Ok, so now that the lbs. are gone what do you do for clothes ?
Any CREATIVE IDEAS from anyone. If you lose 10 lbs. you go to a different size....yeahhh.
Many don't have the coin to buy a whole new wardrobe...now what?
Gain weight back to be able to go to work not naked ?
Quit your job.
Check out clothesless jobs.
Create a clothes forum so you can exchange from large to small etc.
IDEAS FROM THE TACO LAND OF LOST WEIGHT ?
Serious really .... what to wear smiles .... from LRL.

don't harsh the effort, Lynnie! Currently I'm at One sixty/1, jonesing to get down into the 150's of yore...
The belt can always be tightened...
Needles campground I think, Pagan, I was whisked away from the superbowl by a Svelte temptress when my car threw a right front u-joint. As epics go, that was one of the better ones

Jaybro, what are you talkin' about? You looked great at the Lift. Told you, nice jacket. What about all us that lost weight and now need clothing?
What to do with the wardrobe of clothes that are way not fitting?

Whew! Glad I'm only discovering this one now. Can't afford to be a fat loser like last time, what with the economy being what it is and all. Good luck to you all though!

Dunno, you seemed pretty lean yourself, Lynne. Jacket still fits great, May get back into my 'Lucky you'™ size 30 jeans, though, then, who knows?

Wow, I signed in tonight to post a little something about the diet challenge and here we are already on the front page.
This by far has been the toughest DC for me. In fact tonight I renamed the DC from Diet Challenge to Damage Control. It's not a question of if I'll be paying moreover how much.
Amazingly dropped the 4 pounds for the 2 week weigh in. Hovering there now but I'm eating from a box of crackers while writing this.
So, to answer your question Lynn.... I doubt I'll be sporting the skinny clothes on Monday.
Weigh out anytime on Sunday.

judgement day is coming, and y'all better get ready to write me a big fat check!
I haven't been on a scale in a couple of days, but I am sure that I have lost around 30 pounds.

Ok Tubbo's post up your results and/or email me the final numbers.
Today, Sunday October 19th is the weigh out. You have until 11:59pm tonight to weigh out and submit the results.
-Zip is the big winner
-Russ weighed in at 11+ under
This was by far the worst challenge for me, I was unable to lose much of anything. I'm within ounces of 5 pounds so I'm holding off for my final weigh-out.
How's everyone else doing?

Yeah... c'mon chubba wubba's! How much blubber did ya'll's shed?
Joking aside... I love to follow these. I'm stocked for each and everyone one of you for trying. Ya'll's should be proud!
The great thing about this challenge for me is I've maintained most of the discipline that was required to (barely!) drop the 10 lbs.
BTW... Russ cheats... he merely needs visit the Pinchatorium™ and he drops 9.5 lbs.
Zip: really?

I'd be curious to see a cumulative list from all the DC's (not asking you to do the work sooze!). But it would be interesting to see over the long haul how people fared. Russ always was in the winners circle. Many didn't make it to 10 but most of them dropped something and should be proud. I do recall that there were a few along the way that actually ballooned bigger (Sinson! - LOL!).
