And my closet is bare...

Having gone from a 18w to size 12 in 2 months, I decided it was time to clean out my closet. Two Goodwill trips later, what do I have in my closet? Two pairs of jeans, three shirts, and a bathrobe. Makes getting dressed in the morning easy. I guess I need to go shopping....soon.

LOL.... similar story here....  About everything I had in my closet four months ago has gone to goodwill or friends.

The only remaining items I still have are my ties.  Pretty much had to replace everything else right down to my underwear.

Hi MMmom,

Congrats on the empty closet! I understand the feeling. My best NSV so far was having so many clothes to give away that the local Salvation Army came to pick them up. Enjoy the shopping but don't buy too much too fast. You will be even smaller soon!

Best wishes for your continued success, Katy

hey that is awesome., I have three sizes in my closets, top sizes are gone. Middle sizes headed that way on to regular misses sizes. Can't wait until my closets are empty too. Keep up the good work.

Congrats on your bare closet.  My closet is heading that way too.  I had from sizes 10 to 18 in my closet so I didn't have to do much shopping during my weight loss period.  But now that I'm so close to my goal I'm in a size 8 and can fit some size 6's.  So I barely have any clothes in my closet.  I will also need to go shopping soon.  Shopping is so much more fun at a smaller size.

That is very cool. 

I took 2 bags to Goodwill on Saturday. 

Each layer of clothes that go out the door represent fat clothes I will never see again!

I heard that some people thrift shop while they are losing to avoid spending alot of money on clothes ...but now you have a legitimate reason to go on a shopping sprees

I'm barely going through the sizes in my closet at all.  I'm still wearing one shirt I wore before surgery, and am wearing only one size down in pants.  They're getting baggy, but the waist still fits and the smaller size is too small.  I used to be smaller than this when I weighed this much.  I guess I'm just put together differently now.  Buh!  I only have 5 things in my donate box and a closet FULL of too small clothes.

Maybe I should try on more of them this weekend, but I don't want to get depressed.

Even my sons have more clothes than I do!  I've started raiding my husbands side of the closet. 

I took his sweat pants that were getting tight on him.  Instead of buying yet another nightgown, I've started wearing one of his undershirts (he gets extra long ones thank goodness:) )  His sweatshirts are now mine, along with most of his loungey long sleeved T's!  Lucky for me, he doesn't like to get rid of clothes, bad for him that he has outgrown them!  I'm hoping that as I slowly start making meals more tailored to me, and less to them that he might drop a few pounds himself.

 

Since surgery I've gone from a 22/24 to a very loose 14 in pants.  I'm going to hold off buying 12's as long as I can!  I shop my local FB yard sale site, and have gotten all of my pants that way!  Saves me a boatload.
