Put em in your colset or under your bed. Also, if some of the stuff you end up getting rid of is in good shape, don't trash it. Give it to Goodwill or Salvation Army and it might end up helping someone else.Regarding the stuffed animals: Keep the 3 or 4 that were your favorites. I mean they are part of your childhood, so it's natural to want to hang on to them .even if they are in a box in the attic. As for the rest of them, clean em up and give them to charity. If you're having a hard time giving them away, just think about how happy it might make some small child who's less fortunate.

They may taste excellent, but ready-made foods possess very little nutritional value, making you try to eat more only to have enough energy to get through the day. When you are constantly taking in these foods, changing to whole grains and other complex carbohydrates will help you to have more energy while taking in less. Interesting blog post.
