Thanks for all of the votes on our last poll, it looks like the majority of TGAAD Dieters are redistributing funds they used to spend on clothing to their (now growing) savings accounts! Coming in second to savings accounts was paying off credit cards (17votes) it’s awesome to see that the diet is positively affecting your bank accounts!
And now I’d like to address a topic of importance to the women of TGAAD…that topic is bras.
Now, a majority of members are women and we know that it’s a challenge in itself to not purchase clothing, and make outfits work that haven’t been worn in years. So as you struggle with wearing old sweaters and layering all of the items which you do already own, take a moment to think about the items that are going on underneath all of that winter layering. An ill fitting bra can make an old top look more worn than what it actually is, so remember new bras are allowed (thank goodness!) and wearing a properly fitting one can make an old shirt look a lot newer than it is! One of our old dieters and a good friend to us at The Great American Apparel Diet, Rebecca Kotch, is doing some research on where we buy the undergarments we put on before we get dressed for the day or go out for the night. We love hearing your responses to all of the polls and are really excited for this new poll. Rebecca is hoping you can give some insight into how you purchase your often neglected (in our posts) but essential wardrobe items! We do have one question from the poll up on our site, but if you could vote through the link below, the information would be greatly appreciated! http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/6VB8JGX
