just a little thing i noticed
i have often read on here that when you go through a period of no loss that you can still lose inches , being a man i havnt rearllyt noticed this untill .........
christmass i tried on a suit and needed 30 inch waist 46 inch chest any way went back the other day (havnt changed weight in three months) and needed 32 inch waist but a 42 inch chest so 4 inches of my chest, im thinking how long all theese redistributing of inches will go on for as im fed up of spending money on clothes just to be no good.
i was told by doctore that your skin can carry on repairing it self for up to 2 years maybe thats when it will all stop
any way good luck all

I went from a 46" waist to a 30", then back up to a 32". Your body is so excited about being able to set itself up the way it wants, it'll be moving the furniture around for some time. You're closing in on it, but it may not be satisfied yet, so don't invest too heavily for a little while. I forget how long it took me to stabilize, but however long it was, it's worth it!!

3 words: second hand shop.
lol you can find some good stuff in there, esp mens things as men ususally dont go in there. Have a look, you might be surprised what you find, esp with the more...expensive ones, they usually stock cast offs from the more wealthy,which may have been worn a time or 2..  | |

Good job, congrats!!! Yep, thrift shops and second hand stores are your friends during this time. Heck, when you don't have any more use for your new duds, you can go back to them, and *exchange* for something that fits | |

Good to see you back. I certainly hope that is true about the skin repairing for a long time. But Iguess if you think about it - the skin has been healing all along...... hummmmm.
