Thought on buying clothes

[busybeebug 415]

Currently I am on the boarder line of a large and extra large for a top. My boobs are holding me back. Lol is it Jinxing myself to go with the smaller size in a jacket? It's a great deal like 1/4 of the original price. I guess I'm insecure on this working. I don't know why I get so much anxiety over getting excited over things or looking forward to better things. (hence keeping up with therapy). I'm trying to be frugal too and not buy alot during the dropping weight or I'll go broke. It's a petty problem but I wanted to see your opinions.

I have no opinion on what you should do because it's not for me to spend your money. If, however, I see a jacket that I like and I intend to keep losing and said jacket is marked down 75% and I think it will be in season when it's a good fit, I'd buy it in a flash. I'd probably buy it even if I had no idea whether it might be a good, in-season. If I'm working my plan, I don't feel insecure about my progress. If I'm watching my spending, I'll buy one jacket, not five.

First and foremost, though, getting excited over things is a sign that we're alive. Excitement and enthusiasm are happy-making. To stifle it is to give up. Feel the life-affirming feeling even if anxiety is part of the mix.

I just go back and forth. I know I'll keep loosing logically. I know I need a winter jacket because I just donated my old ones because they were too big. I hate over thinking simple or small things. This whole process is so overwhelming even though I know I will end up where I should be.

Personally I'd buy it.. I'm not running out wasting money but I need a coat.. It's a great deal.. Love it.. I deserve nice things.. I can sell it next year for what I paid for it.. Win win or donate if I chose

I'd get it. Have fun. Dropping sizes and getting new clothes is one of my favorite parts of this journey!!

Nothing new to add. Just echoing,buy it; you're worth it.

@@busybeebug, yipes, get out there and buy the coat. You can't hide in the house all winter. At the very least, you'll be able to get to your therapy appointments! Git! Here's a kick in the pants!

(You know, I hope, that I don't really think you'll hibernate.)

Thanks. I needed that. And everyone's posts too. Change is hard. And no hibernation for me. I have an awesome hot tub outback that I don't intend to neglect and a ski pass to give some winter exercise!

A jacket is a necessity and you can get away with it being a little larger too. I didn't buy any cloths except for some scrubs for work until I was halfway to my goal weight. I bought them a little small and I am sure I will fit in them fine in a month or so.

I will do my personal shopping either on or after Boxing Day. It's goodwill until then. But then.. I don't work in an office so I don't know if I would have gotten away with shopping at goodwill if I were expected to dress up for work.
