So since joining MFP, I have gone from 223 to my current weight as of Tuesday of 205 and today I officially got rid of a pair of my size 18 khaki pants that I wear for work!! I have not decided how I want to recycle them, as I don't really want to throw them out but they are very worn with a rip in one knee and frayed at the bottom! But yay!!!!!

    Congrats! I was going to say donate them, but if they're that worn...I would keep them so you can do a comparison photo when you get to your goal weight :)

    Congrats! From experience, I'd say to keep them. Five years ago, I lost 55 lbs. I remember my largest pair of jeans (size 16) and I really wish I had kept them so that when I reached my goal (size 4), I could lay my skinny jeans on top of them and take a picture! My vote? Keep them until you reach your goal and snap a picture to document your success! THEN toss them! :) Keep up the great work!

    Do you sew? Maybe you could make a cute bag? Or small pillow case? I do this with shirts that my kids out grow. That way they get to keep their favorite shirts and I get to make it useful. It would always be a great reminder for you if it's visually accessible most of the time. Plus you get some really cute stuff out of pants you don't ever want to wear again!! :tongue:

    Congrats on the weight loss!!!!

    I felt the exact same way when I got out of my size 20 and back into my 18s. Now my 18s are feeling a little loose and I'll be on cloud 9 when I can wear 16s again. It's been at least 6 or 7 years! Keep up the good work. You're doing such a great job.

    Congratulations! It's a great feeling to go down a size. When I went from being a 14 forever down to fitting into the 12 you almost couldn't get me out of the dressing room.
