When you are losing weight, you naturally want to make the most of your current wardrobe before putting your hand in your pocket to buy more. However, if you are planning on dropping more than one dress size, then you may need a transition wardrobe to see you through.

Aside from borrowing from your besties (which is a fabulous idea by the way!), here are some cost saving tips that you can apply to your wardrobe, so you feel great, look fantastic and save your hard-earned dollars to boost your wardrobe when you finally reach your goal weight.

Life can get busy sometimes and much too often, we put ourselves last instead of first.

While effects of menopause can be sudden, the symptoms in andropause are more gradual, and a lot less noticeable.

Whether you aim to walk 10,000 steps per day, or you just want to increase that step count in general, there is really no time like the present.
