Weight Loss Benefit: New (Old) Clothing

Thursday, November 16, 2006

One fringe benefit of losing weight is it saves you money on clothing.  I now can fit into a lot of clothing that I purchased when I was a couple sizes smaller.

Which reminds me of a tip I read somewhere.  Don't get to fixated on the scale.  Your weight goes up and down, and muscle weighs more than fat.   How your clothing fits can be a better sign of progress.  Especially when you are working hard to lose weight but it's not showing up on the scale.

Current Weight: 189

Good job on your weight loss!

Congratulations on your weight loss! You are almost to your target weight! It is a lot of hard work and I hope you are proud of yourself.

I am glad that you can fit into your "old" clothes, that is a cost savings. I went down four sizes though, and I had to buy new clothes. But, while I was at the thrift shop giving them my donated clothes I was able to buy "new" clothes in my new size. So, I guess I didn't save money like you did. But, this is one time that I didn't mind spending it either!
