A friend of mine, Shannon, came to visit me today. She lives about an hour away so I don't see her very often, though we keep in pretty good contact online. She had a bunch of movies and tv shows I wanted, so she brought them up for me to snag. Since I've been packing for the move I went through all my clothes and piled all the clothes that don't fit me anymore. (The picture shows just some of the clothes I cleaned out!) I found it really therapeutic to clean out all those clothes. Every so often I would put on one of the items, just to remind myself of how much I've lost. It is crazy the difference, seriously. I have hardly any clothes left now, of course, and my closet is totally empty. The remaining clothes that fit would just about fit in one drawer of my dresser, but it feels really seeing only size 18 and XL-1X instead of size 24 and 3X-4X.
As it turns out Shannon is more or less the size I used to be so she was able to take basically all of them! It was great. A lot of them were still really nice and in really good condition, and a lot of them are really cute and fashionable. It feels good that someone will use and enjoy them. Honestly, as depressing it is to have hardly any clothes that fit, it feels great having those way-too-big clothes out of my house, and as happy as I am that she was able to go home with two giant garbage bags of clothes, I'm even happier that they don't fit me anymore. :)
