This is actually an NSV, but here goes: I went to the back of my closet a few days ago to get out my Christmas clothes so I could wash them and get them ready for the Holidays. I tried on a sweater...no go! Tried on another...same thing! Then, I got excited and tried EVERYTHING on.....NOTHING FITS!!! I have never been so happy that my clothes don't fit!

I promised myself that I wasn't going to buy any new clothes until I reach my goal weight and I'm sticking to it! So what if I don't have "Christmas clothes" to wear this year?!? I'm LOSING WEIGHT!!!!!

Thank you guys for being the kind of friends that support and not judge!

    Yeah! That is a good feeling. Just think of how many deals you will find after Christmas!

    Awesome! That's a great NSV! I'm pretty wearing my smallest jeans in my closet right now and they are starting to get loose.

    You can always get some cheap stuff at a thrift store. No sense spending lots of money on clothes that will only fit for a little while. Congrats!

    If you're going to be with family, I would wear the exact same thing from last year, show up (with back-up, fitting clothes) and be like "You remember this from last year? Yeah. It's that big on me now." :D

    I tossed all my fat clothes, and little by little - everything must GO!

    I am not that person, and I look like a guy wearing a tent.

    If you can go to any "second hand" stores you can pick up some nice fitting clothese pretty cheap. Last time (1999) when I lost over 50 pounds, my aunt introduced me to this method of shopping- it is amazing how nice of clothes you can find so cheap!!!

    Haha me too, I keep using the same jeans over and over again because nothing more fits! It's an awesome feeling

    Congrats on your NSV!!

    Way to go! That is the greatest feeling. Today I had on a pair of pants that were way to small when I started in September. Like hard to get up and about 2 inches away from being buttoned! Today they were actually a little big :) Keep up the FANTASTIC work!
