That's a lot of weight gone. Happy for you.

I've actually had decent luck at 2nd-hand places like Savers, at least for basics. Since I hope not to be wearing intermediate sizes for all that long, I don't want to spend much on them. You do have to be picky, though, since there is a lot of junk at those places. But you can also pick up quality items for very cheap.

I was amazed at the change in shoe size. I went from a 9.5 to an 8 and had to do some shopping. auntAgonist May 2013 #2
