Silverdragon's Journal, 18 August 2011

I understand what you are saying I am shrinking out of my clothes and know that by the time I reach my goal Iwil go through several different sizes of clothing. I do not want to be wasteful either. I have found some wonderful clothes, very nicely priced at places like the Salvation Army, St. Vincent De Paul and other such charities that people donate to. This is not considered wasteful to donate to these programs because they turn around sell these items to raise money for their charities at extremely discounted prices over what you would pay at the store for the same name brands. The only requirement is time and patience. Generally you have a section for jeans, they are not organized by size, or style, just simply jeans, so take a friend and an afternoon and make a day of it. Purusing the racks and trying on items from brand name companies that I know I have NEVER been able to wear in the past. Good Luck and keep up the great job! 

i have a psychological barier and every time i get to it i put all the weight back on this time with help i will not ...at the moment im still in my largest clothes nut they are feeling looser ..i have 4 drawers of clothes each draw ia different size and i know i will have the same problem but for me more linked with the fact ....errrrr what if i throw the clothes away .( give to cahrity ) ...then later on put the weight back on ...it is so hard  

I hear you and feel you completely. You will be okay. When you feel comfortable, why dont you donate 1/2 of your old clothes or dell em in a garage sale...and buy new clothes with the loot? Clothes ALWAYS move at garage sales. I do a "fill a box for 5 bucks " scheme and it works like a charm.
