Incentives....

I am now moving into week four!

Who would have thought I would have made it this far? Certainly not me!

I am now 16lbs lighter and have lost a grand total of 16cms....I am just teetering above 13 stone, and hoping that this week will take me down to 12 stone something.

Thinking about weight loss has got me looking at body image and fashion. I find myself generally wearing the same items day in and day out, and my wardrobe is far less inspiring than most, with the main colour combinations being black, grey and dark blue! I class these as my 'safe' colours and the colours that some class as 'unseen' colours.

So as a result of this I have done a wardrobe cull, items have been placed into piles of:
1. Clothes I wear
2. Clothes I haven't worn in over a year
3. Special occassion clothes

All of the clothes I have not worn in over a year are going to be disposed of, there is no need to keep them.

As an incentive for weight loss, along with my target I have given myself a focus of a shopping treat. My friend, and fellow blogger Karen 'Mission; Style' has accepted my call for help, and has agreed to come with me when I hit target. I believe strongly in creating incentives for hard work, and dieting is 'hard work'. So if you are setting yourself a target for loss, don't forget to set your incentive too.

Good luck to anyone who is joining me on this journey, I hope the scales are kind to you.
