Not wanting to waste money on clothes that I could not wear very long, I kept wearing all my baggy clothes.

I even had a box of smaller clothes I dug out and those were now to baggy.

I heard one of my favorite stores was closing (Fashion Bug), so I took a little trip there and it was true, she told me things were being reduced and soon they would close and to choose wisely because all sales are final. I bought a few things and WOW.

Wearing things that fit can really make you feel fabulous. Now when I go to work I know I look good.

Even tho I have not made my goal I do know that I look and feel so much better then I did 6 months ago.

So I encourage all of you that are still wearing those baggy clothes to go get a few new things, even if you can't wear them in a couple months it is so worth a hundred dollars to feel like a million dollars.

Ha. I just heard my Fashion Bug is closing too! I need to go there this payday!! And pick up a few things. Hope they're not slim pickin's lol!!

I was always amazed at how much more people commented about my weightloss when I wore clothes that fit. I think it is hard to do it when we are use to wearing baggy clothes to "hid". I even would go as far as to say clothes felt tight when they actually fit but the clothes I wore were so baggy I wasn't use to wearing them correctly.

Congrats to you and good luck!

Fashion Bug is closing? I'm totally heading there tomorrow!! Thanks!!!

I agree! I just did some shopping today. I was a 24-26 in January and today I could go into Lane Bryant and pretty much fit in to any 16 and some 14 tops. I was amazed! And yes, people do make more positive comments when your clothes fit you better. What a great feeling!

Congrats to you!

Congrats Grandma! Its so true that wearing clothes that fit makes you feel wonderful. I went shopping today and was thrilled, I now fit in a size 14! First time in 30 years. Bought 2 outfits, can't wait to wear them to work next week. We are so worth it! :-)
