Which is better?

1) Buying new clothes in a smaller size OR

2) Fitting into an old piece of clothing that was ONCE too small

I personally think that although new clothing is always a good thing, I would rather pull something out of my closet that I've had for years but couldn't wear anymore b/c it was too small and have it fit. :biggrin:

WHAT'S YOUR OPINION?

Its been great wearing clothing out of my closet that Ive never been able to wear or wear comfortably in years...I refuse to buy clothing until I drop at least 1 or 2 full sized. Ive been having fun just feeling and looking better in the clothing that I already have in my closet.

I vote old clothes.

There's nothing better than fitting into a favorite piece again

Closet shopping is so much fun! It's free, too. LOL. I still have several really nice suits I can't fit into yet. They were expensive back in the day when I bought them, and I'd love to fit into them again.

I'm not ready to buy new clothes yet. I have a lot more weight I need to lose. I want to wait until I get closer to goal, so buying "in between" clothes seems like a waste to me. That being said, I hate wearing baggy jeans!!! It feels and looks terrible.:redface:

Thrift stores or consignment shops i think are a good alternative for the "transition" clothes....especially jeans. there are more and more places popping up that only deal in name brand clothing.
