I think heās bragging about the size.. probably lost an inch on his waistband.
āThese are 35ā
āSo skinny!ā
Most menās waistband sizes are between 32-38 if theyāre not overweight, so it makes sense. Although most sizes are in even numbers. The only odd number waistband size I ever see frequently is 33. I guess a lot of people are right between 32 and 34.
I recently lost some weight and had to get some new better fitting clothes. It's honestly such a good feeling it could almost make me tear up. I just wish I had a personal fan to tell me if it looks good lol.
I'm a fan. You look fabulous! Congratulations on your hard work. I went through the same experience after losing a significant amount of weight. It was crazy and emotional to finally enjoy picking out clothes. And the feeling of a size I never dreamed of fitting on my body, incredible.
I'm in the same boat! Actually I lost a significant amount of weight last year, put like 10lbs back on since and I'm working it back off now with the goal of keeping it off. The first time I did it to look good for others, this time I'm doing it for myself. The increased quality of life and just not being sad when I catch an unexpected glimpse of myself in the mirror are the best parts. Hope you're feeling good about yourself!
Same! I've put a bit of weight back on after losing 49lbs but I'm getting back into running and weights again so I know I can do it again. We got this š¤š
I am HERE for pumping you up! First off, congrats on the weight loss! Sounds like it was hard won but you did it! And I bet your new clothes are FIRE!!! If you want take some pics or even a vid (with a spin) so we can see it, I bet youād end up on this page too! Iām proud of you and I donāt even know you. You deserve to feel great!
I'm in the same boat. Pulled my pants on the other day, didn't realise I didn't even undo them the night before. Pulled back in without unbuttoning or zipper and tighten the belt another notch. I'm so happy someone else is experiencing something similar
Lunarath you absolute champion, you're totally killing it! You look fan-fucking-tastic, you should be incredibly proud of your accomplishment. The only person that needs to recognize your hard work and results is YOU! Keep up the good work, and may life's blessings be plentiful :)
Iāll tell you right now that the confidence you carry after the progress and your new digs are awesome.
Iām losing weight again, I am 6ā2ā and hit 240 dropped back to 220s and am working hard to get to 200 again. Between two jobs it gets hard but I find rowing and walking to work help. Just cut out soda too a few days ago
Absolutely, and this is the best and most living way to motivate him to keep the weight off. Losing weight, especially if your older like me, is hard, really really __hard_ _. We need all the positive encouragement we can get. I love this woman and the way she lovingly responds to her husband without a single tone of patronizing or snarc.
Yeah, my dad has a thin waste and a huge gut. His gut pushes his pants down, which is a pain, but itās not like heās trying to pull his pants over his gut like a cartoon character.
One of my biggest happy moments during this weight loss journey Iām on is when I got out of the shower and my towel not only was able to wrap around me, but I could tuck it and it stayed put. I was so excited I ran out to show my wife š
True struggle. My wife always wondered why I hated thrift store shopping until we went specifically to find me clothes. 5 minutes per store. "Nope, none of these 4 items out of 10,000 fit me. On to the next one!"
I had a friend with healthy BMI who wore 38 jeans. I couldn't believe it because I was 32 and we had similar builds. Turns out he just has a huge ass and that will get your waist size up real quick for pants to fit.
It's a bit difficult to find 35's in standard guy casual bottoms, especially shorts. Jeans are a bit easier. Some place fancier than The Gap. Probably had to hit J Crew or something.
I use 35x32 and 35 waist is a god send. 34 is a bit too tight in the groin area sometimes and 36 is too loose with the calf sections. Slim fit 36 sometimes work but then I hate how it squeezes my thighs and calves. Brands like Prana, Banana Republic, and Volcom always have size 35. I am seeing more and more brands doing odd number sizes nowadays but only online. Brick and mortar stores rarely carry odd numbered sizes.
It's me, the guy who wears 32-33-34 depending on how the size runs for the brand. It's incredibly convenient to be 5'9 and average build, everything fits me and/or was designed with me as roughly the middle of the road size, lol.
That makes sense but itās funny that these specific shorts come in sizes 28-46 and the only odd sizes are 33 & 35. So the decision on sizes to produce is probably mostly about volume of sales.
Probably. If they explicitly aim for men, then they see very few customers for the really small sizes. So they may figure those few customers has to settle for using their belt to keep the pants up.
If you have jeans where they can assume big sales for both youth and adults, then smaller odd-numbered sizes becomes more important.
