The hazards of losing weight
It has just dawned on me (with the aid of a tape-measure) why I keep finding myself of late treading on the hems of garments I have been wearing for years without problem. It is not, as I had supposed, that my clothes are wearing out and stretching/drooping below their normal level; the problem is that I've lost weight, or, to be more precise, lost waistline -- and my high-riding waistbands are now trending towards hipster style!
I'd noticed my weight had dipped under eight stone again, but not that I'd lost a good inch off my circumference. Unfortunately when you're my size (5' 4") a little fat goes a long way....
I'm not sure I can bring myself to expand my stomach deliberately just so that my clothes fit, so any nip/tuck action might have to apply to the clothing.
