congratulations on the weight loss! that's incredible! I can relate to the 'too poor to buy new skinny clothes'
...which is why i'm SO thankful that my sis held onto some of the 'i'll never ever fit into these again take them AWAY' clothes i pruned out of my closet several years ago... b/c they're fitting now! weee! true most are way out of style, but i have two good pairs of jeans to last me until i can afford new ones :D
Keep up the good work! No problem with switching to maintenance for a while... although you're probably going to keep losing, just at a slower rate. But if you need a break go for it! just remember not to go back to the old habits, keep the new habits and just give yourself more play room. You can live life and eat well w/out saying f* it ALL. Afterall.. you don't want to have to go through this all again in a few years do you? ;P
The stupid part is that I've gotten so accustomed to eating low-cal, it's actually been difficult for me to increase my calories...even by just a hundred or two per day. What's THAT about?! LOL
It boggles my mind to think about it... but I don't think I've been this "small" in at least 7 years, maybe closer to 10. I honestly can't remember what I used to wear! There was a long phase for me where I wore only men's pants or jeans, because women's pants didn't fit me right (if they were big enough for my thighs and hips, they were WAY to big in the waist, or they'd be too snug and "revealing" in general). But with the recent advances in boot-cut and lower-waist technologies, I have much better luck with women's pants nowadays. The only thing I'm missing is MONEY (OK, really a JOB with which to get MONEY)
