Your pajamas would have you believe that you have not gained weight.
Should your going out in public clothes be your pajamas, you may ignore this advisory!

(9,897 posts)It was always unnecessary vanity and influence based consumption to begin with, and life is too short to wear uncomfortable or restrictive clothing just because convention dictated it pre-pandemic.
I am seriously considering a full switch to the flowing robes favored by Arab sheiks personally...or anything less that I can get away with in this sweltering heat and humidity...

(25,865 posts)I finally, after several decades, have a BMI in the normal range.
I've had two buy new clothes two different times as I've lost weight. And I've already donated all the old, now too large clothes.

(25,865 posts)I'm feeling quite good about it.
It helps that I weigh myself every single day, something I've actually done for years now. I'm not even entirely sure what changed, other than I was able to cut way back on how much I ate.
