Hi all!
Ms A's post on "Blouse Joy" just got me to thinking.
How many of us keep the clothes from our various sizes in the closet? I looked in my closet last week and realized that I had everything from size 22 to size 10 (albeit one pair of pants only!) hanging out in there.
I think this is because I am so used to sliding up and down and up and down the scales, that I keep everything there "just in case" and for "when I regain". As this struck me as somewhat disordered thinking (!) -- I mean, as a size 12, if my pants get too tight I have a size 14 to fit into. And doesn't this make it EASY to sink back? I have a full wardrobe in a higher size just waiting for me. So I took the plunge -- I decided to donate EVERYTHING that was too large for me to charity, or throw it away (I don't think anyone wants my raggedy-old pair of XXL grannie panties any times soon ). My theory is that if my pants get too tight, I will have to either get on track or spend some cash.
So the question is:
Have you kept your old clothes? Or did you find that getting rid of them right away was helpful in your journey?
