Well i know i should be dancing with joy that my clouthes are saggy on me BUT.......
i have this two dresses which were very expensive and looked good on me but i tried to put them on today and they were like a big
tent on me. I will really miss wearing them.

Anyone else experienced this before?

    Take them to a dry cleaners and see if they will take them in it is cheaper than buying new ones until you meet your goal

    Isn't that the part of the awesomeness of loosing weight is to have to go down in sizes? I'd be super excited about that!:happy:

    I got one of my favourite evening dresses taken in at an alteration centre to wear to a ball. It was the best decision ever and the compliments I got were great! Once I reach my goal weight I'll get all my other favourite dresses and work clothes taken in. It's much cheaper than buying new clothes!

    Get down to your local tailor and get them taken in! Then you can enjoy the fact that you're slimmer and look even better in them than you did before. Shouldn't cost much, and it'll certainly be cheaper than buying new dresses.

    If they are good quality you can always look to sell on Ebay and then usethe money to buy something new that fits.

    Finding a great tailor is important. Its like having custom fit clothing!! I get stuff tailored constantly, not because I'm losing alot of weight (at my goal weight) but because I want my clothes to fit perfectly. Sometimes I buy a bigger size because I'm tall and have the waist taken it. If the two dresses are really important to you, I would wait until you reach your goal weight and have them altered. Good job on your progress!!

    Take them to get altered!!! Most places can take in a dress at least 3 sizes, I've done this with many expensive clothes :) and Great job on the weight loss!!!

    Its usually pretty cheap to get them tailored to fit you, My mom did that with all of her work suits.
