Default Just drilled me a new belt hole!

Just wanted to crow a little -- got a new pair of jeans at Goodwill in a smaller size, and had to cut another inch off my belt and drill a new belt hole. Also, I was cleaning out my clothes drawers, and found I was able to put on a bicycle jersey that I hadn't worn since the mid-1980s!! Woo-Hoo!!!!

Congrats on your new hole! One of the goals I had when I started this was to start riding my road bike again. At 270lbs I knew that I'd get flats every ride. Now that I'm closing in on 220 I'm getting ready to start riding again. Tried on some of my old bib shorts and man are they a lot easier to get into now.

Drilling a new hole in your belt is like finding a $/£ 20 in an old shirt pocket, just befor throwing it out.

Hey hey!
I need to drill a new watchwand hole. But I kinda like the way the watch hangs on me like a bracelet.
Pants, now, there are dangers there!

Congrats on the belt hole! Friday I started using the last belt hole left on my old belt... when I started the diet I was on the last hole in the other direction. Isn't it great?
