What about those silly little clippie things? (Clearly I have no clue what they might be called...) They're 4 inches long or so and have little suspender clips at each end. You could clip one to the back of your top to pull it in from the back. Probably will look kinda dumb from the back, but it'll probably buy you quite a bit of time before you actually have to suck it up and buy new ones. They would probably be found at a fabric store.

Congrats on your hard work!

Yes.. Like the clips used to keep mittens with kids coats. Good idea!

My office has told me that for a while now. I told them that when I get to a 2x I'll go buy some. I have almost there down 80 pounds

How about the scrubs at Walmart? Personally from a psychological stand point you need to by a few clothes as your weight goes down. It's part of retraining your brain to recognize your shrinking body.
