More Tomatoe Woes

My patio tomato is starting to look very very sad...there are 3 little tomatoes on it, but the plant itself is starting to turn yellow! Does it need a bigger container? Help!

Update: I bought a larger container - actually, a self-watering container - and some organic potting soil. The container is pretty nifty - it has a reservoir in the bottom which you fill with water, so the plant drinks from the bottom... Hopefully this does the trick, 'cause the poor little guy looks pretty bad... On the other hand, the tomatoes in my garden are just thriving so all is not lost if the patio plant doesn't make it. Funny - I bought the patio tomato because the garden plants were worrisome. Must've made them jealous...
