I would say I sorta do - but not much.  I wear fited shirts, and fitted clothes.  and *gasp* I tuck my shirt in! I wear a belt, and even put my cell phone on my hip. 

I dont mind wearing a sweater over a nice long sleeve shirt.  I wear the same types of clothes, just differently to fit the new me.  But I dont wear elastic pants.

Your clothes will change as your new body emerges.  And I swore I would NEVER wear those skinny jeans - let me just tell you I am EATING my words! They are the best looking pair of jeans on me.

Dont stay inside...get out.  Instead of being inside get a walk in - it will do wonders for you.  We have all been at the "embarrassed by my size" point and KNOW exactly how you feel.

If you need to talk please send any of us a message.  Just post post post and get involved.  We are all here to help.

Maybe after PS and Jupiter and Mars get in line with Pluto and Saturn, then I will be able to wear a shirt tucked in....

Ive always liked jeans that touched me all the way to the ankle, they just dont make them in my current size.....if the did i would need to be a weightlifter to lug around that much fabric....lol

No you won't dress the same. And everything will look better, and fit better, on you. In fact even naked will look better, and fit better, on you.

I definately dress MUCH better now.  I also wear make-up and fix my hair everyday which I NEVER did before.  My 22 year old daughter actually approves of how I dress now.

You never know you might become a clothing HO.. I am one. I buy all the time. I refuse to buy anything stretchy. It is just too many bad memories to do that to myself. Because when we lose the weight, we don't have to do that anymore in order to buy a piece of clothing. You will were clothes you never imagined you would wear..

Smile, it increases your face value.

(right hand in air) I hereby swear or affirm to tell the truth in the matter before the "court"....

Made jokes with my ex and other family that I had not bought or worn colored socks in 20+ years since I could wear white ones with all my footwear.  I had not bought new pair of dress shoes in probably the same amount of time.  Well about a year ago broke down and bought new suit, dress shoes and OMG blue socks!  The suit has since been taken up and surprise, surprise I have even bought some "business casual" wear in the form of Docker pants and long sleeve shirts. 

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!
