I wieghed in this morning and at 4 almost 5 months out I am half way to goal.  I can't believe it.  I am happy yet I am scared....I have been overweight for the past 25+ years.  It will feel strange to be able to shop in regular stores again.  I know I'm down in my clothes I have bought a couple new tops in a Xl down from a 3X and a month or so ago I had bought a 2x capri jean so I'm probably down even further but not ready to spend money on clothes yet.  I have a pile of clothes some even brand new ready for a consignment shop and then I have another group ready for goodwill or salvation army.  While I am scared of losing all this weight, not sure why I'm overwhealmed with fear, I am hoping that by the end of October I have lost another 20#.

ME TOO!! Almost exactly half way, give or take .8 of a pound. I, too have a HUGE pile of clothes for a consignment shop, if I cuold find one that would take large size clothes! and another only worthy of a woman's shelter or good will or something! I added some clothes to the pile last night, in fact, when I found a storage tote full of clothes, from over 5 years ago... Pre marriage, pre pregnancy... Some stuff fits now, other stuff, too big, right to the pile. I was wearing 5X or size 34, I'm down to 2X or 22/24. It's a great feeling, isn't it? I'm wearing some bigger tops, just so I don't have to go out and buy a buncha new stuff yet...  but I have picked up a few summer clearance tops... cheap!  There's always that little devil in your head telling you to hold on to stuff cuz you're gonna gain some back, but ya know what, SCREW that guy,... I'm getting rid of it!
