my thoughts…exactly!

"WALA AKONG MASUOT!"

Do you ever find yourself standing in front of your closet, looking for an outfit and then realizing…"OMG,wala akong masuot!" ?

Most of my fashionista friends would exclaim this expression for different reasons. Far more different than mine. Their reason(s) would be that they want new clothes because their closet finds are a bit outdated…or because what’s left in their closet were all mismatched (you know, the type when you just used the only top that goes well with the pants you’re about to use…) or they just want new clothes PERIOD.

Mine would be…because nothing fits me right anymore. I mean, they still fit me but they are all too tight now. Why? Hello??? I gained 10 lbs.! Blame it on the hormone pills I’ve been taking since last year. Some peeps say I look better now because my butt is bigger and rounder but some would say that I look better less 10 lbs. for whatever reason. (Actually, I am just 5 lbs. overweight. At 5′6” I used to be 115 lbs. which is 5 lbs. underweight. The ideal weight for me is 120 lbs. So do the math)

The question now is…to buy or not to buy new clothes? Well, personally I’d rather not buy new "fat" clothes for two reasons. One, it is not practical. I don’t want to  buy new clothes just so that I have something to wear in the meantime. I mean, I don’t wanna think that I am no longer returning back to my old size, right? And two, having nothing to wear would actually inspire me…no, no, push me to lose the unwanted weight.

It’s a good thing my OB told me to stop taking the pills starting this August. Let’s just hope there is a positive outcome to that.
