Shopaholic? Me?

One of the best side effects of diet pills, dieting and losing weight is the need to buy a new wardrobe (unless you yo-yo diet and then have a wardrobe full of different size clothes). I used to be a huge size 24 and slowly (and I mean slowly) have slimmed down to a size 16 verging on a 14.

I was so unused to having lost weight and afraid that I would put it back on because I was destined to be fat forever, that I refused to give away any of my “fat” clothes, especially when I got pregnant. However 2 pregnancies later and I have mantained my weight. It is only recently that I have been giving them away as they have lain unworn for a few years now except for my last trimester in both pregnancies. It did save me buying lots of maternity clothes that would hardly get used. 

But I still have not found that push I need to move down to a size 14. As a 16 tends to be baggy and a 14 too tight, I am in a huge shopping dilema… and I end up not buying. And this is sad, especially as Debenham’s have an up to 70% off sale!
