I've not bought a single thing.. I'd saved all my various sized clothes throughout the years and so far, I've managed to avoid having to buy a thing.. even bras.. I found a box of 30+ different bras in various sizes! Good Grief, I am an insane person.
And like mdallas above, I must've been wearing my clothes REALLY tight (or they were really stretchy) because it's only been the last couple weeks I had to get out of most of the clothes I've been wearing all along and I've lost 67 lbs so far!.
I don't plan on buying until I'm absolutely forced to do so.. I own both a regular sewing machine as well as an overlock/serger so my plan is to alter as much as I can for now, to save money. As I said in the 'stimulus check' thread.. I'm a single parent with two kids in college.. and my wedding to plan for, so I'm in no rush to pay money for clothing that won't fit a few weeks later. Luckily for me, I've favored more classic styles over the uber-trendy so I'm doing okay with the older clothes.. nothing I've kept looks too silly (at least to me, LOL)
