I've been treating myself to a new wardrobe as time allows. I've bought several new pairs of pants (making sure they don't give me any room to gain weight!).
Don't forget your undergarments! I've been trying one and buying bras but I have to make sure I've found the one I love most before I replace my entire collection. I'm also going to replace all my underwear, but unfortunately I'm between-sizes in my favorite make (and I don't plan on losing more).
Congrats on exceeding your goal! That is fabulous!
Everything! Last time I was in my goal weight, I was an awkward teenager who had been made to believe that curves=fat=BAD by stupid people at school (and I suspect a couple jealous girls :P; while I am very average in looks, I was cuter than some of the "popular" girls and I have an hourglass figure). So, I tended to hide my curves with baggy sweaters. So now I want lovely tops that show my curves in all the pretty colours that suit me: blue, purple, burgundy, fucshia, purple...and probably red! I have very rarely wore red, which is a pity, as my skin and hair colour are suited for it.
Regarding plastic surgery and body treatments, I would definitely go for a treatment to get rid of cellulite, something to tone my body and make it firm, spider vein treatment, boob implants (not much, as I am big) and maybe a boob lift, too. Laser hair removal would be something, too, as it would allow me to go swimming without trouble.

OK admit it, you are like me and want it all too! It's not a crime, we have waited a long time and just want to look good or better.

Indeed! Although I am a bit afraid of the surgeries. So, while I really like the idea, I think I would prefer to limit myself to breasts (I want to be able not to wear a bra, or just wear a thin one for light support). The other surgery I would go through (although it has nothing to do with weight), it's to correct my ears, since they are a bit dumbo-ish, and one of them shows even more than the other, as it was twisted at birth (because of the doctor using a forceps when it wasn't necessary).
I am at goal, and have maintained for 6 months. Today, I cleaned out my closet and drawers!
Donated one large trash bag of shoes, and 4 bags of clothes that either did not fit, or I did not like.
Then I went and bought 2 new cute bras and a 2 piece swim suit. Granted, I'm 52 and I have stretch marks, from having kids, but the bottoms ride just below the belly button and the underwire top rocks! And I also bought a super cute and very back baring Danskin workout top.
Now I'm on a mission for a just above the knee, black skirt. I have one top and a great jacket already.
I work for a veterinarian and I live on a farm, so "wardrobe" really isn't a big deal on a day to day basis. However, it is fun to go find those few, special items, that you can dress up in, fix the hair, put on make up and jewelry, and no one recognizes you!
