I'm Meredith, and I realized I might have a problem when not going to the mall when I had planned to made me antsy. How dare my husband demand my time? I was completely shamed when I realized. I may not buy anything, but I surely love to go and look. I actually find the entire process of finding clothes that fit (particularly pants) so maddening that the whole shopping experience depresses me. But when I do find something, it's like a high--and it motivates me to keep looking. I've actually been on a clothing budget for a while, and it's worked well for me, but the urge to spend is what prompted me to join the diet. I'm hoping that this break from consumerism will free up some of my precious time! I'm married, no kids (yet) and two dogs. I have a career in the insurance industry that on most days I love but I'd like to find time in my life to do things that are more productive than shopping, and more fun. I'm also hoping to eventually shift my shopping from "always new" to "almost always used" but that's another story. I won't have to worry about that until September 2011--because I won't be shopping at all for clothes, shoes or accessories. Frankly, I have plenty of all three. I'd like to put makeup in that pile but a girl can only do so much at one time!
