You can always pick up a couple pair of khaki slacks as you drop weight.

You only need a few "nice" clothes at any one time, so you're doing well by not buying a complete wardrobe every 30-40lbs (or so).

I had my skinny clothes, all the way to my fat clothes, so I really didn't have to buy much when I dropped weight. I've since "burned my (clothing) bridges" behind me by donating every pair of slacks with a waist over 36" to charity. Hopefully that will ensure I don't go back...lol I made it down to a legitimate 34" waist (and a 32" stretch waist...lol)

It might be time to go back on program, since I've added a little weight and some of my 36s are feeling snug.
