Ok, I have a quick minute and here is what I am working on today. I am a clothes horse but a lot of what I own right now does not fit- not even close and even though I am losing a 1 lb. a week, it will be awhile before I get into those clothes. SO I set up 2 bins (organized by sizes) and filled them with everything that doesn't fit and put them in the storage closet. I have very few things now but I am more motivated to fill up that closet again. I work backwards from most people, I am very visual, so seeing my closet now is very motivating. Also, I can't go out and replace the smaller stuff later on but I can store it. It is my goal that April 1, I will pull out the next size down and see what fits. This is actually making me feel better about myself because I know I can't lose 50lbs in a month and fit into those things, but I am getting healthier and my big clothes are getting looser. Anyone want to join in???

Thanks for coming up with this challenge. I have spent the last few weeks thinking about this and cutting many of the junk foods out of my diet as well cooking healthy foods and bringing healthy lunches to work.

I realized a lot of my wardrobe was too "junior" for me. I want a more classy but still young look. J CREW has some great ideas for what I am looking for. I am often mistaken for a college student because of the way I dress is sloppy and quick. I like quick and easy, but I am learning to spend at least 10 extra minutes to do my hair and makeup and put on a cute outfit.

I upgraded my flip flops (I Still wear them around the house, pool, beach, etc) with some nicer sandals with a silver link on them. I bought some straight leg jeans and plain tops with interesting collars. I have one that has a small tie to one side and one that has a small ruffle. Again, I only stick with black, white, pink, turquoise and the occasional purple. Just like my decorating challenge, I fazed out the colors I hated, again red, yellow and green, since they don't look good on my olive skin tone anywho.
