I purged my closet this week. I finally faced reality and admitted that I will never get back to my previous weight (not that it’s a bad thing, but I would like to put about 20 lbs. back on) or anything resembling it to allow me to continue to wear these things.
To that end, all my old 2X and 1X shirts, and all my size 36—and 38!—pants/jeans went to donation. I’m now back to a sensible size 34 pant size and down to a regular large size shirt (basically what I was wearing in my 20s and 30s).
I kept a few shirts that had sentimental value, and a slew of cute, now grossly-oversized printed t-shirts that can still be used to sleep in, because replacing those—assuming I could even find them again in the proper size—would cost a fortune.
