Well, another few months, another wardrobe that I got to wear for way too little time. *sigh*. Another massive Goodwill donation.

that's a drag, but its so great to need smaller clothes! Think of how much easier packing for trips will be, Smaller clothes= smaller lighter luggage! I can't wait!

I know the feeling... i have two massive trashbags that need donated. (not nearly as much as you have, but still.. a lot, for me.)

However, some of the clothes I've kept since I was younger.. (i'm 16... i kept a handful of things ia lways hoped i'd be able to fit into again, from when i was 11/12/13/etc...) fit now. so its less shopping.

I'm just wearing all my clothes big, except for shorts/pants. i'm not buying any shirts or anything.. most of them look alright, loose. and if they're toooo loose i can put a belt around my waiste and they're almost like a dress... haha.

Don't forget to claim it on your taxes so that you could get something out of it... LOL

Holy crap! That's a lot of clothing. I don't own that much clothing. Now I'm a bit embarressed by my lack of clothing. Do you at least like clothes shopping, now I mean. I'm not a big fan of it now but I figure when I can buy things that aren't tent like I will enjoy it more.

Yeah that's gonna be me along the way! I went shopping for the first time a few weeks ago and bought a bunch of stuff but I didn't start wearing it until about a week after I bought it and it was already starting to fit looser than in the stores! As of now, it's starting to look a little baggy. I give it no more than 2 months before I have to start over again. I've been trying to hold on to my original shirts as long as possible but after 80 pounds I am looking really ridiculous. They all go lower than my thighs. I guess it's time for the credit card :( :( :(

Ruggie, maybe you should see if someone here wants them. You know how expensive it is... it could really help someone going through the sizes that can't afford the process...
