i know i just posted an entry saying that my life has been taken over; so how in the world do i have the time to do a functional analysis of my wardrobe? well, when you are still 10 lbs over your pre-pregnancy weight and feel dejected every time you walk into your closet, it is time to take a hard look at what's hanging in there. my PM tendencies from MS days took over and i did a little functional analysis of my wardrobe, putting into categories the clothes i need for the various occassions in my life. in the process, i pulled out piles of stuff i have not used in a year or more and made a list of what i need to get. now, i can shop guilt-free knowing i will use what i get. i am also back into instituting my item-in, item-out rule so every time i get something, i need to take out something else. vamshi suggested i take it a step further and hang everything in my closet and then not allow any new hangers to come in. that way, when i buy something new, i have to take something out so i can hang what i just got. i think that's taking it too far. like, doing a functional analysis was not far enough :)!
ITs got nothing to do with your PM days at MS, you have always been like this, functional analysis of poems, shakspeare were ur forte! Remember I would borrow you notes on poems. No one else could "deserialize" them (if u will) like you did!
And hey we had babies, why did the other million people gain weight? I dont feel dejected anymore, just more defiant and possessive about my baby spoils! I look at the weight as large fond memories especially since I am in the 4th dimension now!
