    I have a new pile on my bedroom floor of trousers to get put away that are too big - it feels good

    Don't PUT them away.............THROW them away.........you ain't gonna need them no more!

    Great NSV!!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Not that brave yet - maybe soon :flowerforyou:
    Been there, I was so worried about putting the weight back on that I hung onto my too big clothes. Well, I put the weight back on (and then some) This time around as I shrink out of stuff I'm getting rid of it, it's too easy to ignore the pounds creeping back when you can easily find something to wear.
    Congrat's on your NSV! WTG!!

    I wouldn't say that's a small NSV - it's an impressive achievement! You deserve that victory dance :smile:

    That's an achievement LOL

    So much nicer to be throwing out clothes that are too big than clothes that are too small - I sorted out my 'too big' stuff this week and took it to our local clothes recycling yard - 27kg of clothes, got a little bit of money back on them too!

    This was the first time ever I've thrown out clothing that's too big - it's ALWAYS been the other way round, and it felt good, because it gave me an added incentive that I cannot go back into those clothes because they simply aren't there anymore!

    Have fun going through your wardrobe again in a few weeks for the next round of 'too large' clothes!

    I have played on the weight loss roller-coaster for YEARS!!! This time I made the conscious decision to THROW AWAY anything I shrunk out of :) AS I SHRUNK OUT OF IT. I didn't even keep a pair of "fat jeans" for a future picture to hold up by my skinny self. I had always kept the big cloths "just in case" because I wasn't brave, but what it enabled me to do was to have a "fall back into" wardrobe for when I gained weight. It was like I didn't believe in myself and my ability to stay healthy. This time - as I gave clothes away - I stayed motivated - AND - when I started slipping back into old habits I realized VERY QUICKLY that if I didn't get back on track I was going to have to buy NEW clothes in those dreaded sizes again. Since I had NO DESIRE whatsoever to do that (much less be able to afford to do it) that became my motivating factor to push me through the week or two of stupidity!

    So get rid of those clothes, believe in yourself and your ability to not only lose the weight, but to keep it off! You are very much worth it and capable of many more NSV in the future!! Way to go! Keep up the great work! :D

    My husband has a box labeled "don't go there again". When I have clothes that have gotten too big they go in the box. His daughter comes out (about 50 lbs heavier than I am but definately on the right track) and goes through the box for clothes that will work for her. We BOTH get NSV!!!!!

    That is NOT a small NSV at all! It is a really important one! It shows you that you are doing the work, you are seeing results, and you might as well keep all of your "too small" clothes that you still like because you're gonna need them! Maybe not this week or next, but all in good time! Good for you! I used to have a closet full of "I wish I could wear these again" clothes that were too small. Funny thing, now they are all too big! Same dilemma - nothing to wear - except instead of the desired clothes being too small they are all now too big! Keep up the good work and you'll have the same happy problem! You'll be doing the happy dance night and day! = D
