I took my capris and summer clothes upstairs to the storage closets, but who knows , by next spring they might be too big!
Great job! you don't have to hang onto those big clothing anymore you will never be that size again. Way to go Sandy

My coach also asked me to reconsider phasing off for the T-day to xmas holiday season. My thought was to give myself a break during the holidays and start up again Jan 1. She made a good point that if I break my momentum, it may be harder to restart. Any of us who read the thread for those restarting can see that there are struggles with that.
So, first I think I'll change my goal and take off at least another 10 -15 pounds and then re-evaluate.
Congrats I think you have made a great decision, phasing off may slow you down when you try to restart.

I always keep it pants/skirts, tanks, dressy work shirts, short sleeved t's, long sleeved dressy, long sleeved ts, and then sweatshirts but it hasn't been color coordinated since we moved in. Yes, I'm weird like that! My hubby's side is driving me nuts but he won't keep it in order, I've tried. 
Have a great Sunday and good luck to those with Monday weigh ins!
I am so proud of you eating all your veggies, and following the program, it seems to be working for you really great now. For Chili, if you go to the first recipes list pages 21 -24 there is about 4 different ones in that section, and instead of the beans, I would add cauliflower in small pieces or rice the cauliflower and just pour the chili over top of it. My favorite is mixing steak and ground meat and add lots of veggies, celery, zucchini(shredded) leeks, small cubes of turnip, and if you let it simmer for a couple of hours all the veggies get the chili flavor.

grinning from ear to ear!
Welcome and that is great 30 lbs way to go!
Haven't been on a lot lately, trying to focus on IP without distractions. Have been on phase 2 for 9 days now without any extras (nothing 0/0/0, no splenda (except the packets), no syrups, no WF. I have to say I survived it but hoping it helps with my wi. Will be going to wi tomorrow, and as my coach hasn't been able to help and if I still haven't lost she will be going to the head guy and see what I am doing wrong... or if it is just my body telling me I am done.
Anyway Have a great Sunday.
