How do I restock and buy new clothes on a limited budget?
This is a difficult issue for many of us! We have found that we have to prioritize our spending and realize that keeping our kitchen stocked with all kinds of foods we love and having a closet with clothes we love are crucial to our progress with this approach. We may have to let go of other things for a while until we can build up our wardrobe. We can also start to purchase just a few essential clothing items that we really love and that fit us well and then build from there. It is not necessary to purchase an entire wardrobe at once. A few clothes hanging in our closets that fit OUR bodies would be much better than a closet full of clothes that don’t fit!! Something else that helps is to realize that stocking up is good self-caretaking. If we had a child that needed to have lots of food around due to a medical condition, we wouldn’t hesitate to find a way to fulfill that need! We need to do the same for ourselves.
