thats funny, I too do the same thing.  I have been losing weight recently so I dont want to spend money on clothes that i'm not going to fit into soon.  I have a few "goal" pieces that I am working to fit into.  I have lost about 25 lbs since the beginning of february, almost 30 total.  I have about another 25-35 left to lose, we'll see when I get closer how I feel then.  But I did the whole "I want this when I lose X amount of weight" even before I was actively trying to lose weight.  Now that I have a definite path and goal set, I don't think it makes sense to buy anything now.  When I have reached my goal I want a pair of those pants, they are fabulous!

Congratulations on the weight loss.  It is certainly not easy to lose weight.  You must post pictures of yourself in your "skinny" clothes.  Thanks for responding, Cela.

I'm sure you look great Stacy and congratulations on fitting into them!

It is always the best feeling when you manage to get on that 'too tight' pair of pants, even if you do squish yourself in it is still progress :)

I too have trouble with the weight issue and not wanting to buy clothes. I have 2 wardrobes full of original vintage and I can't fit into them. It's so depressing! And I don't need to lose too much, just 7kgs would do it. I keep setting goals for myself, like I'll lose it before I go to Bali (been and gone), I'll lose it before I go to the States (supposed to be leaving in 2 weeks). It ain't happening. So I disguise my size with bigger looser tops then feel like I'm very un-PUG. Eugh!!!!

i am in the SAAAAAAME boat, i've been out of a job for a while now (i was a server and on the move all the time) and now i've gained weight, and theres a box full of beautiful clothes, that i've spent hard earned money on, sitting on floor. i keep saying to myself "i'm gonna lose weight" "i'm gonna work out", and then i become lazy and nothing happens. i lack motivation and therefore, i wear baggy, loose (ill) fitting clothes and feel very out of touch with my once put together style :(

Motivation is everything but where do you find it or what creates it? I've struggled with this weight for five years and it goes down a little then back up, then down a little. But not down enough that I can fit into the clothes I want to.

It's so important for you ladies to know that you are all gorgeous no matter what shape or size...Your beauty isn't determined by a number on a clothinglabel.

Having a goal is fantastic, if you wanna lose weight more power to you but don't forget and ignore your current self as she needs love too. Don't think that just because you are a certain size that you cannot wear something...Everyday is special...Not just the vision of your future self...Don't forget your current self...
