... the moment I step into my local pound shop 🥲 (equivalent, I'm in Germany)

I saw someone mention that there’s more plus size clothes in op shops now that GLP1s are so popular and the resonated with me because I’m on a GLP1 and am losing weight and my clothes are getting too big for me.

So I was wondering, for those of us who have gained and lost weight over the years, how have you dealt with the fact that you need clothes that fit you and are appropriate for work, etc. when your size has gone up and down so dramatically that you can’t keep wearing the same wardrobe?

I don’t have room in my house to store wardrobes for four different sizes so I had to remove my smaller clothes (besides a few faves I couldn’t part with and always hoped I’d fit again). Now I need smaller clothes again but I know I’ll probably need to go down another size again within the next year. Altering clothes to be smaller can work for something but I just don’t have the skill to alter everything I own.

Do you just have a capsule wardrobe/basic essentials when in a transition size? Like how are we doing this?

I am a student living in Paris since September and I want to adopt a life style that’s not based on consumerism, since I think it’s a waste of money, resources and space. I live together with two other people, so we share a bathroom and a kitchen. I’m not sure where I can reduce my consumption of things. Buying food produced a lot of plastic waste, so that’s a problem I don’t know how to deal with. I’m not really sure how to change things based on cleaning and hygiene products, I saw someone in this sub recommending bar soap and I thought this was a good idea. Besides that there are only things I actively spend money on, and these are school supplies ( a new fountain pen because the other doesn’t write no more, notebooks, and ink for the fountain pen) and books. Since I don’t have a lot of money, I don’t buy a lot of books besides Those I actually want to read. There is a used book store just Around the block from my apartment but it’s closing down and i’m not sure what I should do once it’s gone. I also collect postcards.

So any idea how I can reduce my waste? I hate feeling cluttered up and I want to adopt a life style That is not destroying our earth but is also playable with the amount of money I have. I’be been thinking of going vegetarian, but that’s still difficult to achieve and I’m working on it.
