Goodbye Big Girl Clothes!

Yay!!

Yeah Paula!

I'm going to have two baskets in my bedroom. Things that don't fit, but might fit my mom (who was close to my starting weight) and then after she has tried them on and rejected anything they will go to a charity party I'm going to host over the holidays where "fashionable" women clean out their closets and bring them to go to women who are trying to find employment and need a starting wardrobe. I'm kinda excited about it :).

I cannot wait to get to that point!

That's wonderful! I know...way-back-when, I remember getting rid of the clothes was like getting rid of 'more layers' of myself. Just the same as with the quick weight loss, it can be a little scary! But mostly happy, excited feelings for you I hope :) Congrats

Paula, Paula, Paula :)

40 lbs down, how terrific is that - hope you are feeling proud/happy :)

great feeling getting rid of clothes that are now too big ;)

It is scary to give away bigger sized clothes that no longer fit you

You/we are getting rid of our security blanket - but....security blankets are for kids.

you no longer a kid/ but baby look at you now ;)

keep up the great work

congrats
