Yesterday, I got my first comment from someone about how they noticed I had lost weight. We usually have to wear kind of baggy clothes for our uniform, but yesterday was our business casual day, so I can wear something a little more form fitting. I also had to breakdown and buy new dress pants yesterday because my other ones would not stay up and (size 16). I got size 14, but even those are a little loose! Any tips where I can find cheaper dress pants? I see having to buy more new pants in my future! :#

    I like the discount places like Ross, Marshals or Bell Outlets.

    thrift stores and off-price places such as Ross, TJ Maxx, Marshalls, etc. Great places to find new work pants and jeans for cheap, especially when you are still losing! congrats!

    You dont want to invest $$$ while traveling downward. Check out thrift stores. They've been great for me!

    Walmart discount racks... they have the occasional dress pant - sometimes for as little as $5.00. It doesn't have to last forever - since you will shrink out of it, soon, anyway. Good Luck.
