clothes in my closet

[Guest guest]

I haven't been really following this thread, as I've been away. But,

I just had to mention that I have a bunch of clothes in my closet

that don't fit me ... yet. ;o) They're a size 8-10, which is what I

was when I had released my 25 lbs in 2005. Much as these particular

clothes tend to depress me at times (since I can't currently fit

into them at all!), I also find them to be good motivation at other

times. I'll see them and think, " Okay, I REALLY wanna fit into that

again, so what do I need to change so that I'll be on that path? "

There is just NO WAY I'm throwing out/giving away those clothes! I

spent a small fortune in 2005 replacing my wardrobe due to my weight

loss! I was assured I wasn't going to go back up, since I'd

basically reached my " natural size " via IE. BUT, I also didn't

figure in the fact that I'd not worked on my emotions, and so I

ended up sinking back into old habits that put ALL of the weight

back on.

Irregardless, this time I know better, and I'm using those clothes

to motivate me. I am just going to keep working at this (since it's

going to be a lifetime thing, anyway), and I WILL fit into those

again some day. ;o)

That's just MY take on things. ;o)
