I think that every girl has that same thought in their minds, when faced with wearing their boyfriends clothes.....what if they don't fit?
I can remember avoiding this like the plague whenever someone offered to wear their clothes. Mostly because well, you saw that picture of me, most likely they wouldn't fit, and who on earth wants to be the girl who cant wear her boyfriends clothes? Two things you never want to weigh more, or not fit in their clothes.
I've worn my manfriends pullovers before. And his boxers. And his comfy pants (which he gave me this weekend to wear cus I felt poopie and he's all sorts of adorable even though I want to strangle him) Monday I forgot pants to workout at lunch. I got in there to change and said.....damn, no pants. It's a sign since I'm sick not to workout. And I came back to my desk.
A coworker that also works out every day, asked me did I have a tshirt he could wear to workout, and I said I did, cuz I forgot my pants! Then he said I could borrow his shorts he had another pair. Coworker is in pretty good shape. He lifts weights, he's in there all the time when I am.
I debated for a few hours whether or not I should go work out cus what if they didn't fit me? I waited until he came back from his workout to go in and try to change and workout. I still think with a big girls mind. Even looking at those pants I thought no way I'll fit into them. But I did. And because of my fear I didn't get to watch the price is right, I had to watch some booty ass HGTV stuff, which is NOT good workout tv.
I'm trying to get over this stuff. Same with space, I see a space to sit and think I won't fit, so I don't try. It use to be uncomfortable for me to go to the movies even.
I got my new credit card, at 0% APR for 6 months. I'm going to be moving my money around for a while. This is all for my debt free in 2010 goal. At least, no credit debt. I'll still have my car.

give your self the benefit of the doubt girl! don't worry about that stuff.
Yes, start telling yourself that you are too skinny to fit in certain clothing and you'll get smaller and smaller. I've heard that that whole mental thing works when trying to build muscle or lose weight.

I know its a change of habit in the mind. I've changed worse mental habits!
Mike:
you're right it is mental! I've tried for years working out and not losing, until I changed to a positive attitude, and tell myself im losing weight, and working out is easy, i didnt lose, or id lose and gain back. ive been in the right direction for over a year now. the mind is more powerful than people give it credit for!
You are doing so well with your weight and look fine, woman. Who cares if those shorts fit or not (other than to workout). Rarely have I ever fit in a man's clothes whether thin or heavier. I have hips and a booty and most men just don't. Smart move for your debt - that is how I got out of mine. I kept transfering balances to 0% apr cards and making huge payments until it was all gone! :-)
Yes, it absolutely is a state of mind that you have to get over... you are in no way not going to fit in any space or pants anymore girl ;) You are looking hot!
