Losing weight is generally considered a good thing. Lose a couple pounds and people start complimenting you, asking how you did it, saying you look great, that kind of fun stuff. Having lost several pounds recently, I have noticed that everyone is generally complimentary when they see you are slightly slimmer than you used to be.

I am not trying to brag, it鈥檚 just how things work.

However, I don鈥檛 like losing weight. I don鈥檛 like gaining it either, for the exact same reason. In an ideal world, I would stay exactly 203 lbs. until the day I die.

Before this year, I had been roughly the same weight for a fairly long time, but more crucially, I had been the exact same clothing size for even longer. This is why I don鈥檛 like losing weight, because changing size is terrible.

My process of clothes shopping is simple. Since I know my size, I go into the store, buy various things that are in my size, and then go home. Unless the labels are wrong, it means I can buy clothing with minimal fuss. Everything basically fits, everything is comfortable, and I don鈥檛 have to waste my time going into changing rooms. Because of this, I can buy all the clothes I need for a season in about 15 minutes.

Losing weight, however, throws a wrench in those plans. Now I don鈥檛 know my size. Stuff that used to fit comfortably is now loose and weird. It means all of my old clothes don鈥檛 work as well and I should theoretically buy new ones, even though my old clothes are all perfectly fine so I鈥檓 not going to. That鈥檚 right, going baggy is my new style, because if this shirt is still in one piece it鈥檚 still worth wearing.

Gaining weight is the same problem, of course. Everything feels tighter and my size becomes a mystery again. This is equally bad.

There are bound to be health benefits from carrying less weight around. I鈥檓 sure that, medically, eating healthier and becoming slimmer is the ideal scenario. But if that means I have to change my clothing size, I鈥檓 not sure I want to deal with those pesky health benefits. I do find myself wondering just what unhealthy alternatives I should reintroduce into my diet to just nudge me back to the weight I was, so I don鈥檛 have to actually put thought into clothes shopping.

Some people will think I am insane. Maybe they like buying clothes, maybe they like being healthy. Personally, I would hate it if I had to actually find a new size and re-purchase my entire wardrobe.

So, unlike a lot of people, the ones who sign up for diet classes and respond positively to people noticing their new figure, I鈥檓 sitting here wondering what I can do to ensure that I don鈥檛 drop too many pounds, to make sure I don鈥檛 have to suffer a fate worse than death, having to actually spend time trying on a shirt.聽
