As I've speeded down the size chart...staying in some sizes for just a few weeks, I've fell in love with shopping in thrift stores like goodwill and salvation army. Being able to get tops and jeans for just a few bucks each has saved me a ton of money. I've gotten some nice stuff too...you gotta spend some time sorting thru a bunch of not so great stuff to find things you like...but it is worth it...and kind of fun.

^^^ I'm with you.  I've found some great things in thrift and consignment stores.  And the more weight I lose, the better the selection.  I go to one thrift store that lets you fill up a plastic shopping bag for $5 on Fridays.  Last week I got two pairs of jeans and three tops.  Can't beat that!

My friend refers to Goodwill as "the Boutique". I'm going there as soon as I'm back on my feet.

Thrift shops will be your new best friend.  You should also see if your support group has any sort of clothing exchange.
