HELP!!

[plymouthmaid]

Really need some advice. Have recently lost weight and have dropped from a size 22 to a size 16. Have got a tummy and large thighs and am totally stuck on what to wear for the summer. I went shopping yesterday and couldn't find anything at this rate I'm going to be wearing my winter wardrobe!!
Thanks

Oh, same as me pretty much! I've gone from a 24-26 to currently a 14-16. Are you still losing weight? My problem is, now I'm this determined to lose I'm going to keep going till my goal of... whenever I'm happy, so anything I buy is just for now! I'm buying a lot in Primark, on ebay and stuff in sales. I have no idea what I'll do as it gets warmer, just stick with short jeans I suppose but then I'm a nanny so casual is best for me. I'm saving dresses and skirts till I get to my goal!

Well done on the loss though, I can't believe how different is has made me feel on a sunny day like today so I'm looking forward to a comfier summer!

Well done to you to! I need to dress smartly for work and this is what is causing me the biggest headache. I am still losing weight and and the clothes I buy aren't lasting very long. I've been used to wearing tent like outfits for a lot of summers and am now really unsure what I should be wearing.

Oh dear, I can't help with smart clothes really- have you tried Matalan? I have a freind who gets cheap work-wear there. I'm with you on the tents though! It's very odd to have a waist again. Could be worth going into shops and trying things on then looking for similar bits on ebay? One thing I did do was get the same brand of jeans in every size down from my start of 22 down to 10! In the 12s right now but I know I have something to fit when I lose more. Cheap ones though, Matalan, I just got them all on ebay as I know which length fits!

Haven't thought about Matalan but will pop in and have a look!

I seem to have loads of tops but not trousers. I don't like skirts either
Have rolled up my skinny jeans today which actually looks ok
I have a pair of cotton khaki cropped trousers and I have just spotted some jersey cropped harems on the m&s site - the reviews say they are really really flattering

Same as me,tops aren't a problem it's finding bottoms that look ok.
