Yesterday was bittersweet... I tried on their smallest sized pants and they were far too big... I've been a customer for so long that I don't even know where to start looking for new stuff. Any suggestions?!

From a 20 to a 10 in 5 months... I'm in shock!

Congrats!  I can't wait for this to be me!  I made a list of things I can't wait to be able to do once I don't have this fat in the way.  On that note, I have no clue yet!

Congratulations on your loss!

Several people on here have recommended going to Goodwill or other secondhand stores if you're still going to be losing sizes.

Wow, that is such a major NSV! I'm still in the X's so sorting through racks of clothes at Goodwill is torture for me. I bought a few things at Marshall's and Walmart but if you sew & have the time, it's worth it on some items such as elastic waist shorts or skirts. Easy fix. Just took in 3 pairs of shorts that I had bought new last summer. T-shirts are a little big, but fine for around the house. Luckily, I'm not working right now so a work wardrobe isn't a concern.

The clearance racks at Kohls are worth the time to search.   Walmart sundresses and light sweaters got me through last summer when I was dropping weight fast.

Awesome NSV! You have rocked those sizes in 5 months. I'm not a goodwill or salvation army kind of shopper. I love Old Navy, Target, JC Penny, Ann Taylor Loft, H & M & the Limited.

I like Lucky Brand, Gap, Banana Republic, Aeropostale, Ross (it's like a Marshall's/TJ Maxx). Walmart has great cheap running shorts/sports bras.  Have fun shopping!!  :)
