…Keep them as a reminder? I sortof want to keep. Yesterday i was not paying attention. Threw on these shorts and they fell right off. A part of me wants to keep but i have told myself i will never fit in them again!!

I have been giving mine away to the free thrift store at our food bank, as I pick up smaller clothes each month. The problem I have now is that I have to buy any smaller clothes, as they don’t have smaller sizes in men’s pants. Men never want to admit they will not fit into the jeans they wore in college, so they hang onto them until they die.

All mine went to goodwill.

I have been giving mine away too, I would rather other people are using them =) and I don’t want them around as I am never wearing them again!!

I kept one top, which is the one I was wearing in the only pre-keto picture I have. It’s to remind me why I’m doing this.

I like that idea. No need to keep everything, but a representative outfit makes a nice reminder of progress. :bacon::bacon:

Most of mine has gone to goodwill or the trash if not in good condition. I have kept one pair of pants to demonstrate how much I have lost when I get to maintenance weight.

I sew so if I really like something I’ll make it fit but otherwise, goodwill. I don’t need reminder clothing, I remember just fine. :grin:

I’m trying to forget.

Me too! I have this Muumuu that I made into a sleeveless dress at my heaviest. I thought it was the cutest tent ever but it’s now my “before” photo. What was I thinking? And purple flowers on top of that!

I kind of wish I had kept a pair of my biggest jeans, but not very much.

My wife usually donates them, as long as they are good. I do have a suit that when I was at my biggest size. I’ll have to remember to take a picture of me in that.

I went to have that taken in, and the person said I was too thin, he couldn’t take the pants/jacket in that much. Same with some nice sport coats I had. I nice NSV, but a hit to my pocketbook.

Ha ha! That’s funny! :smile:

I kept just one pair of jeans from when I was at my biggest. They were my favorite jeans at the time, so I kept them just for nostalgia.
