Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 That's awesome!!! I need to do that soon...probably this weekend and I know there's gonna be lots that doesn't fit. I'll remember your experience and do the same! iv_adb wrote: This week the weather has turned cold, and I turned to my cool weather clothes. I got out a pair of jeans for the first time in months. They used to fit perfectly. Okay, moving on.... A skirt. It zips, but it's tight. I could use it if I wanted to walk like a mummy for halloween. I had quite a pile on the bed before I found something I could wear. Normally this would ahe left me feeling so overwhelmed and defeated, I'd have given up on myself for a time. Instead I just put the clothes that didn't fit away out of sight, and went on with my day. For the first time in years, I feel like I'm on my way back to me. Yahoo!

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 First I would like to say - GOOD for you. That is such a smart thing to do, not only clothes wise but for yourself too. I am finding this (clothes that fit) to be the one thing that is bugging me at this moment. I like wearing the clothes I have bought and made because I know they are the 'right' ones for me. When I go to put something on and its 'snugger' than it ought to be its hard to not be mad about it. I miss not being able to wear that item I have to wonder if I would be equally as upset if the item were too loose to wear attractively?!? I plan on sticking to IE so that I get the chance to find out too. Katcha > > This week the weather has turned cold, and I turned to my cool weather clothes.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 This is so cool! I did the same thing with my closet this year. I even go a step further and take them straight to goodwill. I am worth the extra money to buy clothes that fit and I feel wonderful in. One of my tricks it to buy clothes that are completly interchangeable. I can wake up blind and dress myself lol. That way with the fewest possible pieces I have the biggest possible wardrobe and can throw away things as they start not to fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 I have been stuggling with the idea of buying clothes since I gained weight. Just this last month I bought a couple of things. It's not a lot, but it's a start and I do think it made a difference in how I felt about myself. > > This is so cool! I did the same thing with my closet this year.
