"Lady o' the house" wrote in message ... The last time I was this small was right after my son was born. I threw out a bunch of stuff, but kept about 4 or 5 things that I loved so much I couldn't bear to give away. I plan to wear a dress that I kept (never wore it before because it didn't look right, but DH says it looks great now) probably for the first day of school on Tuesday. In February I gave away most of my 'fat' clothes, but I hung onto about 6 outfits, not because I ever plan to wear them again, but because they were relatively new, expensive, and I don't want to just give them to GoodWill. Anybody know someone in a size 26/28 who needs dressy clothing in great condition? I have a friend who might be that size - she is heavier than I am (she has recently started at weight watchers - her choice). Where do you live - I assume you would have to pack and ship. I could send you the money for shipping and whatever you wanted for the outfits. Send me more info - my email is . I am in San Antonio, TX.

Out went a lot of dress shirts with an inch smaller neck. Out went some pants. Out went my old ski outfit - Jacket and Bib Pants. Out went some suit coats. Out went some outdoor coats. ---------- Then about two or so months later I started Atkins. This week I have been buying some pants and shorts and shirts of the size that I threw out..... because "I'll Never Be Small Enough To Wear That Again!" Late last spring, during the close outs of last Winter's clothes, I bought some in Xtra Large and some in just Large..... Just in case....... While I am sad that I tossed out the old clothes that would now fit...... I am very happy to be that small again. Anybody else go through this? Jim |

fit...... I am very happy to be that small again. Congrats on the weight loss - I did the same thing last year, however, I never got around to taking the bag to the Salvation Army. I'm going to go through it in a few weeks and see if I want any of my "used to be too small" clothes. It's a great feeling! |

Jim I know what you mean, but what I nice reason to need new clothes. For me, my "thin" clothes are so old they should be tossed out. They are out dated...yeah yeah, I know, everything comes back eventually. I'd rather have new clothes, lol. Peggy |

I got rid of a bunch of "I'll never fit into these again" things last October when I was moving, but they weren't clothes that I loved, and I really do have too many clothes. I've gone up and down over the last 20 years or so, and I have clothing from size 8 to size 20. I'm getting rid of some of the larger stuff now, and I've vowed that if I reach my goal and keep it off a year, I'll get rid of all the "fat" clothes. In the meantime, I've gone from size 20-22 to size 14-16, and I have lots more clothes to wear. It's rather a shame that I work at home and my usual outfit consists of T-shirt and jeans. But all my size large T-shirts fit now, when a month or two ago I was restricted to the XLs. |
