Non-scale victory thread:

I buy dress shirts from a company in London. They are the best looking, best cut shirts I've ever bought (yes, I wear a suit and tie to work four days of the week). The only issue I've had with them is the neck size (17 1/2 is the largest) has always been, at best, snug. And I usually leave the top button, un-buttoned and tie my tie over it.

Today, I was able to button the top button comfortably. This is the first time I've ever been able to do this with these shirts.

Now, if I could just get my stomach to do the same...

    Love it! One of my favorite NSVs - the shirt collars getting looser and SO MUCH more comfortable.

    I have some XL T-shirts that I wasn't wearing because they were uncomfortably tight. Now, I put them on and they are nice and loose.

    Plus, I "handed down" all my 42-waist pants to my son (since my size-40's are now loose and comfy).

    Congratulations! It made me so happy when I could get back into a relatively normal collar size! That and wearing slim cut shirts. Made me feel like a new person.

    Congratulations!!! These clothing victories can be just as amazing for us as men as for our lady friends! You should be very proud of yourself!

    I'm having an NSV myself... My MOOBS (Man-Boobs) are gone. I didn't have big moobs, but what I had would tend to jiggle a bit during jogging. I've been doing my walks and some upper body workouts with dumbbells of late and last night at the end of my 5 mile walk, I decided to jog a 1/4 mile. No bounce!

    RIP streittk's moobs. I'm sure you won't be missed.

    Congrats!
