Belt Tightening

I paused for the fifteen time that hour to pull up my pants. She couldn't help but notice.


"You ok?"


I sighed.


"I've lost weight recently, and now my pants keep falling down."


"Oh, congratulations!"


"It's not a positive, I'm sick of having to yank on these things!"


She seemed shocked.


"But think of all the health benefits you have!"


"I think of them maybe once an hour. I'm pulling up my pants once a minute. No contest."


"So buy new pants!"


"I can't, I've spent all my money on all the fresh food needed to lose the damn weight!"
