Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / February 2004New Pants - Old Pants
It is a good thing I use suspenders, because my pants were falling off. Today, I dug into my old clothes box and found a pair of barely used pants from years ago, that now fit. I wrapped a steel tapemeasure from my toolbox around my waist and discovered that I have lost about 8 inches in circumference. I also drilled a new hole in my belt about 3 inches from the tightest notch. There is still a long way to go, but I'm feeling very confident today.

I've been experiencing the slipping jeans syndrome too. Actually bought a new belt (not leather, so no holes to drill) to hold them up better. My newest pair of 52 jeans are big enough to stick my arm down while my oldest and most shrunk 52s are all comfortable with some room in them. :-) Went to a wake and had to dress up and found a shirt that was getting tight in the neck and middle easily fit again. Glad I saved those three shopping bags of clothes that don't fit anymore--I may actually wear them again too.

I saved all my clothes that didn't fit as I gained, and have them sorted by size in plastic storage bins. So as I'm losing nowit's like having a new wardrobe. I simply break out the old clothes, and give the current ones away :) SignaturePeter website: http://users.thelink.net/marengo |
