Default Went shoppnig for clothes lastnight...
And walk right to the "Big Men's" Section like I have always done. And what do you know... Everything there was too big !!!

I had to go to the regular sized mens section. Took me a while to even find it.

I have gone from 50" waist to current 40".

Talk about a mental lift !

Congrats!

I've done the same thing. Having worn my pants on my hips all my life, I've only gone from a 42 to a 38, but that's been enough to take me out of the 'Big & Tall' section and into the normal one.

Keep it up man, GJ, that must be a great feeling to have that happen.

I never measured myself, but I knew my pants were not fitting anymore and my belts weren't small enough anymore, so I bought some new pants. I went from a 38 inch waist to a 32, which is still loose. A 30 definately would not fit me though. Too bad us men aren't pampered when it comes to clothes like those lucky women who get half-sizes

Even MEN can enjoy clothes shopping!

As long as they are shopping for them...

Actually, I like to tease, but both my husband and my brother like a certain amount of looking at pictures and making comments. But as for wandering around the ladies section while I try stuff on...that's too much.
