Funny, should-have-happened awhile ago, WOW moment
Warning - may have gender-sensitive TMI
As I was losing weight I got smaller and smaller pants, shirts, even bras, to fit my shrinking frame, but for some reason it never occured to me that I might need to get new panties (well, that's not totally true, I started all this wearing size 10 underwear, then about a year out I switched to size 8 and have been wearing that size ever since). Finally, now that I am almost 3 years out and down 160+ pounds, I have been getting fed up with my panties and their refusal to stay put. I was venting this frustration to my sister, who asked what size underwear I was wearing, and so I told her, and then she laughed at me and insisted I go get new, smaller panties. I tried size 7's and they were still baggy, then size 6's and still baggy....I wear I size 5 now. Amazing. For almost 2 years I have been wearing underwear that is 3 sizes two big. So in light of this development I went on a panty-shopping-spree getting all kinds of cute things
I have never had so many cute pairs of under-things before. it is a wonderful life

Good for you Amy!
I know how you feel... I had the 'panty' conversation with people on another board.... lol... because I just recently started feeling like I am always losing my pants, lol. Time for some new ones.

Well I had this experience too. I litterally have giant boxers that have actually completely fallen off, I have started to wear size small boxer briefs, because us guys like a little bit of air, but a little bit of support too!
As to why I held on so long (I actually still have a few of those giant boxers in my roation!): Jerry Seinfeld summed it up best in a monologue during the espisode of his show where George sells all of his dad's clothes to a vintage clothing store (he tries to tell the clerk his dad had passed away):
"...men wear their underwear until it absolutely disintegrates. Men hang on to underwear until, until each individual underwear molecule is so strained it can barely retain the properties of a solid. It actually becomes underwear vapor. W-we don't even throw it out, we just open a window and it goes out like dandelion spoors. That's how men throw out underwear we just go (blows on the mic) and it's gone that it is just it..."
...one of those "it's so funny 'cuz it's so true" kind of things!
