Opinionated
Earlier this week eventually came up with a plan to reward my weight loss progress by earning the right(infact decided it would be an obligation)to throw out an item of clothing.I have a shameful collection of scruffy fat-girl gardening clothes.All old,many wth seriel repairs done to them.Now I'm a great fan of thrift, but i've taken it to farcical extremes.
Also in the cupboard are clothes of various sizes & ages kept for the day that I shall be able to wear them again.Well not if they are totally out of fashion,nor if as I suspect they've been attacked by clothes moths,the elastic has perished or the colour on the exposed surfaces have faded.
So every Tues I get 1 point for each pound lost.
To chuck an item of underwear cost 1 points.
To chuck a major item cost 2 pt.
Unused points can be carried over.
( I may have to re-value my currency depending on how it tallies with the supply of garments ready for dispatch)
(I suppose I could also award myself the points accrued before I set this up,but too much fiddling,of course makes the system a fraud.Suck it & see I say)
Having finally got my head into clear out mode,I now can't wait to see it all being culled.
Start date Tues 9th Jan.Weight 17st.(nb using my scales which probably underweigh by 7lb)
Tues Feb 20th.End week 6 -3lb.
Pr size 22-24 jersey leggings.Elasticated waist had failed & so were falling down.Destination: BIN.1 pt carried over.
My target for next week is on a hanger on my bedroom wall.It's so old & stained it's simply a disgrace.CAN'T wait!
