added new punch(es) to my belt

Okay, so at first it was kind of cool to feel my pants falling down all the time. Then, after the novelty wore off, it was starting to be just an annoyance. So over the weekend I (finally) got around to buying some new pants and shorts.

With the new size pants, my favorite leather belt which I wear every day was too loose. Today at work I borrowed a leather punch and added a new hole. Tried it on, and it was STILL too loose. So I added another.

In hindsight, I guess taking 1.5" off my belt makes sense for new pants that are 2" smaller. But at the time it was a real surprise. Belt length isn't just a number, its a change you can see before your eyes.

I guess I'll have another punch or two to make as I get down to my target weight. I hope I can keep using the same belt. Besides having some sentimental value, it has a nice visible history of my weight loss !

Thanks to MFP people for making such a great way to succeed in weight loss !
