Do you have clothes you long to reclaim or dreams of wearing something…someday?!!

I am down another pound for a total of 14 since I started…

AND I have reclaimed 5 pairs of shorts I haven’t worn for a couple of summers cause I couldn’t fit into them.

Woot Woot!

I had a stack that was waiting “until” I could wear them again…and I just decided to try them on…just to see, and put them away again …when to my great astonishment.  They fit!!!  Wow…I haven’t lost that much…but I think the wogging is paying off…cause I have definitely lost some inches!!!

There’s only one more left pair taunting me…but I will conquer him too!

AND a couple of shirts hanging in the closet that are just a little too snug, but I know THEY will be mine again soon…then before I know it…I will have to go to the store and get all new stuff…’cause nothing I have will fit anymore!!!

 Is there something you want to reclaim?  Something hanging in your closet to inspire you to come and get it!?  Or is there something you dream of sporting one day!?

My husband and I never had a wedding ceremony…we just eloped…I hope one day, I can wear a wedding dress and have the wedding I have always dreamed of…

Beach Wedding Dresses

A while ago, my husband bought me a tennis skirt…and my hope is to one day wear it on the tennis court and feel comfortable…

…and I have a full length fitted black dress that I used to look like da bomb in…and I am keeping it (it’s probably vintage by now: )…because I really want to wear it….just one more time…maybe on my honeymoon!

    I have a HUGE stack of clothes that I want to reclaim. Like, 6 pairs of jeans, and a bunch of really cute shirts. I want to be able to wear them for my last year in college. I just got done sorting my clothes out that are too small, I put them in this cabinet thing i have in my room, so I see them every day just waiting there for me. And I want to look hot in my dress at my sisters wedding in september, I better get moving!

    I have a pair of ” Make your tush look awesome” pair of jeans I want to get back in. It’s like I am the donkey, and the jeans are the carrot in front of me!:)

    I have a pair of purple cord (totaly tacky now) from 1982 (cant believe I admitted that. I held them because I wore them the night I met J and they fit gooood and I felt gooood. Anyway, Id like to be able to put them on one day just for kicks.
    Also, I dont know what it is about a little white tennis skirt but I have for many years had that dream of looking sporty and sassy in on eof those :)

    Woo Hoo! That is so awesome! It is such a wonderful feeling to fit in something smaller. I have gone down a few sizes. I mostly do my shopping at second hand stores right now. I have bought myself a few things I really liked in smaller sizes as in incentive.
    You go, girl!
    Have a great day!

    I have a closet full of clothes that I want to wear again! I keep moving them closer to the front of the closet so that I have to look at them. This way I see them and remember how good I use to look and feel in them and how BAAADDD I want to get in them gain.

    That is so awesome, girl! Sadly, I have thrown away most of my old clothes, so I can’t come back to reclaim them. But I’m sure looking forward to that next shopping spree I take LOL~
    Keep up the good work - you are truly an inspiration! ;-)

    Nope! not me! My reward for my weight loss will be new clothes. I too have lost inches I dropped a size and a half since last winter so what I already had fits a lot better now. I am not buying anything else yet! The small? stuff I have is really outdated it’s been too long since I have been small, lol! Congrats! on your progress!

    Congrats!! I love being able to shop in my own closet!

    I have some size 18 jeans that I want to wear again. I have already thought of hanging those jeans in the kitchen for inspiration, but not sure if that might backfire on me.
    Yet, I dream of a dress that I can feel beautiful in-(I dont wear dresses and haven’t for years because of my size.) I want a knockout dress that makes me feels sexy again! Good job and Congrats!

    Christie, you started another great thread! I saw the title and cracked up because I just had this conversation with my wife last night. She wants to buy me some new shirts and shorts for the Summer because mine are all too loose right now, but I want her to wait because I have a TON of them in my closet another size or two down.

    Like I told her, “Don’t buy anything now, if all goes well I’ll only be at this size for a short time!”

    I have two pairs of jeans that I like the way my butt looked, and a dress that I liked.

    I’m about 5 pounds from the dress and 10 pounds from the jeans.

    I want a little naughty, slimmer and sexy suit for Christmas this year!

  15. 1fatdiva @ June 26th, 2008

    Me too Chrisie. I just pull down my jeans with out unzipping them because I thought they were the ones with elastic. Nope! Time to head for the back of the closet again. Yippeeee-Dee

  16. chrisie @ June 26th, 2008

    That is awesome Dee!!!!

  17. Jennifer @ June 26th, 2008

    Way to go fitting into those clothes Chrisie! That is fantastic! I know what you mean about having a few others still in the closet, waiting. We can do it ;)

    There’s this slinky little red number that I’ve been dying to try on. Trouble is, I don’t have the heels to go with it. :P

    Well, I do have this dress that I bought like three weeks ago at the mall that I thought looked so great on me in the store…mind you…I couldn’t pass it up, it was only $14.00! I got it home and thought to myself…you can’t wear that out in public girl…what were you thinking. It was a little too tight. I haven’t tried it on since. I’d like to get into that dress and look damn hot :) I think I’m going to try it on right now…see you later!
