I'm attending a wedding shortly, and as discussed in previous threads, I have had a lot of problems with my eating disorder and it's had a negative impact on my waistline. When it came to trying on my suit, I could fit in it... but I couldn't move in it!


Upon seeing me, my wife instantly asked if I had any other suits, to which I responded no. She then said "You'd better get in touch with the suit hire shop pretty quickly then!"


This hit me in so many ways.

1) I don't fit my ?400 Hugo Boss suit, which I do look rather dashing in.
2) It was a horrible slap in the face of how much i've let myself go in the past year.
3) I had to spend ?150 to hire a suit that only needed to have an extra inch all over to fit.

Worst of all though...

4) I have a perfect dress for a wedding in my wardrobe, it cost ?18 and still fits despite my weight gain.


Oh well. I've already lost 3kg of the 15kg I need to lose to get back to where I was. Give it 6 months of controlled eating and I will be where I need to be again.
