chitowngirl 886 Posted July 24, 2012 I'm down about 70 pounds. And I just realized not only was I abusing my body, but damn my poor clothes took a beating. Trying to squeeze into something that is tight as he!!, stretching shirts out, trying not to dry my jeans so they wouldn't shrink, and forget about the chub rub on my pants. I'm just now going down a size, it's not because I haven't lost enough weight, it's because I was always in denial trying to wear clothes that didn't fit properly. Needless to say I am enjoying wearing my clothes, especially now that they fit appropriately. 4 Lauranbob Mc, Aussiegirl, MamaMelly and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
traceyinflorida 499 Posted July 24, 2012 That's funny. I couldn't figure out at first, how I had lost so much weight, but was not in new sizes yet. Then I realized that my clothes had stretched over time as I gained weight. Being overweight is also very abusive to shoes! Mine never last very long, but now that I am slimming down, I am hoping that my favorite pairs will last more than 4-6 months! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Finding MeMe 204 Posted July 24, 2012 You are right, I just gave my favorite sweat suit a proper good bye last month. I wore the mess out of that suit cause it was the only thing that fit. Now I have a good variety. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piplula 709 Posted July 24, 2012 Chitowngirl..you must be my sister from another mister! I did the exact same thing!!!! It's a wonderful feeling to be able to purchase clothes that fit. I am enjoying just going to regular stores and shop..how cool will it be when I can shop in the regular section instead of plus size! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
workingonme 11 Posted July 24, 2012 Very funny. I still have all my plus size. Still can't believe, I will never wear plus size again. Was 22w, now 12-10 regular size. I still go straight to the plus size when I enter the store. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
