So I have a question about clothing.. What do you all do about your rapid clothing size changes? It would be impossible to buy clothes that fit until you have leveled out.. So how do you find fitting clothes?

I shop the SALES... I went to Lane Bryant during one of their clearance sales and bought I think 14 items for $80.00... which is about thrift store price! I got everything in size 14/16 or 18/20 which was a size smaller than what I was at the time. I also frequent the thrift store and if I find something super cute I buy it as long as it's anywhere from a size 14-20.

I'm not purchasing a TON of stuff, I'm just keeping my eyes open.. and the clothes I have I'm definitely wearing out quickly because I'm wearing them so much, but that's OK, hopefully I'll shrink out of them before they become thread bare!

Plus sizes generally have a 30lb or so spread. So you can get away with a not so perfect fit. Also shop sales and buy basics that can be mix and matched. There is a giveaway section here too.

There is a plus size consignment clothing store about 30 minutes from me. I sell my too large items and purchase lower sizes from the same shop. I have to buy a few new items but not many.
