Tenting on the Old Campground

jenbusick

I have a t-shirt that is 16 years old (favorite team championship shirt, so it has a date printed right on it). It has always been kind of "tight." When I pull it down over my midsection, it gets snug and if I pull it down past my hips, it fits like sausage casing.

A couple of nights ago I put that shirt on to work out in, and it fell straight down over my hips without stopping, and just hung there. I seriously felt like I was wearing a tent. And I was shocked, because that particular shirt was always one that I felt would fit BETTER if I could lose some weight! I felt like I was lost in it!

I'm not a measurement-taker, and now I regret it because I would love to know what my hips WERE compared to what they are now. It must be a big difference!

Good for you. That is always a good feeling followed by a WOW! Love the comment about the sausage casing. Good luck

start taking your measurement now. it's never too late. i've only lost 11 lbs so far but i've lost 7 inches in my hips, 2.5 in on my waist, etc, etc, etc,

the tape measure is your friend.

Ha! ALL my shirts fit like that!

If it is really a favorite, you can take it in a little, skinny-mini. ;p

Yay you!

Just wait until the day when you pull one on and think "Wow! I have so much ROOM in here! And I never realized this shirt was so LONG!" It's a great moment!
