But now I have to be!  I went into the attic this weekend and all through my closets and bagged up everything that didn't fit anymore.  Yeah!  Five black plastic garbage bags!!  Of course, that includes clothes all the way up to my highest-ever weight.  And I mean everything.  Even if I just bought it 3 or 4 months ago.  Outta here! 

Of course, now I have to load them in the car and go to Goodwill. 
I think I can, I think I can...

LOL! it was very HARD for me to LET GO of the old me attachments.

When I wound up in jail once years ago....there was an old saying amongst the vets there....STEAL some JAIL GARB when ya get released n change into yer street clothes...so YOU NEVER GO BACK.

I snuck out a blue XXXL L.A. Co Jail shirt....I'll be dang if it didn't work!! I never went back to jail...lmao!! That jail shirt still is hung at the back of my closet after all these years ,-)

Now when it was time for me to PURGE all them years of OBESITY CLOTHES...I kept a COMPLETE SET OF EVERYTHING...chonies, pants, blouse and sweater.......Ive tucked em, except sweater I still like wearin it even tho its super big on me now!, far far away at the top of my closet ..

SO I NEVER GO BACK!! so far so good ,-)

did have to move all the small stuff (tops n shorts esp) to the back for a while...(when I regained dang it!!) but was able to wear it all again....this summer

BREAKING UP is HARD TO DO....but in this case...GOOD RIDDANCE!! ,-)

I have a friend wh is also dieting and purging her closet.  She lives close by so we are filling my garage with out bags of clothes and will have the Salation Army truck come for a pickup soon.  I have almost gone through my entire stash of smaller sizes.  Soon I'll have no choice but to go shopping. :)
