Default Shopping

Being your typical male, I have to say that I don't particularly care for shopping, especially for clothes. However, I have to say that after being on this WOE for close to 10 months, I finally ventured out to buy some new clothes. My old clothes have just become too unwearable, and even the tighest fitting belt can barely hold my jeans from dropping to my ankles (too many close calls!)

It felt pretty good to go in and look at clothes in the regular section, instead of the larger section. Although I wouldn't venture as far as saying that I enjoyed my shopping spree, it was a lot less painful as before I started lowcarbing.

Yeah, I guess men aren't into shopping for clothes like us women. But like you said, nice to be in the regular section instead of the larger sizes Good for you, great feeling no matter what sex we are
