BUY NEW CLOTHES NOW !

I wonder if any of you are a bit like me and go around still wearing slightly baggy clothes rather than buy some in the next size down? I have a short story to tell that may encourage any that do that to invest in smaller clothes EVEN if they might not fit you for long. Yesterday i had a bad day as i wrote about in my diary. As i was weighing in at the clinic and i didnt want to wear heavy clothes like jeans, i wore a pair of Slazenger black stretchy gym pants with a red stripe down the side. I have been wearing them on and off (of course!) all winter. Anyway, i was feeling fat again even tho i have lost 7.5kg in 5 weeks. I also felt as if i was dilusional and that i hadnt really lost weight after all and even tho my tummy is A LOT smaller, it just seemed to be sticking out to me! It was like wearing some kind of negative cloak all day and i just couldnt shake it off and as i also wrote in my diary, i even gave in to the feelings of being a failure and had some wine!

Anyway, today i got up and had to get ready quickly to go to college. Put on my NEW SIZE 10 jeans that fit me where they hit me, together with a tight black T shirt and my high heeled boots and you know what, i felt like a million dollars again! Kept checking myself out in the mirror and i reckon i look like I've lost MORE than 7.5kg - i feel like a whole new person NOW that i have new clothes that show off my shape. And yet, these size 10 jeans will be way to big when i get to goal with at least 8 kilos to go. Another six weeks max and those size 10 jeans will have to go! So its worth it to update your wardrobe around every 6kg mark as that usually means you've dropped a clothes size.

The moral of this story is i AM NEVER WEARING THOSE make me feel fat pants ever again! They are gone and so had the person i was that wore them. What do others think about this idea? Pandora
