NSV None of my belts fit!

FrozenFlame22

I've only been at this for a little while, but I've already lost 18 lbs and a few inches off my hips and waist. I haven't bought any new clothes yet because I don't think I'll get smaller than one more size down so I wanted to wait and get some nice things. All my jeans are too big, even some that had been too small when I started losing weight. I only own one pair of shorts because I thought I was too fat for shorts. Today when I put them on, they fell off! I tried a belt, but they still were barely hanging on. I had to get one of my husband's old BDU web belts just to keep my shorts from falling off. I couldn't even get his belt around me at all a couple of months ago, and now I have about 6 inches extra length.

I'm in the same place. Unfortunately, ALL of my non-workout bottoms require a belt...which doesn't currently help the problem. Gotta punch some holes, I suppose.

Had to punch a hole this morning! Pants falling off and belt did not help!

YAY!!!! Awesome NSV! You're doing AWESOME! My previous belt just broke because I had punched holes in it and it split... so I had to go buy one. I actually got to go to a "normal" store instead of a plus size store and buy a size XL belt and it fit! I got one that has holes all the way around as part of the design so I won't have to buy a new belt until I I stop losing. I really REALLY needed the belt too since I'm currently a size 20-22 and most of my pants are size 28... actually what I need is some new pants but who has money for that?

I had to break down and buy a new belt myself this past weekend. Congrats on your amazing progress!

Congratulations! It is a great feeling!!! Had the same experience (A few times having gone from a 56 to a 38...) Keep up the good work!

Definitely in the same boat here. Add to get out the drill and put a new hole in my day-to-day belt. It just wasn't helping keep my pants on. I think it was a 48" max and I now have it holed for about 42". Crazy. Also, my workout shorts are getting to the point where the drawstring can't even pull tight enough to really secure them. I feel like if I run long enough, they're going to end up popping off, and nobody wants to see that..
