One of the "good" "bad" results of losing weight is having to buy more clothes. And more clothes!
I have had to buy 2 suits, new belts, shirts, slacks etc. to the tune of a substantial amount of money. It is fun to find "new" "old" clothes that I saved for "when I lose weight" and it has actually happened, but I didn't save enough and I didn't realize how old they were.
The thought crossed my mind that this could be the last suit I will ever buy, considering my age. Although I hope to keep working for at least 6 more years, (and living for many more than that) I don't wear suits every day, so they could last for a considerable period of time. The slacks, shirts etc. probably (or should I say hopefully!) will be replaced since they will wear out, although I still occasionally wear my 40 year old cowboy boots, and some 30 year old shirts and coats!
I did pick some sizes that will allow me to lost more weight (my goal is another 20 lbs) and hopefully not have to replace everything!
