Fat Boy In a Little Coat

If you have clothes that you wish you could fit into but can't what did you do with them?

Am I the only who keeps 'someday' pants?

I feel like such a hypocrite because anything that Bobby has not worn in the past year I tell him to give away but I on the other hand have pants I haven't worn in three years. Some of them are new and still have the tags on them .

I wish I didn't decide to clean the basement last night it depressed me . I wish i didn't think it would be a great idea to make a pile of clothes that don't fit me. 3 feet has never looked so tall .

On a side note I can't wait for lunch .

I totally do that too - I have some 'fat clothes' in my closet, some 'skinny me' clothes, and some 'this is where I'm at now' clothes. So this of course leads to the inevitable, 'what will I wear today???' question every single morning.

I struggle with my fat guy in a little coat feeling at least once a week when I squeeze into pants that I can't even button at the waist and I have kept so many clothes that are a size 4 when now even my 6's are getting tight and yes I can't wait for lunch either!

I have several pair of jeans that I havent worn in years but I am still keeping b/c i'm 'hoping' I will fit back into them oneday...

I say this as I am

Don't worry - you're in good company.

I have a pair of Levis from 14 years ago that I just REFUSE to part with. I also have an entire storage box (or two) full of skirts/pants that are now too small for me to wear but too nice to part with.

Oh, and I already ate my lunch two hours ago- FOR BREAKFAST because I am that disgusting !!!

Oh your a biotch bringing up single digit numbers in my time of need I wish a 6 was just a bit tight on me I can't even get them past my ankles, I know because I tried last night. They are a distant memory of 5 years ago.

The part that really upsets me is all my small clothes are really good quality, expensive clothes. My large clothes are all from Target, Kohl's and Marshalls because I didn't think we would be long term friends .

I do this too I had a pair of pants that fit me only after a 4 day stomach virus I haven't worn them since I have been feeling better.

I don't ask 'what will I wear today' I ask myself 'what will fit today.'

Funny you should bring this up today. I was so happy that I could fit into my denim capris from last summer that I forgot to check if i could DO anything in them like SIT or BREATHE so currently I am sitting at my desk with my pants unbuttoned hoping that I remember to button them before I stand up

well its my work pants I'm thinking of....which a NY&Co. 4, is probably more like a 6, so I think my 'old' size is even further away than I thought and the butt's in my family are our biggest ASSet, so I'm just worried that by the time I have kids my hips will really be out of control even my mom, she's like 105 pds soaking wet, but she's a 'pear bottom' all the way

Get a rubber band and loop it through the button hole then put the other end around the button. I know this just because it's not like I ever had to do this or anything.

I am the fat MacGyver

thats a great idea i have to try it!

I haven't buttoned or zippered anything in 4+ months and I don't think I'm going back.

My maternity wardrobe is so comfy that I'm considering keeping everything and just calling it FATernity wear after .
When not PG my closet has sizes 10 thru 14, and I wear all of them depending on where I fall on the fat/skinny trajectory on any given day.

I too have regularly collected a 3 ft pile of clothes I will never wear again, some with tags, and the only way they LEAVE the house is when I convince myself that a) someone NEEDS those clothes and/or b) I'm not giving it away because I'm fat, I'm giving it away because I don't LIKE it anymore.
