Buying Clothes Two Sizes Up and Feeling Relief

I used to buy clothes hoping they would motivate me to lose weight. This time I bought them because I wanted to feel comfortable right now.

The radical act of comfort

Walking out of the store with pants that actually fit felt like a small act of kindness toward myself. I wasn't waiting for some future version of me to deserve comfort.

This body deserves clothes that fit it today

I'm done waiting to deserve basic physical comfort. This body is the one I have right now.
