weight lossWhen I went vegan almost a year ago, I lost about 30 lbs fairly rapidly over the course of a month. It made a large part of my wardrobe unwearable. I didn't have a lot of money so I was only able to replace a portion of it using thrift stores. Then about 3 months ago, I started Adderall for ADHD. I lost another 10 lbs and now some of those replacement clothes are getting loose and baggy too, including a new bra that's now too loose in the band. And I have even less money than I did before and I'm at a loss at what to do. I've tried but putting the weight back on but I can't eat enough to the calories to do that. I have a sewing kit but not like a machine or anything and trying to adjust clothes seems like a nightmare. I also don't have a ton of experience so it'd be slow and I'd probably fuck it up too.

I don't regret going vegan or starting medication but I wish I didn't lose the weight. I miss the roundness in my face lea-sad

Kind of makes me feel like Iโ€™d be better off not buying new clothes until I finish weight loss/cycling.

You can temporarily adjust clothes with safety pins. If a shirt is too big for example, flip it inside out, put it on, and pin it so that it fits you. Then flip it back and the safety pins shouldn't show through. There are a lot of other safety pin hacks, too. Don't know if there's anything I can do about a bra, though.

I hope you're able to get cute flattering clothes again sometime.

Good tip! I need to try that. And yeah I think the bra is a lost cause sadly.

I hope you're able to get cute flattering clothes again sometime.

Thanks, I hope so too
