Talking NOT A KNIT WIT ANYMORE!!!!
Sometime well over a year ago, I transitioned from "real" clothes to knits. They had more give, I could gain a pound and not worry, they were cheap and cute...I can tell you 100 reasons why but the truth of the matter is, I WAS TOO FAT TO FIT IN MY REGULAR CLOTHES. There. I said it.

This morning, I got up with a knit outfit in mind. Put it on and I'm just not feeling it. Now I'm in scramble mode. You know how it is when you've planned your day from the outfit down to the second you get out the door? One false move and you're late for work! So, I rushed back into the closet (the fat side-not the skinny side). I look down the rack and see a pair of pants I know I haven't worn in two years. What are they doing in THIS side of the closet? They are in the wrong place. But they made me stop. They made me think. They MADE ME PUT THEM ON. Guess what? THEY FIT!!! I can start retiring (burning) the knits and go back to real clothes. It's like having a new wardrobe!!!

One more dress size and I'll be in the skinny closet! (The high end of the skinny closet but there none the less!!!)
He's the man at our house!

Way to go Maggie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You girl girl.....I am with you....as soon as I can fit into some of my old things....I am going to burn, throw away, give away, destroy...etc, those FAT clothes away!!!!!!!!! I had gotten so dissapointed at one point, that I threw out alot of my smaller sizes accepting that I was just going to stay this way and continue to not feel good about me. So now when I get back down to "ME"....I get to go on a shopping spree!!!!!!!!!!!! I will have such a good time!!!!!!!!

You keep it going woman!!!!! You are doin' the damn thang!!!!!!!!!
Thoughts become things....choose the good ones!

That is GREAT.

Loved the part about the *side of the closets you have. I use to have that kind of closet too!

Hope you weren't late to work, but hey - even if you were ... you were looking good in your skinny clothes!
