why did i get rid of my fat clothes?

sooooo, today is day three of the new weight watchers program... i say new, even tho it's not really, because i've recently restarted my journey... after a ten pound gain, i'm ready to lose it again, and get back into the clothes in my closet...

it's ridiculous the depression that comes from looking at a huge closet full of clothes you can't wear... i lost some weight and went down a size... i took the advice i've read in several places to get rid of my 'fat' clothes because that supposedly keeps you from gaining the weight... well i did and now i have nothing to wear! it was a good idea in theory... except theory doesn't help my food cravings and binges that have lead to needing those clothes again... a few of the pants i gave to my stepdaughter i could ask for back... but i'm thinking that would be rude :(

so i guess i'm stuck with one option - loss the weight... and then some, hopefully! again, i'm not going to get to my original goal, but i can make a new one and really strive for it... with summer coming up i can't imagine wearing capris and tanks looking like i do right now, let alone my bathing suit... i mean, i wasn't by any means attractive looking in them when i was ten pounds lighter, but the extra weight really doesn't do well for my confidence... at least i felt decent when i was a little lighter...

i've also realized i don't really have any workout clothes that fit... i usually wore adidas 'swish' pants (i have no other name for them except the sound they make when i walk), but now those are too small... and when i went last night, the shirt i wore was not only a little tight, but rode up during the different positions we were in during the core class (stupid planks!)... now this is a serious predicament!! i'm too fat for my gym clothes, so i can't get to the gym to get thinner!!

well i'm done venting, no wait, whining, for the day... i'm off to catch up on other blogs... i LOVE reading what people have to say!! and i really like seeing the pics people post of their before and after shots! it really makes me motivated to get there myself!

Get right back on that horse and make healthy choices. If you need clothes to wear to the gym, pick up a few things at a thrift store. You can do this!
