Thanks guys and another FART

First, I am sorry I didn't get to reply to you gents who wrote me congrats on the 100#s, I have been offline for the last 2 days and I am just now getting to read them. Thanks a lot!  Doug, I got your message and sent one back. The FART is that today for the first time since I can't remember when, I bought clothes in a "NORMAL" store!! My 48" pants were pretty loose so while I was in Sams club, I saw some jeans that were only $12, they had them in 44" so I bought them, shorts in the same size and a T shirt in XXL    .......AND THEY ALL FIT!!!! I am wearing them right now! Good by to the FAT GUY clothes store! The cold is nearly over and I am really fealing great! Thanks again for all the support that you guys give, it sure is welcome. Wayne

Awesome Cal.  Congrats!

wow what a wonderful day that will be!!!!! congrats!!!!keep the faith!!!! phil

Hey Wayne,

Thanks for the message. I'll be in touch. And big congrats on the latest FART. Isn't it great to say so long to the fat guy stores?

Wayne, Be careful.  Shopping for normal sized clothes on sales racks can become addicting… and fun. Congratulations!

Thanks guys, Yes, I am also using a belt that I made (because there were no quality belts to fit me in the stores, so I made it myself from a leather supple store) and I am just adding more holes to it. I only buy one pair of pants and a shirt or two as I will only be able to wear them for a month or two and there is no way to wear them out in that short of a time.  It sure is nice to be able to buy them when I need them at the local store rather than mail order or drop in at the fat guy store for 3X the price!

Wayne,  After WLS, there comes a day when you just have to get a new belt (actually several).  You can only punch so many new holes in an old belt (been there, done that).  The old belts will still hold your pants up; but having a belt that wraps half way around you waist just doesn’t look very good.   Buy a new belt!

Congradulations on the loss! Regular size clothes are so much cheaper than fat guy clothes. Dont go buying lots of clothes till your done droping the pounds. I wore my same fat guy pants just bought a leather belt and just kept punching holes in it. Guess Im a tight wad or just broke(I have three teenagers....lol) Once again congradulations. Have a great day, Derrick

Ain't it a GOOD FEELING !! Keep it up or down.

Keep it Up!!! Best Wishes- Dx
