When did y’all start to buy new clothes and get rid of old clothes?

I still have some clothes from when I was 300lbs and still wear them but I’m now 185 so they fall off lol [emoji23]

Can’t seem to get rid of them though 🤷🏽‍♀️

The minute my old clothes fell off my hips and couldn't stay up--even with a belt, is when I bought new clothes. I'm still trying to figure out what my new size is. Lol

All of my bigger sizes, I've donated. All of them.

Hw-273
Sw-226
CW-160
GW-130
Size- 4 or 6, Small in sweats. Large in shirts... Could be a medium. depends on how it's cut or made.

Surgery Date- April 26th, 2017

The first year, weekly. As soon as clothes were too large, they were out of my house.

Keeping larger clothes subconsciously gives you permission to regain. I know now if I regain not only do I have nothing to wear, I gave away a bunch of things I love. So there is no going back.

Get those fat clothes out your house ASAP. They are not helping you.

I got rid of clothing as I moved down two sizes. So for example I got rid of my 22's when I got to an 18 and so on. I'm now a 12/14 depending on brand but I've been siting here for a couple months now.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
