Not Really a Complaint...

It's nice when you start to lose weight and your clothes start to feel better again. When your skinny jeans (as in smaller size, NOT style) are actually wearable. When you don't feel like unbuttoning the top button when you sit at your desk. When clothes are comfortable again.

But then, you eventually get to the point where your pants are too big. Uncomfortably big. Like right now. All my work pants look ridiculous. They are sagging in the butt, cuffs are dragging on the ground, I am constantly hiking them up. (Belts just bunch them up and look even worse... I'm wearing long shirts in the hopes of keeping them up a bit and hiding the gaping at the waist.)

I desperately need some new work pants... one each in black, grey and brown. Downside to losing weight = buying new wardrobe essentials.

I guess it's a price I'm willing to pay.

But then you are like, "I'm not done losing, I don't want to buy in between sizes."

Good for you for losing so much weight - wow!

But it is frustrating, to work so hard on something and then have nothing to wear that makes you feel fabulous.

However... There is nothing quite as fun as buying clothes in a size that makes you happy to show off your new figure!

Oh man I totally hear you. While of course the goal is smaller clothes, actually having to buy new clothes all the time because nothing fits is awful (and expensive!) I suggest trying to get some cute work dresses because those tend to last over a couple sizes, but with work pants you just have to keep buying a pair or two when you need them.
