Are still wearing your old/baggy clothes?

I don't wear my baggy clothes unless I am in between sizes. although my step grandma is such a cheapskate thinks I need to keep my clothes even though they were way to big. how dare me buy me anything at all.

Yup, I do that. I ain't gonna buy new clothes now 'cause give it a month or two and they'll be too big. I only buy new bras 'cause that's kinda must.

Yep. They won't order my any new work uniforms until I get down to a large...and as for street chothes, my old ones still look ok, besides I can't afford new clothes right now.

Yeah. I wear old tops as dresses sometimes with boots and a belt or just wear them to bed.

I am slowly replacing my stuff. I get plenty of wisecracks about looking like a bum...I still have my old belt, but i had to punch more holes in it, ha ha.

Yeah most of them I still wear, before I reset my ticker I had lost 50 lbs lol.
However I did get read of the jeans that were starting to look really frumpy!

yup! almost everything i own (including workout clothes) are falling off me! BUT i cant afford new clothes yet- and I'm not done losing. When i get to that point, I'll splurge and buy all new clothes- until then i'll deal with the baggy butts and hoping my yoga pants don't fall off during zumba! :laugh:

I get rid of baggy stuff immediately. Old baggy clothes gave me an excuse to pig out on food cuz, "hey, i still have my old pants, right??" lol For me they have to go to Goodwill. I only wear stuff that is my size from now on. I buy all my stuff on sale/clearance, 2nd hand stores, and Goodwill so it's not a money issue.

I kept the baggy clothes "just in case" I needed them again...but some were way too big to even attempt to wear them. I finally packed everything up and took those to Goodwill so someone could get use out of them. I'd replaced items when I found something on sale...and thank goodness there have been a lot of good sales! I also had smaller sizes from the days I was thinner and some still were good to go...not outdated, but simple things. I never thought I'd fit in them again but held on to them in hopes that I'd drop weight.

I was cured of wearing things I thought were still "acceptable" when a lady I volunteer with said, "I don't mean for you to take this wrong, but those pants are way too baggy...you need some new ones!" :flowerforyou: Bless her!

T-shirts, yes. Jeans, no.

Im lucky in that i kept my smaller clothes so even though theyre a little dated they will do as Im losing weight, plus i wear leggings and my husbands shirts when im just rattling around at home, my bigger problem is important occasions coming up this summer as i dont know what size i will be and i hate leaving shopping to the last minute as well as the cost. I have bought the next size down as achievable for one particular event in 4 months, my daughters graduation, I bought a formal jacket and matching dress and there is a gap of 2 inches at the front of the jacket at the moment haha , trus tme i will get those buttons done up if it kills me , although i sincerely hope i dont look like ive tried to put the skin back on a sausage with the buttons popping off

:happy: For the most part, no!!! Just cleaned out my closet this past weekend and bagged up FIVE bags of clothes. We're talking five lawn and leaf bags! Dropped them off at the local Goodwill store. Looking forward to wearing my "skinny" clothes again and will replace some here and there with new stuff. I wanted to get rid of my baggy clothes, so as not to have an excuse. If I find myself slipping down the road, I'll just have to make adjustments, and get my butt back in gear....I'm not going back to those sizes again!!! :happy:

Sounds like, between you, me and others, Goodwill is well stocked. When I take my "too big" clothes in, I also say a little prayer that whoever needs them will be able to get healthy and lose their weight...and then take the clothes back to Goodwill for someone else.

Yep, totally guilty, but I'm ever so slowly buying some new items. I was told the other day that I really need to get some new jeans because the ones I was wearing looked SO baggy on me, Lol - even with the belt on the last hole, yay! And I second the motion of checking out consignment shops - you can get some great deals on gently used clothing that still look great, without having to spend too much $ - especially if you know you still want to lose more weight.

Unfortunately, yes I am. I didn’t want to spend money on new clothes as I continue to lose weight, but my old clothes are starting to look ridiculous, so I am buying some new clothes as soon as I get a chance and I am sure I will hold on to them far too long as well.

I'm still wearing the baggy stuff, though I've finally been able to buy two new pairs of work pants. I was using safety pins to cinch in the old ones, why don't dress pants have belt loops?? I have no idea where to shop anymore! I always did my shopping at Lane Bryant and was a reliable size there. When I went on the hunt for new pants, NOTHING FIT. I'd try 3 different sizes, every cut/style there was. I tried EVERY single pair of pants at kohl's, target, old navy. Gap trousers were the only thing that worked.

With everything having so much stretch built in, I don't know what a proper fit is anymore. I risked it on a pair of Target pants. I bought them so they just fit, but after wearing them once they were stretched out beyond belief. I usually wear work pants twice before I wash them, those will have to be a once off. Does anyone make pants that can actually make it through the day and retain their shape?? Shopping for new clothes was my biggest motivator, but all I'm finding are cheap stretchy materials. So I make due with my baggy stuff until I get nearer to my goal weight and I'll be more willing to spend money on stuff I know I won't shrink out of.
