cleaning out the closet!!!

it will be goodbye forever to those big old sweaters and jeans, we won't miss them!!!

Way cool! I haven't had surgery yet either, but as cool weather ended this year I started to get excited about kissing those big 'ol sweaters & jeans goodbye forever! I'll probably be donating a bunch of stuff in the next few weeks.

Congrats to you! What a great NSV even before surgery! I love getting rid of old, big clothes- it feels so rewarding. Although sometimes I have a hard time with some of my favorites and I just have to think of all the new favorites that I will be able to buy- and how much cuter they will be! Good luck to you as you continue on with this journey!

There is much joy at my house when cleaning out closets, which I seem to be needing to do about every 3 weeks! Yardsale coming up and I have a full rack of nice clothes. I was in retail for 20 years so I have loads waiting for me to fit into them. THIS IS A BLAST! Congrats to you! think what it will be like after surgery! OH MY!!!

i haven't had surgery yet but i had lost 20 from the preop period. i went from a 20 to 16W/18. Since i'm having my surgery in less than 3 weeks there is nowhere my size will go but down!! it felt sooo good cleaning out my closet.. good bye to the 20's then the 18 then the 16, etc.. gotta make room for my new skinny clothes i'm going to buy can't wait!!

i totally understand about the favorite outfits but then i realize how many cute clothes i couldn't buy cause they didn't have my size. funny thing is i had given my mom my clothes from when i was smaller a few months ago (forgetting the weight loss process i'm about to embark) can i ask for those back? lol i loved those outfits. oh well i guess i just have to shop for new ones!
