When dou you start shopping clothes?

[DivaStyleCoach 89]

Hey Ladies,

Just checking in...actually bought more 'transition' clothes over the weekend, just so I'll have enough to mix and match. I've already got clothes that are two sizes too big (24's) so I'm preparing to either donate or EBay them...

I may donate them - there is a "Dress for Success" chapter not too far away from me, and I know business clothes for full-figured women are often hard to come by.

It's so much fun planning my new wardrobe - and I'm not even banded yet! Only 3 weeks to go!:thumbup:

Good Morning To Everyone. In reading everyone's posts, it's like writing in my diary. I myself need to buy clothes every three months. I agree and experienced a bit of what everyone wrote.

I'm trying to wait till the end of december, 2008 for my next shopping spree. Or maybe I'll save myself a few dollars and taken them in myself. For I'm wearing belts to hold up my pants now. I'm pretty much at goal weight, 30 lbs to go. I can now fit into my whitepants, zip and button them up and feel comfortable in them.

I was in denial about my weight loss,just couldn't believe I was actually losing. To buy fitted clothes then feel and see them get loose on you, is a great feeling.

Thanks for the idea of shopping at consignments shops. I forgot about them. I give my clothings to a womens' shelter. For they need mature womens' clothing a lot. I just gave them about 10 winter coats and a few winter pants, skirts and tops. That made me feel really good.

I just buy the basic colors, black, navy, gray and brown.

Don't deny yourself this feeling every 10, 20, 30 plus pounds you lose. It'll give you incentative to stick to you new life style.

I'm glad I found this thread. Let's keep inspiring each other and getting inspired.
