The Great American Apparel Diet
no buying for one year

Kerry

Kerry Harvey, Crystal Beach, FL, 42 – Horticulturalist, Landscape Designer. Originally from Australia, Kerry moved to the US from Australia in 1996. When she is not busy planning a garden or playing in the dirt she is busy walking her dogs or painting or redesigning something that needs a new use or a new life. When Kerry moved to the U.S. fourteen years ago she had two suitcases and was several sizes smaller than she is now. "My size has been up and down and all over the map in those dozen or so years. I love clothes but have way too many in every size imaginable, says Kerry. "My plan for the diet is to shed both clothing and weight. I have some great things in all different sizes so it will be a journey and I’m sure entertaining for me along the way to rid myself of those items that I no longer wear.” Kerry plans on donating her larger sizes as she sheds the layers. “I have a ridiculous number of shoes and hope to be able to pare them down to a more manageable and reasonable size collection. So for me it’s not just about not buying more, it’s also about getting rid of all the clutter, in so many ways.”
