Shopping is fun.......

[katchmoleen]

....when the reason is that all your clothes are too big! I got a whole new wardrobe at the Goodwill, then sprung for new bras and undies. Note to self: ALWAYS check the price of stuff before you buy it! I was at a more upscale shop to buy bras (only place I can get my size) so I grabbed a couple of five packs of undies without thinking. AFTER I got home, I checked the price.....$27 per five pack!!!!!:eek:

Oh well.....I'm worth it....haha!:D

Now, leaving for Vegas in the morning!

Very cool! That IS fun! Yay you!

[rawrawks]

super important to go to vegas with clean undies!!! Glad you sprang for them! Vegas, clean undies, here we come!!!!

Good for you. I love new clothes at goodwill. I am thrilled to buy all these great clothes for piddly. I got a Vicotoria Secret hoodie my daughter said would be a forutune....for one dollar!!!

I also love when clothes fall off...happened this morning. Pulling out wintry clothes(cuz I am freezing) and too loose, way too loose.

Love raw and rawl working and sculpting. Have fun Kathamoleen!!!!
Is this with or without kids????? Maybe a date with hub?

[katchmoleen]

WITH kids (four youngest) and WITHOUT hubs! Going to a family reunion and my brother hasn't seen me or my kiddos in five years. We have one of those super cheap casino flights......only $500 for all five of us round trip!

Yay for you! Been there, done that. Know the exhileration you are feeling. Went to Ann Taylor for a new LBD. Size 8 petite. Last LBD was a size 20! Yep, know the feeling! I did what you've done, hung out at Goodwill and Kohl's clearance racks (where I could get t-shirts for $2.50 and pants for $5.00. The biggest expense is the underwear, and you are right - you are worth it! (And so am I)

Congrats!

Very cool Katch!

What did everyone say about how you looked on raw?

[katchmoleen]

My relatives who hadn't seen me since July ALL noticed my weight loss, so it was very nice! My day to day friends at church and work STILL haven't noticed! :mad: However, I was still wearing the same clothes. Baggy, but still the same. So maybe when they see me in new clothes that actually fit and are a little more form fitting than previously, they'll notice. We shall see. *I* notice...that's the main thing!

$27 bucks for 5 pairs is not bad at all!! I usually pay 9 to 10 bucks a pair and 50 bucks per bra. It's totally insane, but the cheapies just do NOT fit right!

Man, I can't wait til I can go wardrobe shopping again!

[katchmoleen]

Well....I usually buy the Walmart mega packs, which are like 6 pairs for $10. My two packs of underwear cost as much as the four pants and seven tops and jacket that I bought at Goodwill and Salvation Army!

Holy moly---I love the Goodwill!! I guess they call it Victoria's Secret because you have to keep the credit card bill a secret, haha.
