My affair with Christopher Banks has got to end!

OMG...I'm out of control. I spent all day there yesterday and left the store $600 poorer. My husband actually encourages this affair! I text messaged him after I spent all of that money and he said "oh, that's good honey". He's a nut. I plan on taking a few of the things back today to minimize the damage. I don't really need everything that I got--and besides I'm hoping that all that stuff is too big to wear next month!! How crazy is that?

You sound so much like me, I have done this in the past. So far in this journey I have maintained control but I am almost at a size where I can buy somethings I will probably be able to wear through too my goal weight (i.e.. stretchy materials). I am about to take a hugh Coldwater Creek shopping spree.... Have fun and enjoy. That is so wonderful to have a husband that supprts you, I have pretty much the same in my marital relationship. The only problem is you really need someone with control over both. I try to take this role with myself and sometimes him but we are both suckers when it comes to our son.....

Oh, I love Coldwater Creek too! Christopher Banks reminds me of Coldwater Creek. I thought I was showing great resolve by taking some of the items back. I'm a vibrant color person and I ended up with some brown and beige. So I took the bland colors back but I ended up buying more on this second trip than I returned! Enough is enough--no more shopping for me for awhile.

I too have a clothes shopping addiction and it's got to stop! I will not buy anything that's more than $15....I shop at TJ Maxx and Marshalls so it isn't too hard in there to keep to my budget. I even hit a huge sale at JC Penney's and bought an $80 black ****tail dress for $16! Since we are eating less I guess we can spend the extra $$$ on clothes!
