I’ve gained enough weight in the past few years that looking in my closet is mostly an exercise in depression and a depressing reminder to exercise.
So at this point, I’d happily return about 75% of my closet. Pre-COVID, 0%.
I’m of the mindset that with enough variety and accessories, any piece of properly-fitted clothing can work with any outfit, and I used to put that philosophy into practice regularly. I may not have looked fashionable, but I looked good trying.

Not sure if this is inviting advice.
Here is my advice: weight is a function of net calories being positive or negative. Therefore some tricks to make it easier to no longer have to outrun your fork:
- try fasting 24 hours of all calories then cutting all salt, oil, and sugar ever after (the fasting is so you don’t have cravings). There are a few recipe books out there that cater to vegetarian people with no SOS.
- try intermittent fasting. Not starting a day with food such that you don’t eat until 18 hours since last meal can shrink your stomach on the daily.
- walking is a valid form of exercise. A 15 minute walk is enough for many people.
