So I was cleaning out my bedroom today and decided to go through my clothes finally. Why hold on to those big clothes when I will never be that big again???? You should see the huge pile of stuff I have to ger rid of. SOme of it made me a bit sad because it was stuff I really liked, but I can't wait to start shopping for the new smaller stuff. I had alot of fun trying stuff on and seeing how differently it fits now and how huge some of it is. I am trying to only buy stuff second hand or clearence now because stuff isn't fitting right for very long. Just wanted to share the joy!!!

Closet-cleaning can be fun!

I've made a lot of trips to the Goodwill drop off on this long journey, and I feel like not having those clothes is losing a 'weight' from my mind - even a few that I really loved I don't miss...I just hope someone is enjoying them.

Too bad we can't do a virtual clothes swap - like, can anyone fax me a pair of size 14 black slacks? Anyone need a lovely XL baby blue sweater....but with the way technology changes, we'll probably have a clothes materializer/dematerializer before we know it...

Happy shopping -

Kim--Thank you!! I have lost about 36lbs, hoping to hit my 40 lbs mark very soon!! I have gone down from a size 26 to a 18/20 or 16/18 depending on the clothes! Last time I did measurements I had lost 38 inches in total.

Wow congrates on the weightloss. I can't wait to start shrinking in size and get back into my 18 clothes. I don't have that many big clothes to wear. All my clothes are size 18. I'm size 22 now (USA's 20).

Congratulations!!! Isn't this the greatest feeling ever?? I love it when I pack away a pair of pants because they're too big and fit into another smaller one
