I wished I had saved some of my bigger clothes from last time I lost weight. Yeah, yeah . . that time was thee time and never, ever was I going to gain any weight back. Welp, here I am. I'm beyond annoyed that I had to go buy a pair of 16 jeans. I have several size 12's that are too tight right now. Once I get back into them . . . and once they get too big . . . I"ll think about getting rid of these 16's. I'll probably keep them, though, so when I'm at goal I can put them on and go 'wow, you were huuuge!!! Don't go there again, dork!'

I just had another "closet cleaning" session today, and got rid of MORE bigger-than-me-now clothes. It feels GREAT to try something on, look in the mirror and think..."Wow, this is TOO BIG for me now!" - so, nope, no keeping of the big clothes...

Bye-bye XL!
Bye-bye L!!!
Helloooooo MEDIUMS!!!!!

ROFL!! That's exactly what happened to me. D'OH! I got rid of everything big. Then as I expanded outwards, I wished I had them. Unlike many here, I avoided the camera with such a passion, if there are any pictures of me out there, they are without my knowledge or permission...Plus, I wonder if the ability to hold and see these big, ugly things will help me stay on track this time around. This time I mean it. I won't ever, ever, ever go there again. Three is the magic number.

I have a lot of before pictures so I have those as a reminder.

Since I remember the size I used to wear, I sometimes grab that size at the mall just to remind myself how far I've come!

Just took a boatload of "fat" clothes to the secondhand store this weekend. Felt great! Unfortunately, it means that I'm now stuck with my one pair of fitting pants and the few skirts that still fit me (with tights) until I go home in ten days.
