Good for you!  I also bought clothes before I made my goal.  It was hard to put them in the donation bag after only having worn them once or twice but I don't regret buying them.  We need to pamper ourselves every once in a while.

Good for you, Tammy.
    I know what you mean about clothes that are too big, My relatives and friends are telling me to stop wearing my "big clothes." I started in a 5x. I tried on some 3X's from my closet and they were too big. Going to a resale shop to look for some new clothes tomorrow. Great job on losing weight. I need to bump up my exercise. I'm naturally lazy. No I'm not. I got lazy as the weight piled on. I just need to get back to a routine.    Mag

It's great to shop for clothes. I had very gracious friends who gave me clothes that didn't fit them to help me though and of course thrift shops and garage sales are your friend, you don't feel bad about putting the clothes in the donation bin after only wearing them twice if they cost you 5 bucks.

Keep up the great work.
