The Great American Apparel Diet
no buying for one year

Bernadette

Bernadette Gillick, Seattle, 40. Bernadette read the article about TGAAD in the Seattle Times and started that day (that was way back in October). Now she realizes that it would be more fun to be part of the team! Bernadette is a medical professional recently turned PhD graduate student with no good reason to be buying anything new right now- especially clothes! “Thanks for starting this idea - it will be much easier to maintain the diet with others across the nation,” she says. “Now that I've returned to school, I want to be able to use the clothes I have, know what clothes I actually have in my closet, and get rid of the clothes I don't wear.”
