Not Relaxed?
So when I started this, I had a size 46 waist for pants and a 54 chest for jackets and a 19 1/2" neck for shirts. My 6 months will be in about 9 days and I have had to buy clothes on multiple occasions. Today I bought two pairs of dress pants for work, 36" waist. I also got a great deal on some Greg Norman moisture wicking golf shirts, 5 for $100 which is incredible.....more incredibly I bought size Medium! Never would I have ever dreamt of that....I was pushing into 3XL one short year ago. Oh and I bought some Wrangler jeans...waist size 36" Relaxed fit....got them home and just exchanged them Regular fit. It is amazing how in my head I'm still big but I'm not. Last week my wife bought me one of those 1/4 zip form fitting Under Armor pull overs. I put it on and I'm like, I can't wear this, I'm too fat...she took a picture and showed me and I have to admit, I'm not too fat! Woohoo!!
Congratulations on your amazing weight loss in such a short time, and for the great NSV's!

How great! I've had a similar experience - I buy clothes that are more fitted now because, well, I can! It's neat :)
And I love Under Armour gear.
