You are so right about helping others! I've already donated 3 trash bags of everyday clothes to Boomerang's here in Boston (a charity that supports those with AIDS), along with several work outfits to Dress for Success. The Dress for Success people were pretty happy to see my clothes since they are always in need of larger sizes. I've also started a new bag with clothes I bought between February and June because those are too big now. I'm going to run into trouble though in December for our Sea Dream cruise in December because I don't have any shorts that fit! I do still have the pants and shirt that I wore the day I signed up at Jenny Craig - I really need to take a picture wearing them, because it would be hilarious.
Andrea, you will get there soon! I know! Isn't it great! I also know what you mean about the shorts. We are heading to Disney World before Christmas with the kids (28 and 31 year old kids! LOL). I got shorts that were a little too small at the beginning of the summer and they are way too big now, with no shorts to be found anywhere. I thought I would be OK, since the summer was over and now that we are going, I may have to get some new ones when we get there.

I think that the picture wearing your old clothes is a great idea. You have to do it!!! If I put on my old suit, I would look like Tom Hanks in the movie "Big", diverting back at the end to the little kid, but still wearing the "big" suit!

Marcie and Joanna, I promise to get a new picture posted soon of me in my sleeker new duds!

Donna, sounds like quite a workout! Great way to lose weight though! Keep it going!

Don
