I had to try on three different outfits this morning to find one that fit.... they were all too big! I know I shouldn't be complaining, but I hate clothes shopping and I REALLY liked the clothes that are too big! The pants I bought at the Goodwill in August (I don't want to spend a lot until I am at my goal weight) and I knew they were getting bigger, but they looked really saggy today. And the Coldwater Creek jacket and jersey I had pressed to go with them hung on me like sacks! And it is too bad because I love the jacket. I guess I will give it to my Mom.

I finally ended up wearing a new plain black top I bought at Fashion Bug a few weeks ago and another pair of Goodwill pants (Liz Claiborne) that still fit okay. It looks like I will be asking for clothes (or giftcards) for Christmas!

Sorry to sound braggy, but it feels great that my "newer, slimmer" clothes are getting big! Anyone else having a similar problem?? ..................P

Good for you! What an accomplishment! As far as problems go, I sure wish I could share that one with you! Maybe in a few months!

Congratulations!

You are having the right attitude for sure. Give away those you are getting too slim to wear. Way to go!

I'd love to be having that same problem for sure.

Congratulations! I am having a similar problem and luckily NY & Co. is having some really great sales so I was able to get some new stuff for work. I held off on buying new pants until they literally were falling off of my body, but after I almost mooned everyone on the bus on my way to work I decided I might need to invest in a few pairs. :laughing:

I am having that issue today. I have this pair of pants (three of the same actually) that I love. The fabric is soft, they sat nicely at my belly button and they were the perfect length to go with my really comfy heels. Today I put them on and they are sitting on my hip bones, so the crotch is mid thigh and I am walking on the back of them since they are now too long. And they way the waist is sitting, my pedometer is weighting down the extra fabric and leaning forward so I am not getting a good step count.
