I have gained weight.

For those of you playing the home game, this is a good thing for me (up to a point, obviously). (I need to get more exercise, but that's independent of this.) However, it means that all of my pants are fitting a little bit more.... snugly. Which means that when time-of-the-month water retention hits, my pants don't fit anymore.

Hello, sweats and drawstring skirts!

(I need to go shopping, but haaaaaaaaate. Also, I'm a bit tight on money, what with December Expenditures....)

Congratulations!

Thrift stores are your friend! You can afford everything, and if your weight changes again, it's no big deal.

Or you can hold a clothing exchange for all your friends. Give away stuff you don't want anymore and hopefully gain some clothing that fits. Fun fun fun!

I lost weight recently *just* because I didn't want to go pants shopping.

Then I went pants shopping anyway. Oh well.

I just got a few pairs of these:

(Just the basic OXC pants.)

And they are the most comfortable pants I've ever worn. Amazing!

Too bad you are in Washington, I love shopping (I consider it the ultimate game of hide and seek, where I hone my already extremely pointy run-and-find-out skills) and would happily take you. I am very good at it, and most people are, usually, quite happy with what I find for them. Sigh. Thrift stores just aren't what they use to be (at least in this area). I went rummaging last night and found nothing. le sigh. Though, you probably would do pretty well at thrift stores because you are le petite. I doubt you will be reading this any time soon since you are a bit busy (and most likely a bit chilly) at the moment. Have a happy new year.
