TexasNurseMom 5 Posted March 3, 2011 I am a nurse and wear scrubs all the time. At work last night I was told to get some new dang clothes! They said I looked like I had on a droopy diaper bc my pants were so big! But they said it in a loving supportive way. Question, at what point did others buy new clothes? I hate to spend money now when I am only 1/4 of the way to my goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hate to spend money now when I am only 1/4 of the way to my goal. I got the same comments from my family. Luckily, I was a yo-yo so I have several different sizes stored away. The only problem is that they're a little outdated fashion-wise. I also don't want to spend money on clothes at this point. I'm also having a problem parting with the stuff that's too big. I just can't get over the idea that I need to save them "just in case". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess_Gottalose 1 Posted March 4, 2011 I went to the local thrift store/goodwill store and bought my "going through" clothes... I didnt want to spend a lot on clothes i was only going to wear a few weeks... I carried them home washed them and they worked good! Once I get closer to my goal weight i will go on a shopping spree!!! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PackersFan 4 Posted March 4, 2011 I found that I could get away with too-big shirts much easier than the baggy pants. Someone at work told me I have a "poop sack" in my pants. I also had some smaller sized clothes stored away... but the pants were way out of style and I can't use them. I've lost 50 pounds and I'm going to have to break down and buy a couple of pairs of pants just to get by. Great problem to have! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
