magtart reacted to gamergirl in I'm Having A Minor Melt-Down
The only things I have left to wear daily are 2 pairs of lee riders from Walmart which I love because I can wear 12's (even though I am a 14) and several $7.94 t-shirts, also from walmart, in a variety of colors. So basically my entire outfit cost less than $30. And it looks better on me than outfits that cost a lot more than that when I weighed more.

I have gone from a size 18 to a 6/8 since March and on the way have shed 24 sacks of clothes, all to local charity shops. Yes, I was also a shopaholic as well as a food addict. Doing everything to excess seems to be a thread running through my life.....
The majority of the clothes had been accumulated over the years to cover all eventualities, some are the same thing in a couple of sizes to allow for "fat days" or maybe that should have been "fatter days"! The rest were bought and barely worn as I swept through the different sizes, sometimes in the course of only a month.
I have kept three items from when I was at my biggest. When I feel like I am not making progress and start looking at myself with an unnecessarily self-critical eye, I dig out the jacket, dress and trousers. All of them were clothes that made me feel good and they still do cos I laugh when I wrap the jacket round me or put two legs into one leg of my trousers.
So in the euphoria of clearing, keep even just one thing so that when you begin to forget how you looked (and you will!!!) and start to fret about how well you are doing, you can dig it out and see the real difference you have made and how far you have come :-)

I will feel no sense of loss whatsoever, when I can get rid of my fat clothes. Everything still fits, except my knickers are too big. No-one can see them, and I'm too cheap to by new ones until they reach my diaphragm!

magtart got a reaction from _imgood_ in What A Week!
Started off Monday morning at 4:30AM discovering Water pouring down from the ceilings of both floors in our house. It turns out the supply line to the water heater burst. They put water heaters in the attic around these parts.
We have had flooring, carpeting, and huge parts of the ceilings torn out with huge fans and dehumidifiers running 24 hours a day until today.
Today I found out I am approved for surgery and on Monday my coordinator is going to call me to schedule my surgery. Yay! But in the meantime, the reconstruction company has to come in a pack up our living room, dining room, parts of the kitchen, the family room, the master bedroom and bathroom. We will either have to move to a hotel or just stay in the guest room with limited access to a kitchen and using my son's bathroom.
This is going to be one helluva ride this next month or so.

If you have $5000 you have enough to get the sleeve in Mexico.

I'm just happy that when I lose weight I will be able to run from the zombies when the zombie apocalypse comes.
