BUY NEW CLOTHES NOW !

[Kristine..]

Yeah, well ....

I finally wore my new Millers Comfort Pants, Size 12 (elastic waist) to work this week

Up until now I have been wearing the Size 16 well, they weren't falling down (all that much) and I figured it didn't really matter so why not?

But now that I am wearing the Size 12 I realise it does matter. For starters, I feel a lot slimmer in Size 12 than I do in baggy Size 16

However, my tops are also Size 16 and I am not, so these are hanging off and looking, simply, frightful.

I never was one for op-shops or wearing second hand clothes. It is End of Season so I should be able to get a half dozen, new, Size 10-12 tops for work (and for play) from Millers / Rivers for $10 or $15 each.

The fear of putting the weight back on will be at the back of my mind for some time, maybe even for years

But in the meantime I cannot walk around like Little Orphan Annie wearing my own hand-me-down clothes, worn by a previous version of myself.

That is really, just too sad.

It will soon be time for short sleeves and brighter colours but in the meantime I feel a strong urge to wear winter and spring clothes that actually fit me.

Lotsa love
