    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    What a nice greeting! :rotfl:

    Happy handbag indeed, Hypno. Is the pattern going to be treating yourself to something for every half stone you lose, roughly?

    Yup, that's the idea - to hopefully keep me focused on it a bit. Numbers are not enough - I need something to bribe myself with from time to time!

    What was the 21lbs one , Hypno, I couldn't remember what it was, and what's the target?

    21lbs is my target, because that will actually be 2 stone off since OH left (but 21 lbs since I started WW).

    The prize for that is to go on a "proper" shopping spree - to re-do my wardrobe properly. It gives me enough time to work out what I need to form a workable capsule wardrobe, and also enough time to save up for said spending!!!

    1 stone so far is brilliant, it must be helping your BMI, and you must notice the difference too. Looking forward to seeing your ideas for the capsule wardrobe basics.

    Currently got to try my jeans through a hot wash here, to try to make them fit enough to last till I get home. Definitely got to go lingerie shopping too, as some bits aren't fitting either. You should put lingerie on your list for the new slimmer you capsule wardrobe.

    Oh dear, I don't normally like clothes shopping etc., but it seems different when it's part of the slimmer/feel good new you idea. But got to go through what I've got when I get back and work out the priority gaps.

    P.S. Enjoy the skiing, hope it goes better this week :)
