  • I got a new wardrobe for free!

    Well, kinda. Last night when I got home from work I decided to look through the boxes of clothes that were too small for me when I put them away almost 2 years ago. It was so fun! 4 pair of pants, 6 shirts, blazers, jeans, even shoes that wouldn't fit now do. The best part was I had forgotten most of them so they are "new" to me and still in style! I also took out several things that should fit in another 5lbs or so to give me incentive.

    Have you been shopping in your closet lately and found some "new" clothes?

      Isn't that the best!?

      I had a ton of clothes from a few years ago, when I was smaller, that I had been saving "if" I lost weight again. I started Atkins just over a year ago, and within a few months of my start, I was "shopping" in my closet! It was awesome to wear stuff that I hadn't been able to wear before. Soon, you'll be having to get rid of that stuff because it's too big!

      The best part is now, with the exception of a couple of hooded sweatshirts and some t-shirts, I don't have a SINGLE thing in my closet that has been there longer than a year! Most of my stuff has been acquired in the past 6 months. The same will be true for you!

                  Maybe I need to borrow someone's closet. I've been fat my whole life, so I found a box of clothes - they would be bigger than what I wear. lolol But, Congratulations on the new clothes. How exciting!!!

                    I have a bunch of old clothes in my closet from my thinner days. I can't wait to try them on again!
