    I have been avoiding purchasing any new clothes, as I am sure I am not done losing weight yet, but all of my jeans and shirts fit so big. I tried a Salvation Army but they didn't have anything bigger than a 2xl shirt or a 42 waist. Not sure exactly what I needed yet, I went someplace Familiar. DXL (formerly Casual Male XL), or as I like to call it, "The Big and Fat Store". I was a little shocked, and a lot giddy when I found out why my 52 waist jeans and 5xl tops were so big. I need a 46 waist and a 3xl shirt. BOOM! Happy times, folks!

      Good job! I struggle with the same thing as I have dropped 5 sizes so far. The last set of pants I bought I got a little snug so they will eventually fit well in the next 4 weeks or so. Plus pants nowadays tend to stretch out after wearing them all day anyway. Have fun buying smaller clothes :-)

      I buy only what's necessary and even then it has to be on clearance. I just ordered 3 new bras, 2 dresses (under $10ea) and more gym clothes. Once I'm into straight sizes I'll probably hit the thrift shops.

      Congrats! Buy clothes from Goodwill or any thrift stores until you hit your goal weight. also, make sure of the clearance racks at Walmart, Citi Trends for example. I can't wait until I can start buying smaller clothes :)
