Why am I still holding on to those clothes?

This weekend I finally bagged up my 26's and 28's and gave them to a friend. The question is, why do I still have my 22's and 24's when I'm a 20 now? I will still wear the 22's though they are baggy, but certainly have no need for the 24's. I just can't seem to let those bigger clothes go. I'm not sure if it's because in the back of my mind I feel like one day I'll need them again. Sometimes I miss being a 28.. it was safer for me. The funny thing is, as I was bagging them up I realized how moo moo they were. They just don't make attractive big people clothes. I dressed like I was 80 years old, because that's all there was unless I went to Lane Bryant and spent 50 bucks on a new shirt. No thanks. I wish I could start a larger sized clothing line, only it would be cool stuff and it wouldn't cost a dang fortune.

You know what else is weird? My body is shrinking different than it was before. THe last time I was this weight I was a 22. Now my rear is getting smaller and I'm a 20. That is so odd to me.

Don't worry, Crystal. I am going to get around to cleaning out my closet, and those things are coming your way. I've already got some 18s boxed up. We need to meet for lunch so I can bring them to you. Thursday? Let me know!

Girl, thanks for all those clothes you gave me at lunch today! I can't wait to go through all of them and anticipate when I can wear them. The 20's are semi baggy on me so I could probably wear a few 18's. Depending on the cut and style. Wahoo.
