Don't get me wrong, this is a wonderful gift but I really don't want to spend all that money and then only be able to wear the clothes for a short time. Any ideas on what might be most likely to still be wearable after I lose 40 or 50 lbs?
    I love Coldwater Creek. Most of my clothes and all of my purses are from there.

    I say, treat yourself right. You can look good while you lose! Treat yourself to some nice new sweaters in your current size and maybe a blouse in the next smaller size, and then buy a bag, some earrings, or home decor with the remaining $$. have a ball.

    Now we need to dance with you, Carrie. Nothing succeeds like success. Once your number headed downward, you have kept going in that direction. :thumbup:

    Thank you! I don't know how it happened because I had put 3lbs. on but I felt so bloated so I think it was just water. I spent the last 2 days having to pee all of the time so when I weighed today I was shocked to see the 3lbs. plus 2 more gone. I had mt DD take a picture of me today wearing not so baggy clothing and I just can't get over the difference.
