Thread: clothes shopping a joy for a change

How pleased am I just been clothes shopping and instead of my usual struggle to find a bra anywhere that fits me i managed to fit into a 38 C comfortably instead of my usual 44DD, and a pair of size 18 trousers instead of a 22, for the first time shopping wasnt a complete nightmare.

Losing weight is going to be expensive all these new clothes but what a great reason for a shopping binge, and i feel fab

Hi Ozzy

So glad you have had a great time shopping it's fantastic when it no longer is a chore.

Don't get to comfortable in those new sizes though and same some money for when these new clothes are hanging off!

OHH I am jealous, I am not doing so well and can't seem to egt out of my 22s and into the 20s. I am just under 15stone now but my bottom had not realised it!

I can't wait to be able to buy lovely bras off the peg in any shop! Apparently if you are overweight you like frumpy bras lol. Or have to pay a zillion quid for one!

Well done, cant wait to post the same post in a few months!

what a nice way to spend time SHOPPING and only someone who has lost weight can understand how great you feel.
To go and but nice cloths for a change and a bra that looks feels and fits sexy
Good luck to you babe enjoy.

Thanks all, i did feel like a weirdo though with a huge grin on my face when i was paying, but yes only someone losing weight can understand, im looking forward to many more shopping trips like this one now (although my Hubby is a bit worried about his Credit Card )

Oh, I so know what you mean! This losing weight business can cost you a flaming fortune in new clothes - especially as you can drop dress sizes so quickly on a VLCD. Fun though innit?

As I just posted on my diary thread, I've just discovered the previously undiscovered joys of charity shops - I'd never realised before what bargains can be had in them! A real bonus for those of us who are having to replace our entire wardrobes on a regular (ish) basis and don't have loadsamoney to spend on new clothes

Well done Ozzy
Feels so fab doesnt it I remember last time I lost alot of weight how I liked looking in all the shops at a size 12 thinking that wouldnt fit then..............whey hey it did and I started off at a size 18-20.
Looking forward to getting that feeling again soon! Just imagion how fantastic it is going to be for all of us at christmas...........all that lush party gear

glad you enjoyed shopping for clothes and stuff, i havnt been yet t buy any new clothes but i really need to, everything flops around on me lol

Posted on the general thread about this, but I'm so thrilled here it is again!! I bought some linen trousers in the sale at Tesco today, and they fit beautifully. THEY ARE A SIZE 12!!!!!!!! I still can't belive it - other people are a 12 - not ME. Chatterbox is saying that they're making things bigger nowadays.............
