Oh yes!!!

150 of them to be precise! But not pounds in weight, pounds as in £££££££££££££ !!!!!

I just went out and bought a whole new winter wardrobe in lower sizes, ranging from 26/28 down to 22/24 - same store, different manufacturers, hence the size differences, but oh boy, did I have fun! What I've bought today should last me until I'm down another couple of sizes too.

Made such a change from going into the store and just grabbing anything in a 30/32, not because I liked it, but because it would fit :(

I even bought jeggings, leggings AND trousers - all the tops I bought were long enough to hide my saggy tummy! I haven't worn trousers in years and years!

Good job most of the money came from vouchers given to me for my Hallowe'en birthday - I didn't have to add too much to it!

OK, I still have a long, long journey in losing weight, but I sooooo enjoyed today!

    Thankyou!

    I've never had a proper winter wardrobe, I mainly buy new clothes in the summer for holiday, but I've thrown out all my summer clothes now as they'll be way too big next year, and I desperately needed some warm clothes, and to come back up to date in fashion - fed up being frumpy!

    I didn't aim to spend as much as I did, but I think I deserve a treat, and by making careful choices, the clothes I bought will still look good when I've lost another couple of stones!

    The scales weren't brilliant for me this week either, as I didn't lose anything (think a bottle of birthday Baileys contributed!) but this shopping spree has certainly got me motivated big time to keep up the hard work.

    Good luck everyone!
