Like a lot of people, I have gained a significant amount of weight. Ok, no biggie, I don’t like gaining weight but I don’t dislike the way I look either and don’t view myself negatively because of the weight gain. Spent £500-ish updating my entire wardrobe (including underwear) about 2 months ago. Cue to now, I’ve gained even more weight and don’t even fit into my new updated wardrobe. And I’m pissed off. I’m pissed off that it’s 30 degrees today and I either wear clothes that cut into my stomach and are too tight, or I wear my boyfriends joggers which, whilst comfortable, are too hot. Im pissed that my bras make me feel like I can’t breathe now. I’m pissed off that I spent £500 on a new wardrobe that made me feel good, only to not fit into it 2 months later. I’m not made of money, I can’t afford to spend another £500 on a new wardrobe. Complained about it on insta, only to get a ton of comments about internalised fatphobia, and it’s like NO! I don’t care that I gained weight, I don’t view myself as less of a person or feel like I don’t matter. I don’t think losing weight will make me any happier (well it will, but only because I will fit back into the clothes I just bought lol, not because I think losing weight gives me more self worth). I care that I spent a lot of money on clothes only to not fit into them and people are acting like I hate myself for it. I don’t think what I’m feeling is internalised fatphobia
