And just add 'em to the "awkward pregnancy stage" pile when they're too big! I actually have lots of two sizes of pants in my closet (4s&6s interestingly enough, haha) because depending on what time of the month it is, I'm either one size or the other!<br /><br />And nope, no stencil, but I did print out sample fonts to copy from =)mistihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00081356659284514338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347737109684156629.post-31683159945157876382010-10-05T09:57:38.285-04:002010-10-05T09:57:38.285-04:00Goodwill is a great idea.

When I was losing weight, I managed to get rid of my "big" pants on ebay (they were in great condition) and I still wear Gap jeans that I bought off of ebay. I'm cheap (or frugal, whatever.) I'm big on finding what I love in the store, and then shopping on Ebay for clothes that will fit!jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16902474020422194392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347737109684156629.post-56275021680469021402010-10-05T09:16:05.988-04:002010-10-05T09:16:05.988-04:00chiming in w/them. go get a few pairs for now. you...chiming in w/them. go get a few pairs for now. you've earned them. & when they become too big, pack them away or pass them off.

Wearing pants that are too big for you will make you look bigger than you are, which will mess with your emotions when you catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror. It's worth a few extra bucks to be comfortable in your own skin.Karenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17215364584330849300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347737109684156629.post-51647018561658569032010-10-05T09:04:47.587-04:002010-10-05T09:04:47.587-04:00ahhh, i'm kind of in the same boat. i wore OU...ahhh, i'm kind of in the same boat. i wore OUT the jeans, etc, that were the size i am now while i was gaining my weight.<br /><br />so what i did last week was go spend $50 at goodwill and clothing xchange. bought some good quality stuff that only has to last me a few weeks/months (hopefully weeks!). and even bought a couple of pairs for the next size down since i wore those out too!<br /><br />:)<br /><br />i will donate or give to a friend these jeans since i won't be in them long.<br /><br />so that's what i'd do if i were you. go to goodwill :) or...i could lend you a few size 6 things! i'm a couple months away from them at LEAST. hoping to be there by christmas...Lorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18440537885057746046noreply@blogger.com
