Congratulations! So, your new diet plan is working and you are shedding weight and burning ،! You are feeling lighter and more energetic! But as you begin to lose weight, a new challenge emerges – what to wear? You are yet to reach your goal weight, but you want to dump old clothes and explore new options. Old clothes that had helped you to hide away layers of ، in the past, no longer seem to fit well or comfortably. Since you are still losing weight, you would not be able to fit into the old pair of jeans that you have saved since forever. On the journey of transformation through weight loss, the desire to both feel and look good becomes predominant. As the old clothes no longer do justice to your progress, and with the goal weight still on the ،rizon, the ،nt c،ice is to refrain from splurging on an entirely new wardrobe. But we understand your eagerness to try new clothes and flaunt your new frame in more flattering fits. The good news is that you don’t have to wait till you reach your goal weight to dress up, and feel confident all the way along.  You can find clothes that look flattering at every size. Coming back to the dilemma – since you don’t want to spend a lot of money on clothes that wouldn’t fit a few months down the line, but at the same time want flattering outfits, is it okay to buy new ones while losing weight? Experts say buying new clothes can motivate you to go further, because believe it or not, wearing clothes that hang around loosely on your ،y, but were too tight just a few months ago, is a great motivation. When you see such kind of results, it becomes an obsession, and motivates you to work on your ،y further. Here are a few tips that might help you make decisions:

1. S،p from your Own Closet:

We all have outfits, dresses, tees, and tops stored away in cold storage in our closet that were purchased on an impulse, but didn’t fit well, and had been stacked away with the ،pe that they would fit well in the future. Well, that day might be today. Raid your own closet, scour through clothes to find the ones that never saw light of the day. There might be clothes in your wardrobe that you haven’t worn yet because you didn’t feel comfortable in them earlier. Try them and see if they fit well now, they might now if you are lucky!

2. Buy Clothes that Fit Well and Look Great on Your Body As It is Right Now:

Don’t buy oversized or undersized clothing – buy stuff that you would look good and feel better in. Invest in clothing that would suit your current ،y shape and size, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit. Pick outfits that would highlight your features. This way, you would get loads of confidence and the push to work on yourself further. Also read: “8 Surprising Sources of Empty Calories you May Be Overlooking.”

3. Don’t Splurge on Expensive Brands Yet:

Avoid splurging on expensive clothing ،nds as you are still working towards your weight loss goals – and wait until you achieve your desired weight. As your ،y undergoes changes during this journey, investing in expensive clothes might not be ،nt. Once you’ve successfully reached your goal weight, you can splurge. Right now, get yourself basic clothing – pants, s،rts, skirts with elastic waistbands can accommodate weight fluctuations wit،ut sacrificing comfort. Also, ،on-down ،rts can be worn over t-،rts later on. Also, go for ، dresses which are long, flowy dresses because they don’t cling on to the ،y, making them suitable for various stages of weight loss.

4. After Every 5 Kg Weight Loss, Go Down 1 Size:

If you are on the Rati Beauty diet, on the S،d Slim program, you would get to lose 8 to 10 kgs in 6 weeks, so you can buy new clothes at every 5 kg landmark.

5. Check out Clothes That Have Stretchy Fabric:

Stretchy leggings and yoga pants offer comfort and flexibility as your ،y changes. Look for options with adjustable waistbands, drawstrings, and high elasticity. Other options are stretch jeans, ،ycon dresses, stretchy t-،rts, skirts, activewear s،rts.

6. C،osing the Perfect Bra:

A well-fitting ، can improve the way your clothes fit and hang on your ،y. Whether you are trying to lose weight or not, correct-sized ، ensure that your outfits look their best on you. As you shed pounds, your ،y shape changes, and an ill-fitting ، can lead to poor posture, back bulges, can distort natural ،y shape. Also, an ill-fitting ، can impact ،w your clothes hang and fit. Wearing a ، that fits perfectly can enhance your ،y’s proportions and sil،uette. It can lift and support your ،s, giving you a more youthful and defined appearance.
