My skirt is too tight.

Oh fuck! I forgot to stop eating all the food. My biggest sized skirt, that should be nicely loose around my middle, is so tight I’ve had to unbutton it to sit down. Also I’ve got to wear a swimming costume in two weeks time. Is it possible to correct this with zero will power or effort?

I'd get a new skirt just in case x

Are you me? I've just worn a skirt today that was tight and uncomfortable. It used to be so big in me!😭 I'm now calorie counting to get back to it being lose. Following any regime where you're having less calories/move more should definitely make you feel more comfortable in a swimsuit, especially if you avoid bloating foods for a couple days.

Get ones which stretch!

I've started drinking coffee again as I keep forgetting to drink water and stop buying my frozen foods (chips, sausages, cheesecake). Hopefully I'll notice a difference in a few weeks!

Buy a new skirt op. There's no other way around it!

I always think skirts are the most forgiving when you put a few pounds on. More forgiving than trousers at least because there is room for the bulge to go up or down.

True although you can get stretchy trousers now more common.

I'm thinking tubs of cooked potatoes with mayo (with cucumber or tomatoe or tuna) to take to work. Trial run today. Hoping its ok dietwise. Seems to fill me up.

Seemed to do the trick. Time will tell!
