  • Hello,

    Well done on the eBay sales. It is great to get paid to declutter. I no longer have anything left worth selling but I am resolved to throw something away each day for the next two weeks. At leat then I achieve the decluttering effect.

    Hope you are enjoying the hols,

    Thanks Squirrel. I am enjoying the hols and the ebaying. So busy ebaying no time to post!

    I am so ashamed that I have collected so much junk and wasted so much on clothes that I will "slim into".

    I think we can all relate to clothes we will slim into

    I'm going to put mine in a box, write a date on the box and if I can't fit into them by the date, it can go to charity

    I used to be much bigger than I am now and clothes are the way of keeping an eye on weight creep. I got rid of everything from the big time, mostly on as I had lots of suits for work, apart from the jeans I wore to my first WW meeting. I have a few things that I need to get back into but they are achievable - as in I can get get them on and done up but they are not flattering. Everything else at both ends of the spectrum went.
