Another NYT quote:
Mr. Walsh says he started seeing the link between clutter and weight problems when readers of his first book on decluttering began telling him how they also had lost weight as a result of getting organized. Clutter and fat, he realized, are not so different.
“All of us deal constantly with the urge to consume more,’’ he writes. “We spend too much, we buy too much, and we eat too much. In the same way we surround ourselves with so much clutter, we overwhelm our bodies with caloric clutter consisting mainly of sugar and fat.”
Do you ever read FlyLady.Net? She does a lot of decluttering stuff and she started some kind of associated weightloss “thing”. I don’t use her much, because she’s way too reasonable for me (haha), but I do know that this has always been kind of true for me. Every time I’ve ever been able to make serious strides in my health, it’s always been precipitated by a pretty serious purge of my surroundings. Interesting stuff!
In other news….I can’t believe how fast your pregnancy is going! It’s so exciting.
Boys are very fun.
