Out With the Old and in With the New
Nov 03 2009 22:16

I went though my clothes tonight and am getting rid of many of them. Some are now too big for me and the others are clothes that I have been hanging onto in the hopes that I would get into them eventually.

I realized that I have to make my old "small" clothes into my new "big" clothes. I can't hang onto the other items "just in case" I start getting bigger again. I have to be done with them. Therefore, as of tomorrow they are gone.

Now the too small articles that I am getting rid of... well I don't like them and should have never held onto them. I guess because I was so large I just "settled" for whatever I could get. If it fit, then I bought it (or accepted as a gift). Style was never an issue. But I was thinking today and came to the realization that if I earn the privilege to wear a smaller size, then I am going to pick out what I like.  No more settling.
