Default How odd...

So I've lost almost 25lbs so far (I haven't weighed myself in almost two weeks though so maybe it really is 25 now...it's been really humid here and I retain water weight when it's humid so i don't want to get upset at a larger number than i really am). Anywho. I've been noticing a difference in my stomach and outer hip-unfortunately not the inner but progress anywhere is welcom . So anyways. I was about to step into the shower and noticed that my underwear are lose. I don't know why but it never occured to me that as I lost weight I would have to buy new underwear too. haha, pants and shirts? Yeah I expected that. But underwear? I never even considered that I'd have to buy new ones of those too!

I think this shopping trip I'm saving for when I drop another pant size is going to prove pretty expensive. But I don't think I'm going to mind bc the clothes are so much cuter when they're smaller!

I've dropped 25lbs too and my underwear is certainly starting to fall off me! I was complaining the other day that I haven't got a single bra that fits properly anymore either since I'm shrinking so much.

On the one hand it's nice to see things not fitting me anymore but on the other hand it's getting to be expensive replacing everything!

I noticed you retain more water when it's humid. Does this happen to everyone? I had a heavy weigh-in even though I'd been pretty good.

Haha, yeah it just made me laugh bc it's one of those things that just never entered my mind. I'm holding off on buying anything until I've lost some more bc it's just way too expensive to do it everytime something starts to get baggy on me (and I'm really cheap hehe). But congrats on the weightloss!

I don't know if it happens to everyone. But I think it's pretty common? I'm hoping it's not just the two of us!

Baggy underwear is so unattractive and uncomfortable, too. It's fun to buy new underwear because your old underwear is too big. Hurray!!!

haha! I hadn't even thought of this! Underwear also fits weird of me so it didn't occur to me.
