I bought these about a year ago..

Recaro SPG racing seats..

there 38" waist size.. and I am a 48"

I'm really into racing, so these motivate me EVERYDAY to fit into them. I wont be able to reach my goal, UNLESS i can sit nice and snug :)

    My motivation is to not be the "fat mom". Cool seats, my kids have Recaro car seats love them... Don't think I will fit in them even when I'm smaller lol. They use them daily, but love to take turns in moms race car.... the corvette.
    Don't give up and always take it one day at a time, MFP is like AA for people who love food.

    yea def. not the norm... for me to compete on a higher level, i need to pass race regulations which requires me to have a FIA approved race seat... and most of them dont come in my size unless i get one customized which is going to run me THOUSANDS of dollars.

    i just want to be able to fit in that seat, and do what i love, it just happens to benefit me in both ways :)

    well see in the next 6months... i had to withdraw from a competition a few months ago due to me wanting to go on this weight loss journey.. even my friends said ill be scary fast if i drop the weight.. and that's very encouraging to me so i took it to heart.
