Buy New Clothes

Hey! Why don’t you buy new clothes?
Because my weight has given me woes.
I am big and sad
trying on makes me mad
As another woman with weight gain knows

I suppose so. I just wear the old stuff until it falls off my body. Then, I go to Goodwill! Everyone's two sizes bigger in there.

I have had two doctors appointments this week - weighed 2 pounds less today than Monday, so that is a win.
