  • Yahoo........rounding second

    Standing on second base, halfway home, eyeing third as I've lost now 1/2 of my weight goal this morning. Another ten pounds or so and it off to buy some midway cheap suits to replace my present somewhat baggy suits.................ck

    woooohooooo! congrats on your loss and success!

    for the suits: when i was losing the second hand clothing stores were my best friend! Rather than spend money on new stuff I bought second hand...everything from jeans to designer stuff..you'd be amazed at what you can find! and then once that's too big, you can recycle again for the next person...

      I agree, I havent bought new clothes (apart from undies) for a few years now, sort of got addicted to charity shops!

            I'm in sales and getting a little nervous about work clothes. Take a look at Marshall's and Ross. They have some nice suits for a lot less. My best spot is Ann Taylor Loft. A lot of times I'll find 60 dollar pants for 10-15 bucks on the clearance rack. I don't normally wear suit jackets since I ride my motorcycle to work but the ones I have are easy to match and don't need replaced as often. A good black, brown and beige jacket can be combined with lots of different bottoms. I shopped those three spots heavily when I first went back to sales. I hate spending a ton of money knowing I'll have to replace do it again in three months. It's on thing that makes slow losses a little easier to take. If I lost faster I'd have to work nakid!

                Awesome job! You must be on top of the world. I, too, am a second hand shopper. Our Goodwill store and Salvation Army store has the nicest, high quality clothes for just a couple of dollars. I get so many complements on my $5 wardrobe and I get a kick out of telling the person where it came from and how much I paid!
