NSV - It ALMOST Fits!

So I was in Walmart looking for sandals today and I couldn't find anything I liked. I saw a shirt that I liked and wanted to buy it. I usually wear XL but I wanted to try a large today. The only sizes they had were 2XL 3XL and a medium. So I thought I would try the medium on for ****s and giggles. Well my confidence level immediately went up once I got into the fitting room. It is still pretty tight but I'm close to getting there. And I have never worn a medium shirt before!

The pictures are sorta blurry because my camera sucks.

Edit: Couldn't get the photos to show up!

    Hey looks good! That is how they wear them now, a little tight, but it does not look tight to me!! Great job!

    Fantastic!

    I'm getting there as well. I haven't fit into a medium since middle school (close to 8 or so years ago).

    Keep on going!

    That's great. I just recently fit into a size 12 jean and while they are a little tight it is a great feeling to be able to wear something I haven't been able to for over 20 years.
  • Awesome job! It looks like the standard style to wear the shirt tight to show the muscle.

    Thank you all! I feel so much better and feel like no one is going to stop me.

    Yeah I have seen guys wearing tight shirts before. I'm a little self conscious about my love handles sticking out. I don't know about anyone else but I feel like they really stick out in the first picture.

    My Father has pretty much been echoing what has been said in this topic so I did end up going back and buying it. It'll be great motivation!
