    I had two items already in my wardrobe I wanted to fit back into, a pair of size 14 (UK) skinny jeans and a dress that I had kept since my brother's wedding 20 years ago! It's a classic style and I always hoped I would one day be a size 12 to wear it again. Well, the jeans fit now so I decided to give the dress a try, and it fits over my hips and stomach, tight but it fits - but there is no way on this earth it's ever going to fit round my boobs now! It didn't occur to me that the 23 year old size 12 me wouldn't be the same shape as the 43 year old size 12 me! So I'm afraid I will probably never achieve my goal to wear that dress. But, I have also always pictured a red dress like in the Special K adverts, so when I get to a 12, I'm buying a figure hugging red dress.

    I have a dress that I wore on my 21st birthday almost 17 years ago. Not sure if I would ever wear it again in public but I'd sure like to be able to get into it just to say I can.

    I want to fit into my wedding dress again, just to know I can.... After 17 years- still have the guy, still have the dress, still have the love!

    Old pairs of jeans that I haven't worn in a few years. And for when I reach my ugw, a huge shopping list.

    I have this mini skirt I wore about 10 yrs ago...not sure if it's out of style though. Its a cute black corduroy skirt...but I'm 33 and not sure if I'm too old to wear it or not. Still love it though!

    Every time I go down a size I buy the next size down, and hang it in my closet, it gives me a great indicator of where i am at, even when the scale is being stubborn, and nothing is as awesome as zipping that amazing dress after not being able to even get it halfway closed!

    I wanna fit back into my jean coat. I wore it from 7th grade until my first year of college. I was 145 the last time I could wear it without popping the zipper.

    I also have a few holyclothing dresses that I wanna fit back into.

    Actually, lets just say that I wanna fit into all my old clothes and leave it at that. Well, all my clothes from 12th grade on,, because before that I was hovering at a size zero-3 and being that small made it hard to find clothes that fit.

    No clothes are my goal clothes

    Haha! Me too! But can I say something, unrelated? Your weight loss is absolutely amazing and inspirational, and you are absolutely GORGEOUS. Just thought I'd say. Have a nice day :flowerforyou:

    I have plenty of brand new clothes that I've bought & never wore because I got home and it was uncomfortably tight. I also have a pair of jeans with the tag on that I bought like 5 years ago that I hope to be in very soon! =)

    Sort of.
    I bought a really expensive horse show jacket, that was originally $928 dollars and I got it for $371. However I knew I still had at least 15 pounds to lose so I couldn't buy it to fit (I think it'd be a difficult jacket to tailor) so had to guess on what size I would be at the end of my weight loss. So I am crossing fingers that it will fit perfect when I am done. I will try it on from time to time during my weight loss and see how I am doing.
    Good news is that since I got such a good deal on it I should be able to sell it for the same or more than I bought it for if it happens not to fit when I am at my goal size

    I want to wear cute panties again. I have been wearing granny panties for way too long! Oh and I have a dress I bought 15 years ago that I never got a chance to wear. It's simple and still stylish and I would love to slink around in it.

    I added you as my friend, Feel free to message me anytime! You'll get to where you want to be, as long as you really want it and the drive is there. I STILL get down on myself with these last 15 or so pounds to lose, but I know eventually something's got to give and the work WILL pay off. And the work is SO worth it!

    I don't have goal clothes but I purchased two different smaller-sized bras when they were on sale a couple months ago. I've shrunk into one smaller size size now and hoping I guessed right on the next size. A gal could go broke just replacing bras!

    A pair of 559 34/32 Jeans.

    I've had them in my closest for over a yr. I'm within an inch in my waist. Hopefully wearing them out by the end of summer.

    I have some size 10 jeans from about 10 years ago. They were too big then, but now I'd be lucky to zip them around my thigh! :angry: I have them hanging on my bedroom wall and I can see them from the entrance to my kitchen. So whenever I think about rummaging for a snack, I see them and ask if I'm really hungry or just bored. Usually, just bored. I'm determined they'll fit again someday!! :bigsmile:

    Oh, and bras! I have tons of bras in my dresser, but I hold them up to my chest now and wonder how they ever fit me before! Again...someday.

    I do but in a funny sort of way. I'm hanging on to one pair of my size 52 uniform pants. I will soon need to replace them with 50s because they are getting a bit loose. Now, when I get discouraged, I'll put on the size 52s just to see how far I've come.

    Several pairs of guess jeans, size 27.
    A few other brands, size 6.
    Haven't worn since Fall 2011, hope to be in them by summer.

    And a lil black dress, size S.

    Hopefully soon.

    I NEED to buy some smaller clothes. All my pants are falling off me. I bought some semi-goal pants that were two sizes lower, but I fit them almost immediately.

    My goal clothes is to be sizes smaller than what I have been for the last decade and a half. Ultimately my goal is to get down to my high school graduation size (16 IIRC) which would still make me pretty big, but I just can't imaging being smaller than that.

    Yah I'm kinda a clothes hoarder, not really bad though, just I keep clothes and recycle them. I got a bin labeled "fat clothes" "really fat" and "skinny". Anything I really like I sort and keep. I figure I'll be in it again eventually, why waste money. I would get an entirely new wardrobe though if I got to my ultimate goal weight of 150. I'd have to.

    "black skinny jeans size 6...can now get them on and do them up....working towards being able to breath at the same time :) "



    Boy do I remember that! What am I saying remember, still there, but remember really pushing it in my teenage years!

    Now, my dream isn't just the pair of jeans, but more the whole outfit. I have always been an outdoorsy type and my goal "vision" is to get down to that pair of jeans where my butt is nicely round, but the tummy flat and waist nice and curvy (inward), with the cute plaid top that is actually tucked in and the whole thing looks outdoorsy sexy cute. I was blushing when I told my 33-year-old son that when he was watching me pick up a 2-sizes-smaller plaid top to hang in my cubboard :) But I'll get there, of course, the wild 6'4" wide-shouldered mountain man that comes to claim in his big muscular arms will have to be at least in his 50's :)

    My 25th wedding anniversary is next February. I would love to be able to put my wedding dress on and look into my husbands eyes and tell him I love him as much as the day I married him.
