I have lost 2 stone and 3 inches off my waist in the past year or so. As a consequence, I have a who wardrobe that doesnt fit - suits, jeans, shirts, the lot.

Any ideas of what to do with it, other than the obvious "give it to the local charity shop"

    keep it for when you put the weight back?

    i know the feeling, i dropped c. 14kg, but i've kept most stuff, replacing is too expensive, i can live with baggy

    Limited options really, apart from the obvious.

    Keep one item as a reminder of how fat you were and get rid of the rest, forcing yourself to stay slimmer.

    It wasn't really deliberate, I just rode my bike a lot!

    I wasn't really that fat - 32-33 inch waist. Woudl fit a regular dude!

    Post something at work or just give to someone who would fit that size?

    Im the same, lost a stone and half, dropped from a 42 to a 38 chest and my suits are too lose and baggy now.

    Ive given the not so expensive ones to friends who would fit. This weekend I shrunk some of my jumpers via tumbe dryer :)

    No. Do the obvious. Give it to the charity shop.

    You will feel better.
    You will be less likely to put the weight back on.

    Big tshirts from the fat days come in handy for cleaning chains and oily bits.

    Donate it all to the Philippines appeal that we've all forgotten about as it was so long ago that it must all be ok out there by now. Probably.

    Hope I'm not the only one who wondered why you were trying to wear a cupboard btw. Edit 2 - obviously not, see below... :)

    Is it bigger on the inside than it looks from the outside?

    Assuming it's that sort of "who" wardrobe. If it's the other kind, you could stand on top of it and see for miles and miles. ;)
