Throw them out and don't look back. I'm 7 weeks out and I cleaned out my closet a few weeks ago . Just held on to a few items that still fit . But got rid of all my winter clothes knowing that I will not be using them again. It felt wonderful. I have an aunt who had surgery 3 months before me so she's been passing me the clothes that are to big for her so luckliy I haven't bought anything yet. I don't want to shop at the fat lady store ever again. So I'm tying to hold out for a while longer. Belive me you will feel somuch better getting rid of those clothes and just remember you willnever need them again. Good Luck. Kathi

I've been giving a lot of stuff to my mom and the goodwill. I was looking at some of my old clothes that now fit and a lot of them are out of style so I thought.....I need to get rid of the big stuff regardless because hopefully I will never see this size again and if I do the stuff will be out of style anyway......I'm not trying to think negatively, but I also have a problem letting go of clothes since I have went up and down so much so that is how I justified it to myself!

I hear ya, Sandy. I've been doing it slowly but surely. I actually just brought some skinny clothes out and they are working out, which is great. But I'm still scared to get rid of the old ones, but I am going to do it. This weekend I'll be going through and trying on stuff, making three piles: Selling, Donating, and Trashing. I'll finally be rid of my excess baggage for good! Amber

I haven't thrown anything away, my big clothes went either back in my closet after I took them in (if possible) or to friends/co-workers/family. I hate throwing away clothes b/c they aren't cheap--especially if you shot the plus size stores. It's like throwing away money. Now shoes I had to throw out--lost the first 5lbs in my feet I think....lol. No one I know where's the size that I wore so I did throw those out.

Hi Sandy, I haven't been able to get rid of any clothes yet. My husband is excited about the chance for me to get rid of a couple worn out things that are torn or wore through - I think they're fine for around the house or in the back yard. Someone told me today that I needed to wear some smaller clothes so that the weight I've lost would be more noticeable, naaaa - I like my baggy clothes. Just a suggestion...there are a lot of pre-ops on the Md board that might appreciate your bigger clothes. Last year I answered a post for clothes that were being given away and I was just tickled to get them. Take care, Sue

I'm still afraid to try on my smaller clothes! I just pulled out some pants this past weekend and had to have a "moment" before I tried them on...they fit! Of course, I wore a "big" pair to work Monday...comfort. I'm sure eventually I'll pass them to someone or donate them to Goodwill/Salv. Army....good cause I suppose. Can we get a tax right off for that!? Christina
