this morning i was happily surprised to discover that none of my pants fit, they've become all too big for me. they were getting loose reeeal slowly over time but i can finally say they're all actually too obviously big to wear anymore.
It's great and all, except none of my belts are any good anymore either and i don't have money to go buy new smaller pants..
:s
i'm resorting to layering for them over leggings now so they stay up but its not very comfy.. i'm gonna have to try and sew a few to make them smaller i think?

what do you guys do when all your clothes become too big and you don't have money for more?

I am about to come into that problem. I saved all my smaller sizes from pre-pregnancy and now that I'm closer to my pre weight, they are getting baggy. Another 10lbs or so and they'll all be too big. Sales? Thrift stores? JCPenny/Kohl's, etc. Target. That's not a bag idea though to get some things altered. I should do that with my bigger sizes that don't fit me now.

In the winter, you can layer up, but for summer I just do my best with charity shops and rocking the baggy look :')

That was actually the entire reason I started going to thrift stores. I was losing weight at a surprisingly fast rate when I was heavier, and I didn't have the money to keep buying new clothes.
