Smile NSV: Nothing to wear...because everything was too big!!

I had to do a service learning project yesterday where I was required to dress in business casual attire. I got frustrated while trying to dress because everything I kept trying to wear was too big--and then I had to stop and laugh at myself for being so ridiculous! That is one problem I definitely don't mind having! Even better, what I ended up wearing was something I had purchased a couple of months ago because it was on sale and I figured I would eventually fit into it...well yesterday was eventually!

WooHoo!!! I've been boxing up clothes that are too big, too. Fortunately, I still have plenty of older stuff to work down into. Congrats!

That's great! I can't wait until I'm at that point! I don't plan on buying any new clothes until I hit my goal weight. I still have some jeans that are a wee bit too small for me now, so I'll make due as I get smaller -- might buy a cheap pair of jeans here or there, but no super cute things! I can't wait to toss out everything and start fresh!

YEAHHHH!!! I can just feel it now! LOL Usually your struggling to hide the lumps and bumps and you go through your closet trying to find something that makes you look slimmer....what an awesome feeling that everything was too big! AMAZING! Congrats!

Thank you all so much!! It's such a crazy ride, isn't it? Last night I started a box of clothes that are WAY too big for donation. I still kept stuff that's just starting to get big, otherwise I'd really have nothing to wear. I refuse to buy too much until goal, so I have one pair of jeans that actually fits me well right now. Thanks again everyone!!

hahaha! That made me laugh! I envisioned someone throwing things out of their closet in a hissy because the clothes were too big! The complete opposite of what we're use to doing, throwing them out because they're too small!

Good job rainydays!!!

Don't you just LOVE that! It's amazing to go into your closet and all of your pants are too big. Congrats!
