Just do it- throw out the fat clothes

Just my 2 cents...

I saw on another post people putting their fat clothes in storage "just in case".  Don't do it.  Burn them, donate them, just get rid of them.  If your pants get a little snug let the solution be adjusting and dropping the snug off of your waistline- not pulling out a size bigger.  It will be far cheaper in the long run to eat healthy then keep the clothes thinking you may save a bit down the road.  So you don't want to ditch them because you love them?  Find new clothes that you love, and love to be skinnier in.  Nothing good can come from saving your fat clothes imho.

I agree Two of my family members are amazed with my weight loss and asked me for my old clothes (which were more new than anything) so I donated it to them. Which was awesome cause I made soo much room in my closet and drawers for new new size 5/7s and small & medium tops. Shopping is soo much fun now

I am 5.0 also. As a matter of fact, I have noticed there are quite a few shorties on this board.

I am 6'2'' when I stand up straight ;)  I see that you are tall too.  I was so excited last week I almost peed myself in the store... Eddie Bauer has now made the inseam of their "long" slacks 36 inches and carries them in the store!!!!  I also just found out yesterday that a store called Delias carries inseams up to 37 inches, and a brand of jeans called Not Your Daughters Jeans goes to 35 inches.  This is big news in my world!!

Are the NYDJ jeans worth the high cost?

When at goal... Yes they can be. They are designed to be incredibly flattering, and hold things in all the "right places" with almost a built in shape wear effect.

I have a number of friends I sent looking for them who fell in LOVE.
