Closets and drawers cleaned out!

Jun 11, 2011

I have been trying to save on to my clothes for as long as possible, only because I haven't saved a lot of money to spend on new clothes.  But with almost 80 pounds gone, there just really wasn't anything left that didn't either hang on me, or fell off completely. 

I've spent the last three weeks methodically gong through my closets and drawers, getting rid of my underclothes first, then my professional work clothes, then pants and tops, T-shirts and finally my jackets.  I didn't realize I had so much in clothes, nor did I realize how much it would take to fully replace it all!  Not, that I'm complaining, per se; I'm thrilled to be in large size tops and size 10-12 jeans.  But when I started this journey, of all the things I thought about that would have to change in my life, I just never thought about the fact that EVERYTHING in my cloests and drawers would have to go.  Kindda sad in that my husband and I usually bought matching T-shirts in every place we visited, and those had to go - just can't wear XXLs anymore.  But, we will have fun replacing them with new shirts from new destinations we travel to, and those travels will be so much more enjoyable now that I feel healthier!
