Air Force members are sized for their service dress in basic training, when they're at their fittest. For me, it has been 4 years since that day, and we are required to wear the service dress uniform every Monday. After getting out of shape, my skirt fit so tight, it would only button if I wore control top panty hose. That's not to say that it looked awesome, though. Even after all that, I refused to buy a new skirt. I was in denial. Now, after 1.5 months and 6.5 pounds lost, my blue skirt fits like it did when I was fitted for it, WITHOUT CONTROL TOP panty hose!!! I'm so giddy that I could wear this uniform every day now!

  • Good job! As a retired Air Force First Sergeant I am back on the path to health and fitness. Its great seeing people take control of their health and do something to improve it.

    The pants are kind of horrible on their own accord, hahahaha. I don't think I've worn those since tech school!

    I hate the pants also. I like the skirts the best! I am needing to fit back into mine also.

    Congrats! I would have to say on a personal note, I was not in my best shape right after Basic. 2 years after, here I am 15 pounds lighter and going on my second time of having my skirt fitted. YIPPEE :)

    Great going.

    As a serving Royal Air Force Sergeant, I am really glad I no longer have to wear control top pantyhose to fit into my uniform :tongue:
