OMG.........I went through all my stuff today......bags and bins of things I was "storing" for Spring and Summer. The amount of clothing, particularly shirts that I have bought since surgery is actually staggering! I am not exxagerating to say I could go from now until Fall and never wear a shirt twice.
I guess I called it reward, cause we know food is not a good one. I love shopping and I DO seriously get great deals.....but this is actually kind of nauseating. The only good things that made me feel slightly better were that I can wear the shirts and tanks year round since I pair them with sweaters or jackets in other seasons, the fact that I am close enough to goal that many of the shirts should fit until they die, and the fact that I didn't do quite as bad about shorts and capris, which are VERY seasonal here in Ohio and more vulnerable to size changes. I guess what I thought was a distraction had run straight into addiction.
Definitely a wake up call to find better outlets (NO, not THOSE kinds of outlets.....with Nautica, Gap, Old Navy....mmmmm) and rewards now. My head is hung in shame and my closet is STUFFED!
