How great! I remember after losing weight, a friend told me i looked "frumpy" because all my clothes hung on me. For some many years I dress to cover up my body, definitely had self image problem. The retailers are better at providing selections in bigger sizes, but you definitely have more options as you lose weight.
The next step is to throw, donate or sell the larger sizes. DO NOT keep them "just in case". In my area, there is a consignment store that I use to shop at for "bigger" sizes, Then I sold my bigger sizes there and was able to buy smaller sizes.
Again, congratulation

@suzmaine and @roch, thank you both! It does feel good. I made sure the new clothes fit and aren’t on the loose side.
And, I have gathered most all of the larger clothes and set aside to donate at a local domestic violence women’s center that has discounted clothes to raise funds. I’m not keeping any large clothes.
