ME~~~ wow!!
These were tight on me
size........26
Clean your closet of the "fat" clothes. Once you've reached your target weight, throw out or give away every piece of clothing that doesn't fit. The idea of having to buy a whole new wardrobe if you gain the weight back will serve as a strong incentive to maintain your new figure!! I have gotten rid of every piece except one. I have my jeans. I can fit at least two of me in them. That is sad. This is my wake up call.! I love pulling these out from time to time........Keeping fat clothes gives you an..."out" . I have done that other times I lost weight....not this time. NO WAY!!!
You might be surprised to know I actually burned the first set of clothes I got rid of. I was so embarrassed to take them to goodwill. This actually was ...healing. Like checking off a chapter in my life. They went up in a cloud of smoke...never to be seen again. Literally, I can't pull them out of the closet. I must admit I thought, what if I need those?.....So what if you do Ellen????....I must not go there! So, I must stick to this!!! I really liked it when I came to a new season, like Fall....& the pants did the same. I had more fun getting rid of clothes. Almost more than buying new ones!!! :)
