Seriously, this is a problem
A good problem, but a problem none the less.
I have no clothes that fit me.
Actually, I take that back, I have some tops that fit ok, and ONE pair of capris. Everything else is a varying degree of too big. The issue is that I am on the cusp of two sizes, and it is really hard to buy more clothes, esp when I was planning on a big shop when I get to goal, or closer to goal and level off more. Most of the stuff I can wear, I just feel frumpy in it... so Frumpy I will be for the next couple of months, I guess. beh.

sale season
There's no reason to walk around with droopy drawers when this is summer sale season! You could pick up a few items for next to nothing right now. I went shopping for workout clothes yesterday and got some incredible deals. Come on! Go shopping! You know you want to. I give you permission.

Happy Monday!

Right there with ya!
I have no clothes either. Actually, I have 2 pairs of pants, 1 pair of jeans, and 1 pair of capris that fit. Oh, and 1 skirt. That's it for bottoms. Tops are another story. I still need to go thru them, but I bet there are 10 or less that really fit. It's crazy and wonderful, but frustrating isn't it? LOL!
Keep on truckin' girl! I am trying to catch up with ya! :)

Clothes Hunting
You know, you don't have to buy brand new off the rack stuff...its perfect time for garage sales and thrift stores! If you need a shopping buddy....I'm here for ya! (Oh and my last garage sale this weekend!)

Droopy Drawers!
I am in the same boat as you! All of my shorts and light summer capris are about 2 sizes too big for me. I don't want to buy anything new until I must, so I am relying on the fact that I can hold them up with my hands in my pockets!
Maybe you can hit up Old Navy and check out the sales racks there. I can usually find something cheap and cute there. At least your clothes are falling off and not getting snug! ;o)
Started Core today. I had spoon sized shredded wheat with skim milk and coffee for breakfast. I just had whole wheat pasta with mushrooms, corn and FF honey dijon dressing for lunch. I feel weird not counting points. Like I am gonna screw it up!! Question- I can use the FF Pam to cook veggies in a frying pan right? Ahhh, well! Hope I learn to love this way of eating!! Have a great week!

was just saying the same thing to my friend!
I can't even fit into my 4's anymore! I know how you feel, girl, walking around hitching up my damn pants.

what size are you now?
I spent this morning trying on everything suit-like I own and finally pinning one skirt so that it fit high enough to look okay. You're probably too small for most of my stuff, but if you want to give it a try I can mail some nice things that are only a little too big for me...and do hit the sale and clearance racks for clothes for now!
I have two pair of jeans that sort of fit and two pair of non-gym shorts. And only 3 pair of slacks that fit for work! I do laundry a lot. I'll buy more clothes when I hit goal and am comfortable maintaining, but it will probably take me a while because I cringe at paying full price for anything!

friends exchange?
have you ever gone to a friends clothing exchange? Friends, co-workers....invite them to bag up stuff they no longer wear and all meet at someone's home. then all the stuff goes in piles on the floor, according to size, owner or whatever, and as it suits you...rules or no rules... you just get to help yourselves to one anothers cast offs. serve some light finger foods, and bubbly water for a partylike effect. voila! new clothes,social obligation and good karma all served in one setting.
