Time for a de-clutter!


This weekend I took my wardrobe to task - so many things were too big for me now and as I have no plans to put any of the weight back on, it needed a serious de-clutter. I have been left with next to nothing - I pair of jeans, one pair of black trousers, no shorts at all. Many of the tops I've saved are really too big but I can't afford to get rid of everything and as I still have another 1-2 stone to lose, they'll have to make do for now. I reckon I can hide under layers still for the next couple of months and maybe in Spring go shopping! 


Oh how I loved these jeans, I lived in them! 
They're all patched too as I could've never managed without them.


And this top too has been a real favourite - could get 2 of me in it now!


I wore this top the day I met Theo Paphitis. I remember panickily trying to find something to wear that would fit and ended up with the normal cardie on top to hide the bulges!!


I decided to keep some things (just in case!!) but have vacuum bagged them to store away. The charity shop got a good couple of bags worth and I have a few bits to take to my SW group on Friday. It feels good to have had a good sort out and I look forward to buying only things I like from now on, rather than having to buy what fits. Best start saving!

Well done, you're an inspiration! PS I don't know if you're handy with a sewing machine but maybe you could take some of your favourite tops in? Well done again, you're looking brilliant
