Skinny Girl/Fat Clothes

I know I am not 'skinny' yet, but I am almost there and I feel like I am. This last week has been great, besides the fact that I am swimming in all of my clothes. I understand that that’s a good thing, but when I don't want to go shopping yet it becomes a bad thing. I have a few pairs of jeans from my "use to be skinny days" that are slowly starting to fit or are starting to get to big as well. But all of my work pants are gigantic. And I can't do anything about it, but put on a belt and feel like a bum.

I was going through my closet the other day to figure out what summer clothes are still going to fit me and what isn’t that is going to go to good will. Come to find out pretty much everything I own is going out the door. A lot of my shirts are still fine, but I just need new ones. I am not about to go out thought right now with 20lbs still left to loose and buy new clothes. And then have those all turn out to be to big as well. So its really hard for me to just deal with what I have, a lot of my skirts for proms and church are just falling right off... its wonderful!

The other thing going through my head right now is, how am I going to dress when I am a new person? What will I wear? I am not very stylish in any way, thanks to all those hand-me-downs when I was a child. I try to be, but I always feel out of place when I get cute stuff that I think will make me look good. It’s hard for me to transition into the adult clothes, because I look so young I feel weird in that section. But at the same time 'teen' clothes are just a little to iffy anymore. What am I going to do? It’s going to be interesting, because I am turning into a different person, and when I was this skinny last time I was a teenager and living in CA. Now I am a young adult stressed out about what to wear.

I do have to say I am excited to go shopping when I have reached my goal weight. I just don't know how successful I am going to be. I have friends who are stylish, but they have their own style. I just have to find mine again. Any ideas how to do that ladies? I know its going to take time to figure it out and just like loosing weight it isn't going to happen over night.

A last little note about clothes... I am finding that I really hate baggy clothes now, anything that doesn't fit me anymore I hate. I am not out there wearing tight shirts and pants that I can't breathe in. But... I do feel fat again in them when I look down at myself in my jacket that is a large and should now be a medium, and my favorite puffy down vest... that I am swimming in... They all look like sh*t on me now. O well though, right?

My sister wanted to see some photos of me, since she lives in CA and hasn't seen me since I was 'fat'.
