So lately I have been stressing as all my clothes are now too big (yay!!) and I don't have the money to replace them.
Well.... I just tried on all my clothes I wore in college and they FIT!! sure some of them may be skin tight and therefore a bit unflattering but that's not the point!

I AM WEARING THE SAME CLOTHES I WORE IN COLLEGE WOOHOOOOOO

So far that means I have gone from a size 18-20 to a 12-14 :) yewwww! (ps the 14 I am wearing is a bit big so I would say I am more a size 13!!! ) :D
:D

    That's awesome!! Way to go! :-)

    I'm getting to that point myself. I'm 5'9, large framed and started at a size 20. Now I'm in a 16 or tight 14. My goal is a size 12. I wish I had saved more of my smaller clothes... but seeing as I was 15 years old the last time I wore a size 12 (that was 19 years ago!!) I figured I would never be in that size again. We'll see!

    Wow! Congrats! That's amazing. I'm in the same boat. All my clothes are hanging off me but I can't afford new ones. Think I have some old clothes from my high school days lying around somewhere but I'm a long way from fitting into them and they might be quite disastrous, fashion wise.

    That is awesome! Hope you still have some cute things from that time period in your life! Haha. College was only 3 years ago for me but there are a lot of things I would never wear again from then. :laugh:

    That's awesome! And hey, always remember if you have more weight to lose, go thrift store shopping. Cheap and you can find some pretty decent stuff.. And it doesn't really matter anyway because it's only temporary clothing!

    I was just going to say this about going to thrift stores. I am not quite to this point yet mine are getting baggy but not un bearable baggy but I will be hitting some thrift stores up or my friend said she has a bunch of jeans I could have she doesn't like them.

    Awesome! If I could fit my high school clothes, I would be wearing bell bottoms and love beads. Groovy.
