Gaining Weight

I've just begun
auditing my wardrobe.
So many items
no longer fit me.
At first
I reacted
in a negtive way
and then I stopped those thoughts
and began to comprehend
the reasons why
this was happening.

Three years ago
after Shaya died
I stopped eating
as much as I
usually do.

I lost a lot of weight
and tossed
many items
from my wardrobe.
I bought new items
in a smaller size.
Some people
who knew me
from many years ago
did not recognize me.

However
three years later
after some therapy,
sleeping better
and just feeling better,
those clothes no longer fit me.

I've gained weight.
Not that much,
just around the hips
what Buba Sarah called
my Marilyn Monroe hips.

I've even found
that food is tasting
much better.
I wrote about this
after the hypnotherapy session
in November 2024.

Lately
I've increased
the range of my food choices.
I've removed
not only
the clothes that no longer fit
but also my bad old ways.
They're gone.

I made a choice
of different clothes,
brightly coloured,
and more comfortable in fit,
for who I am right now.

So yes,
I did regain the weight
I lost,
but
I also changed the way
I was thinking.

I have a
sunny disposition
and a positive attitude
and I'm chalking up
many many wins.
II'm happy.
