A Tip To Stay SI-Free

Post by jaded melody » Sat Sep 04, 2004 10:15 am

Hey everybody!
Just wanted to add in this little Stay-SI-Free trick i learnt. The best way to do it is to make a big deal of EVERY DAY that you make it. So what I did was go out and put lots of thin bracelets, and some really pretty ones and i put on a new thin one every day im SIF, then when i make it a week/2 weeks/a month (depends) Im allowed to wear one of the really nice ones that I love, and then if i SI, i have to take them all off and start again. But i love the bracelets and dont want to start again so im less likely to do it.

Anyhoo, just a thought.
