What Would You Wear If You Lose Weight?

I was thinking of the stuff i never wear because of my weight... I would love to wear a shorts next summer in public. I also would love to get sexy negligee and look great. I've only lost 28lbs, but maybe this time next year i could surprise my husband! ;) oh and i would love to wear heels! I don't feel comfortable wear heels caz of how heavy i am. :( i hope you write stuff for me to read, keeps me motivated! Love the support group here! Xxoo

I have this sexy little black dress in my closet that I only wore once. A LONG TIME AGO! I refused to get rid of it, and that was always the dress I said I will wear again! Once I fit into that dress and look good in it... I will be one happy as hell chick! When I bought it I was still self conscious in it, looked pretty good but not good enough to feel confident, so I want to look even better in it then I did the last time I wore it. :)

I have lost a lot of weight a long time ago long before I got my band. I slowly eventually out on all that weight and more! I'm just looking forward to being able to fit back into my old clothes and old favourites which I have stored away. I kept all the good clothes. It's nice to know I won't need to go shopping as I loose weight I can just search thru my old clothes. And the best part is no one knows they r old!!! :D

But I do have I've ultimate goal, at my lightest I bought a formal dress. Iv only worn it twice. One day, ill get back into that dress! I'm so excited :)

I used to keep clothes I knew I was to big for I would take them out and look at them and tell myself "someday I will wear you again" .

I do the same thing

I wear tank tops now! I was always too embarrassed to do that when I was heavier. Yeah, I may have little bat wings but I don't care. In the summer I plan to wear shorts, strapless sundresses, and a swimsuit. No more hiding or sweating like a pig.

I want to tuck a shirt in ... I also want to wear a button up - haven't done that since teens:)

I also want to wear some hot fitted jeans!

I want to look sexy in a business suit ...... Oh wow I could go on for hours !

Well I was banded 2 years ago and have gone from a size 22 to an 8. I still haven't started wearing what i want because I'm self conscious. Maybe this summer I will rock some shorts. :)

This is a great post... but I want to tell everyone just starting: don't wait to dress nice! It's possible even at a plus size! I know it's hard to find stuff, but it's gotten much better over the years...even Tommy Hilfinger has a plus sized line! Feel good about yourself now and the journey will be even better! It's hard to break the habits of hiding behind black, baggy and stretchy... plus they don't work anyhow! Just because you're big doesn't mean you can be bright and fun!!!

On that note, as I've gone from a 24 Tao 12-14 I just recycle sizes, taking the too big stuff to the thrift store and leaving with a new batch of smaller things! But one of the best things is shoes .... getting in shape has made.it easier to wear higher heels, and I'm more coordinated in them! A whole new world opens up when you can wear 3" heels!!!

Skinny people have clothing dilemmas too ya know but I know one things for sure...WHEN I DROP ABOUT 50 POUNDS I'll BE WEARING ONLY LIPGLOSS A LOT MORE OFTEN, yep :-*
