Last night I was cleaning up the bedroom, and going through my clothes to find all my fall clothes, and start putting away some of the summer ones. As I went, I was moving some things to the sell/donate pile, and some to the trash pile. I was also trying things on as I went to see how the fit, and if they're worth keeping.

I think you all see where this is going...

One pair of jeans that haven't fit in over 9months fit again.
Two great jackets (one hasn't fit in a year, one hasn't fit in 6months) fit again.
And a bunch of sweaters I had put in the "maybe when I lose a few pounds" part of the closet are back in the "stuff I wear" part of the closet.

Yahooooooo!

Thanks everyone - it's sooo encouraging to see some changes off the scale. I can't wait to wear the clothes that have been living in the back of my closet.

Don't you love it when you get a new wardrobe right out of your own closet, for free? Good job!

That's awesome!!! My sister gave me a bunch of her old clothes she couldn't fit anymore. She lost a ton of weight this past year and figured I could use them along my weight loss journey vs. buying new clothes. LOTS of nice things and I was even able to fit a pair of pants she got from Aeropostale!!! Wooot!
