"I realized today you and I have opposite approaches to overeating: you put on clothing that works around* the offending body part. I put on clothing that I fit into ten pounds ago in order to remind myself to not eat everything in sight. BUT there is strategy involved: jeans where the waistband is so tight that I’m desperately uncomfortable and in a little pain, but a big sweater over it so as not to offend anyone.
It’s like a hair shirt in service of vanity instead of divinity."
*... that is to say that I'm currently wearing the hell out of my loose shift dresses and the two pairs of pants that button.
