    I've actually found a LOT of my cute stuff at Goodwill. Don't be afraid to go thrift shopping! It's cheap and great when you know you're going to be losing more weight anyway.
    I recommend going a couple times a week and check different locations too. It's worth it :D

    I second this. When I was finally forced to replace all of my jeans (they seriously wouldn't stay up, even with a belt), I got four new pairs at Value Village for under $40, and all of them were either brand new or close to new. Same with work pants. I actually found a pair of Eddie Bauer pants that still had the tags on, for $6.99.

    I actually love Goodwill! I can always usually find shirts that are really cute that fit me, but I have a hard time finding pants.

    Catos is good, Fashion Bug is okay.

    I've been buying a lot of my stuff from JC Penney. It's cute and reasonably priced. About 75% of the price of Torrid and LB.

    Kohls always has sales and/or coupons. Goodwill. TJMaxx/Marshalls - I got my fave Columbia hiking pants there for like $15 (online they're at least $80!!), and that's the only item of clothing I'm sad about being too big for me! lol

    And then of course there is the Old Navy Plus online store. And Gap and Old Navy go on sale a lot.

    I have found some stuff in Old Navy that has been XXL that fit but never pants. I have yet to order anything off line. I am so scared to order offline because I am afraid it is not going to fit. My shirt sizes fluctuate. But I guess worst case scenario is to send it back, right? :)

    Thrift stores.
    That's what I did.
    Went from an 18 to a 4. Definitely saved myself money.

    Try Dots too. Their clothes are super cheap and you won't feel as bad getting rid of them when you transition to smaller sizes!!

    I'm shopping mostly at thrift stores until I reach my ideal weight. Otherwise, I shop the clearance racks and different stores. I also have a few dresses that I can't imagine not wearing so I am going to have those taken in.

    I agree! I've had people make flattering comments about my clothes and ask where I got them. They're shocked when I say Goodwill. Hey, you can't go wrong with nice clothes for $3.99.......just sayin. :)

    I like Ross & the VF outlet if I am buying new. I have purchased most of my "transition clothes" second hand. Consignment stores, thrift stores, etc. I have also done some clothing "swaps" with other people I know who are losing weight. I also sell my old clothes to make my money back when I buy new.
