You know. The one that didn't fit right when you bought it. You wore it a few times just because you felt obligated to. Then put it back on the hangar to wear "someday" when you got smaller.

Today is Someday.

I'm wearing that shirt today. I like the way it fits. It's a little tight around the arms so my biceps and triceps are on display but not in a tacky way.

This shirt is going into the "rotation"

    Great job. I'm waiting for "that" shirt, too. I bought a whole bunch of new ones at the size I typically thought I could wear before, but they've proven too small. So I'm hoping to bring those shirts into the rotation someday. :-)

    It really didn't hurt all that bad, just my pride, and an opportunity at self depreciating humor!!

    Yes, when I hit my goal weight I will probably need a new wardrobe. There's only so much you can bunch up your pants in the back before you start getting into the fashion faux pax range.

    Of course, I won't have to go to the Big & Tall Section to buy those clothes.

    That's fantastic!! (the shirt, not the head+bar thing :tongue:)

    I was just marveling at something similar. I'm wearing a nice, new, 2 sizes smaller pair of gray slacks I bought about a month ago (yeah my clothes were falling off me too). But when I got them home, they were too snug to wear to the office. I'm not 20 yrs old yanno? I wore them a couple pounds later, with a longer top and again today. I noticed this afternoon that the waist has some extra space and the legs are getting a bit drapey. /happy dance

    I'm thinking you definately will need a new wardrobe before you even get to goal weight. And you'll definately deserve it too!!

    Today I'm wearing a shirt that I bought right after I graduated college. It was included in my first purchase of proffessional clothes. It's still in really good shape...well because I got too fat to wear it much.

    Now it fits better than it did when I bought it.
