I alter my clothes until I can go no further. It's not as hard as you all are probably thinking. Jeans are tough but possible. Khakis are easy...you just lose your pockets!!!!

I cant stop buying....I love to shop and find it alot more fun now that I can look at a size 16 and buy it..and take it home and it fits....I gave all my "too big clothes" away to a good friend. I felt kinda bad...like I was saying Im thinner than you ...so here's my fat clothes...I gave them to her and said....If you can use them....great If not pass them along...she keep them all.. I just didnt want to hurt her feelings....
I have since replaced all 20 pairs of jeans ....with 20 more size 16....lol...and yes im crazy I know.....I need to stop....maybe when these get too big...I will shop more responsibly.( or at least buy a new sewing machine to take them in...btw DH never suspects a thing....hehehe....

at approx 30 lbs and still wearing same pants.

Of course that means i must have been really streching to get into them (42) 30lbs ago.. as they fit loose but comfortably...

Maybe by christmas i can get into a smaller size of pants..

Lot of good clothing ideas. So far, I just Keep fitting into what I kept from the past. Even though I've lost almost 30 pounds, I have kept my "big" clothes. Can't seem to get rid of them. They are so worn they are only good for rags, but they do inspire me. I can see where I was before I started lc. One day at a time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In the fall, I really need to lose about 20 more pounds to get into long sleeve shirts of the past. Must wait and hope!
