This may seem silly, but I am worried about this. How often did you buy clothing as you were losing? I'm not talking a new wardrobe but just a few things here and there. I'm a nurse so my main wardrobe is taken care of with scrubs, but I do like to get together with friends and wear nice clothing. I'm just afraid I will be wasting money by buying clothing throughout the weight loss, but I know I'm going to have to get a few pieces. How did it work for you while you were losing?

Goodwill.

Nurse Bonnie that is not silly.... that's a great question. I honestly bought only a few sets of clothing for social events while on my way down the scale. Even under garments I bought the cheapest undies and bras I could. The reason being I made the mistake of buying expensive bras used them once and there they sit. Way to big now.... So I would suggest when you need only buy a few outfits. Buy on the cheaper end... no kidding I went from a size 26-28 to a size 16 in a year. And my sizes are still changing. If you have a Khols near by there are great deals in the clearance rack. I have got pants and blouses for less than $5.00 no kidding. Best Wishes on your journey!And Happy Shopping!

Hit send to soon.... Goodwill is where I am going ( i buy my clothes there even while not loseing) this way I can get what I need and not pay out the rear

Yes! Khols!!!!! Girls I got shirts for 1.90 for my husband!! They are having huge sales and mark downs right now

Great ideas! I was shopping yesterday, and I kept finding cute stuff, which NEVER happens. But I didn't really buy anything because I thought, in two months this won't fit me anymore. It was so weird!

I shop resale...that way I can recycle it. Either Goodwill or one of several resale shops around my house. I also have a friend that as she loses, she gives me clothing. I also reach out on the Freecycle sites here...There are so many avenues to take so you don't spend a lot of money but you can get nice clothing.

Clearance!!!! I just got two shirts at Urban Outfitters for $4.99 each, in size large!!!

There is a clothing exchange thread on this forum. Maybe you could find things there.

EBay, http://www.thredup.com, Onestopplus sales for undies & pants, JMS.com for bras and shirts, some local consignment shops, shopping in the back of my closet (the clothes I used to be able to wear eight years ago and could never throw out), and sales at Kohls and Dress Barn.
