There was a post on this forum awhile ago about this and DUH! it finally hit me.

It's not that I'm afraid I will gain the weight back.

After years of wearing things that were busting at the seams and too tight, it feels great to slip into something too big and to have to have a belt to keep your pants from falling down.

So now I have 14s and 12s in my closet. I belt the 14s and it makes me feel happy.

Silly huh?

Yes, re-appropriate. Tell her if she wants them back. she has to take them off you ...

I'm so sorry. i just got off a thread where they were talking about "Wangs" and "Hoo Haas." It's been a very long day.

HAHAHA that was awesome, wasn't it?? I was crackin' up!

Anyway...I had to get rid of my bigger clothes, because, although like you, I liked the loose feeling of shrinking out of them, but when I looked in the mirror and saw the old clothes, I saw the old body. My eyes and brain were playing tricks on each other, and to see the change, I had to see different clothing. It just wasn't working for me mentally. We all have our weird ways of looking at these things.

Ditch them!!... You have a new body... Why are you hiding in baggy cargo pants. It's your security blanket that you no longer need! Toss them and treat your self to a new sexy pair of comfy pants! Yes you can get fashionable and comfortable in one!! (was that catty enough?)

Oh yes! It's funny because you are 100% right! I get compliments in slimming pants, but who compliments a girl in baggy cargo pants? I just got a picture in my head of Linus sucking his thumb and holding his blanket, No thanks LOL!

Linus..,lol. I promised myself as soon as I get too small for something it is getting donated since I NEVER want to go back up. The only thing i'm keeping is one of my biggest pair or Jeans because I hope one day that I can be like the people on commercials where you can stand in one pant leg!

MEE TOO MEE TOO!!!! I WANNA STAND IN ONE PANT LEG!!! LOL

That's gotta be one of the best feelings.... I'll be waiting for your picture =)

I just wanna forget I was ever fat.

I have many sizes in my closet, it is soo crammed. I am going to keep a bin in there, and if I put something on and it is too big, it is going right in the bin!

I just did that last weekend and it's already full!

I just found out today that the 12s are getting loose as I was wearing the 14s. I know this is not going to keep happening, but I'm at one of those stages were I lose close to a pound a day. This is after almost a month of stall.

Yes, I've gotten the lecture that I need to have a 3500 calorie deficit to do that and that's all but impossible YADA YADA, but seriously, some days I almost do. Eating 750 calories and maybe burning 3,000+ with the normal fuel you body burns every day plus the exercise.

We are all running at a deficit. That's the point.
