 This got long winded…sorry. 

I skipped the gym last night and decided to bag up some more stuff that I’ve shrunk out of. I cleaned out the closet. Out of 65 hangers, I emptied 48 of them. I have exactly 14 shirts left…five are work shirts (i.e. polo’s with the work logo on them, and they’re too big). Three pair of slacks and one pair of jeans. When I cleaned out the dresser, out of 10 drawers, three of them have stuff in them. I managed to scrounge up a couple of t-shirts to sleep in (which I suspect won’t last long, they’re already loose), some lounge lizard pants (yep, loose), a few t-shirts for the gym and three pair of gym pants.

 Three large, black Hefty lawn & leaf bags later…those will be going to Salvation Army this weekend.

Aside from underwear and socks…there isn’t much left. I just bought most of the shirts and pants I  have in the closet still two weeks ago…and three out of four pair of the pants are now getting too loose. I’ve hitched onto the 2nd set of hooks on my bras. I did get into an XL shirt last night. I found it in the bottom of one drawer. So I took a step of faith and ordered two sweatshirts for work in XL. The last one I ordered was a 3XL (which I ordered it last fall, I couldn’t get into it. Six months after surgery, it freaking swims on me). My being able to wear an XL anything hasn’t registered in my brain at all. Guess it’s that mental image thing. I’ve been wearing fat clothes for so long…it’s a little difficult wrapping my brain around it.

 It’s apparent I’m losing inches everywhere, still…I’m stressing over the fact my scale again hasn’t moved in two weeks. What the heck is wrong with me?? OMG. I should really excited about all the other stuff (except for the part where my wallet is depleted LOL).

 That all sounds so exciting.  congrats on the big NSV's you have been having.  
I ordered 2 polo's for work about a month ago.  I ordered an xl and a large.  i tried on the large when i got it and it was tight.  I tried it on the other day and it fit me perfectly....sooooo i have a Large shirt i am wearing..thats down from 2XL.  Can''t wait to get further down in size.  
Anyways, keep me updated..

I love these moments!  Your body will change shape and size, even when you don't lose weight.  It's
all part of the fun.

Now check out your local Goodwill or Salvation Army;  it can get expensive replacing all those clothes!!

Have fun!
