Getting Rid of Clothes



Recommended Posts

Did you get rid of/donate clothes that will be too big next summer? I'm having surgery in December, so my 6X summer clothes will be too big next summer (I hope). I'm gathering all my winter/spring clothes that I have in all my fat sizes, but would prefer not to store next summer's. Am I putting the cart before the horse and being too optimistic what I will weigh next summer? Thanks!

As you loose weight, you should regularly try on your clothes and bag up everything that is too big for donation. I do this monthly. It is liberating and validates the decision you made to become healthier - a step at a time. If you try on one thing, or 20, or more...donate what no longer fits.

I can't wait to be post surgery, dropping weight, and getting rid of my fat clothes. 10 years ago I lost lots if weight and got down to size 6. As I've gained weight I've kept my smaller sizes. This week I've been sorting through and organizing everything. I have tons of size 6-8, a lot of size 10-12, some size 14-16, and a just a little size 18 which is what I'm wearing now. It's been fun going through clothes that I had forgotten about. It's hard to believe I once wore such a small size. I won't be keeping my large sizes. Can't wait to get rid of them!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
