I am one size above my goal and I plan to acheive my goal weight, size and shape, within a couple of months. I am not that far from it now but I am wondering if I should shop at my current size or the size I plan to be. I don't want clothes to be to big from weight loss but I also don't want anything too tight. I like my clothes to fit me perfectly (snug but not to the point of discomfort).
Any suggestions?

shop in your current size and purchase a few items in your goal size. you never know what might happen so you dont want to spend money on sometihng you can never wear

Don't do any shopping yet. If you need one or two things to get you through, then buy them in your current size. Wait the extra month or two to get to your goal before you go on any big shopping trips. If you do need some things, then go get them cheap at some discount store, like Target or something, so you aren't spending a ton of money on things that won't fit in a month or so.
You don't know exactly how your body will end up when you are at your goal. And just because your goal is a size 4, it doesn't mean that every size 4 will fit you and look good on you when you get into that size. So buying it now means you couldn't wear it properly, and you might not be able to wear it when you've reached your goal. You never know,so don't spend your money just yet.

Always buy clothes that fit you now. What if you don't lose the weight? Or what if you lose more than you thought originally? Then you have wasted time and money on clothing that is useless to you.
Nothing makes you bod look better than wearing clothes that properly fit you. Wear what fits, stick to your goal...and then you can buy all new clothes again as you lose the weight. What fun! It will be a good way to reward yourself for losing the weight.

Buy a few things in your current size for now, and maybe 1 or 2 things in the size you want to be... something that is really expensive or something you'll love to wear out on a date, it may get you even more motivated to lose the weight! GOOD LUCK!

Well if you're not needing clothes desperately right now, why don't you just wait for a couple months until you're the size you want to be. that way, you won't waste money by buying clothes that wont' fit you in a month, and you don't waste money on clothes that you won't be able to wear for a month anyway. just be patient and see how your diet goes.

Don't do a massive shop yet, I mean don't splurge because either way whatever you pick you won't fit into in 2 months or now. Buy some essentials for now, and get to your goal and then do a massive shop for yourself.

if u wanna shop get the stuff that u absolutely need like coats or whatever. i would suggest that u wait and shop after u lost ur weight. then u will have the body u wanted and clothes that fit right.

Buy only what you need in your current size. When you get to the size that you would like to be - shop then! :)

Don't do a massive shopping spree. I would just buy clothing as you need it, but obviously don't clear out your entire closet now. So continue to buy clothes that fit well for now, and downsize when you need to.
