This is something that is really really fun to do and we used to do it all the time!!!  "Just" for Fun!  We would use this shopping time as a motivational tool to stay on our diet and to reach our goal.  The object of the shopping is to find an outfit that you would love to buy.  I’m talking about the outfit to outdo any other outfit you ever had before!  We would go to all of our favorite shopping places and we would try on all kinds of clothes.  This would serve two purposes.  1.  It would make us look at ourselves in the mirror.  We could no longer do avoidance behavior.  2.  It would give us motivation to lose that next 5 or 10 pounds.  One very important thing to keep up when dieting is your motivation.  You must supply it "food" all the time!
