I'd love to be able to clothes shopping in most clothing shops. I'd also like to be able to buy cheaper clothing. Clothing is usually pretty expensive in my size.
Sounds silly but when I reach my goal weight I don't want to buy anything in particular, rather, I want to fit into these old L.E.I. flare/boot cut jeans that I bought and wore when I was 140lbs. They are about 10 years old and one of the few items I kept from my thinner days. I grew (about 2 inches) since then, so they will be short but I would love to be able to say I fit in them. If I ever get in them and can button them, you betcha I'll wear them outside even if they are not exactly in fashion.

I have a pair of L.E.I. Shorts I held onto from when I was 145 that I wanna get into also! I doubt mine are still fashionable but I have held onto them since 1996!
Hrm...well, first off I'm buying all new pants...mine are all currently falling off of me. After that, I'd like to get a nice slinky "little black dress" and some legitimately nice work clothes...like, some pencil skirts that are actually fitted instead of the dumpy too-big ones that I have and maybe one or two of those leotard dress shirts from Victoria's Secret.
Reservations at Grand Canyon for a trip on the mules down to Phantom Ranch- you need to be under a certain weight (fully dressed) to go, and they have a big ofd scale there, too. Of course, once I reach goal, I will probably have the energy to hike down & back up, and won't need to ride the mules!

Exactly. I don't care if they are in fashion,I just want to see them slide on and button without straining. It would make my day/week/month/year!!! LOL
I have a lot of my "skinny clothes" hanging in the back of the closet. Size 6 mostly. Dresses, jeans... I guess the only thing I would have to buy more of are shirts!
I just can't wait until I reach goal and can fit well into clothing in normal stores. In fact if I lose weight I will gain an entire beautiful wardrobe because right now I have gorgeous clothing all one size too small. My issue now is that I am definitely too small for plus sizes and while I technically fit into the larger sizes in regular stores, the clothing styles are cut to be flattering on a thinner persons body. So while the dress might zip up comfortably it just doesn't seem to look exactly right. Also because of my body shape its hard to find clothing. Even though I am bigger, my waist is small in proportion to my shoulders and bust. So I don't feel comfortable wearing tighter shirts because it emphasizes my stomach and I don't feel comfortable wearing looser shirts because they hang off my bust and shoulders and make me look 10 lbs heavier. I've sometimes tried to get plus size items altered but it's still a pain in the butt to deal with.
Some seriously HOT cloths... So a little shopping spree at Sak's and Neiman Marcus, with a little detour through Gucci and Ferragamo... Oh and I might have to pop into Cartier because there is a watch that I have my eye on...
