I really didn't know

I have started hanging up t-shirts so they don't get wrinkly and I was running out of hangars and closet space so I went to change over my closet and get my summer clothes I bought last year about 8 weeks post op out of the spare closet thinking they would fit.  I was so proud last year when I bought these clothes and I put the first pair of capri's on and they were way too big, then the shirt and  same thing.  I just looked in the mirror, my haw dropped and couldn't believe it.  I really thought they would fit this year.

 

So I am packing last years summer clothes away, moving my winter clothes to the other closet and now I have way too many hangars.

I thought I had my head around my size but in retrospect I guess a 16 last summer to a 8-10 this year does make a difference.

Oh Dopey Me but a great NSV!!!!!!!

Way to go! It is hard to get your head around it sometimes.  Just don't spend a whole bunch of money on clothes until you've reached your maintenance stage because it's a waste.

Time to go ....Shopping.  I am just 11 weeks out and even though my cloths are seriously droopy on me I am TRYING to hold out so I can minimize the cost of buying new cloths every 2-3 weeks.  its a good problem to have right??

Value Village has become my friend!  It's fun shopping for clothes now - I used to hate it with a passion!  Keep up the fantastic work and enjoy your new look.

Cheers,

Sandy
