Fall: What are you adding to your closet

  • What are you adding to your closet for fall or winter? Time to spice this board up with something to look forward to. You don’t have to hit a goal or be at a specific weight - just what neat item you hope to add to your arsenal to feel good on your journey for these colder months.
  • I just bought a new pair of heels and a pair of work shoes. I need clothes, but will wait until more weight comes off.
  • I bought some older purses to rehab and two are crossbodies which with a flatter stomach in the making will hopefully lay nice and look good. I’m also eyeing a pair of shoes for everyday use. And I continue to pick up something here or there at goodwill as I see it or if it fits. I’m thinking I’m going to set some monies aside for when I get closer to goal and have fun. And I sew so I have a few patterns I’d like to try with a lighter body. Does anyone else sew clothes for themselves?
  • Sweaters! Big, comfy sweaters. I just bought a sweater with a candy corn pattern.
  • Goodwill and other second hand stores are a great idea while you're losing. You don't want to spend a lot of money while you're still losing, as the clothes will quickly become too big, but it's nice to have something that fits well in the interim.

    I still have clothes in some smaller sizes that I kept, hoping to fit into them again, so I really don't need to buy anything. They will seem like new clothes when I can wear them again.
