There are other benefits to losing weight that I haven't mentioned too much yet. One of which I've really started enjoying this week is a new wardrobe. Now, let me say that this new wardrobe has cost me nothing. I've haven't forked out a dime for any new clothes. They were all right there in my closet. In fact, I'm wearing a pair of black dress pants today that I have probably worn 3 or 4 times. They were tight when they were given to me and for the first time I can actually wear them. They look like they are brand new. I also wore a pair of khaki's I found in my closet yesterday that I haven't worn in a really long time. I thought maybe they had a hole in them or something. Nope, they just didn't fit me anymore so I stopped wearing them.
All those clothes that I got and never could wear much I can now wear again. It's really nice because I don't feel like I'm rotating the same few shirts and pants week in and week out. There used to be only 4 or 5 shirts I could wear and feel comfortable in before because I was so big. Now I can wear just about anything.
However, don't worry. I'm not going to be one of "those" guys. You know, the ones who look like they tried to squeeze into their son's shirts. Besides, I'm not that far along yet. I'm at 222 and still losing. It's slowed down a bit the past couple of weeks due to my being sick and not eating very good. I'm back on track now and should be hitting below 220 next week for the first time in years!!
