anyone having fun buy transition stuff?

[Guest guest]

Everyone I know keeps saying that it must be so much fun to buy new clothes

since my old ones are all too big. It would be fun if I were at goal, but

right now it is just frustrating. I feel like I am throwing money away

because I seem to grow out of things so fast. I bought new pants when my

medical leave was over at 6 weeks post-op. Five weeks later all those

clothes I bought are too big. I bought new pants that fit great right now,

but how long will that last? I had considered buying and selling from a

resale shop, but there isn't one nearby and they are all closed when I can

get there. I just wish people would understand that spending money on

transition clothes isn't fun. Of course when I reach goal it will be lots of

fun buying new stuff that looks good.
