I can relate to the baggy pants problem! I have lost just over 40 pounds since starting the EFI diet at the beginning of the year. I've gone from a large size 16 to a size 10

Of course, I wasn't smiling the whole time, though. I had to just make do with the clothes I had (and the old "skinny clothes" from the back of the closet), and constantly tugging on baggy frumpy clothes got old very fast. I found some great deals at a local consignment store where I got several pairs of name brand jeans and slacks for less than $10 each. I could not afford to buy an entirely new wardrobe, which is exactly what I need. I have been getting things on sale, at consignment stores, and on ebay. Yesterday I went to Victoria's to get fitted for a new bra (it's been a long time!). I've gone down 2 band sizes and 1 cup size since this time last year. I bought one at the store with a gift card, and I am buying a couple more on ebay (half price or less for new bras!).

Try not to get too frustrated with the baggy clothes. It's a temporary problem. I'm still losing a little, but not like I was at first. Just do what you can to make do until your weight balances out and then try to find some great deals on some new skinny clothes!
