Confess - just how old/out of style are those skinny clothes?

I just recentluy saw a Meme that said something like " I just donated a bunch of my old clothes to Goodwill but, am concerned that there is someone walking around looking like a hooker from the 80's"

Congratulations in maintenance! Be sure and keep a few for photo ops. To show how far you have come. I just love those photos where you get your entire body in one leg!

KATHY--me too!! One of the best support group meetings I ever went to was a "come as you WERE party". Everyone wore something that was their pre op size. VERY eye opening!!

What a GREAT theme for a WLS support group meeting. I'd love to go to one like that.

I need to find the pictures. It was GREAT! I was fortunate, in that I had kept the actual clothes I had worn, on surgery day. Other peeps went to Goodwill, etc and bought the size they had BEEN. We had a "fashion show". Most of us had to hold our clothes up/on, to keep from being nekkid!

I sorted my closet into boxes so I could try them again while I got smaller. Most of the time they are too big by the time I try the next box... I just got down to the last box, size 12-14 box, the smallest I have been as an adult and some of the 14's are loose.

As for style. The floral patterns and pastel colors I favored when I was younger just don't work for me now. For now I am limited my purchases to basics in white, black and shades of grey. I did get some patterned capri leggings and some longish tees (NOT TUNICS!!!) for the warmer weather.

My skinny clothes weren't really skinny and were all from 2014. I very quickly blew past them and have had to buy new ones! I do wish I would have saved at least one pair of jeans from high school to try though.
