So I've seen so many people, mainly girls always excited to fit into clothes. Since I'm a guy that never really has been into fashion, I didn't really understand that feeling. Plus truthfully I do not have any clothes from when I was "small" seeing I've been a big guy most of my life.

Well a couple weeks ago I was out and I bought a (L) large shirt . I normally wear a XXL shirts or sometimes a XL. I even have some XXXL shirts from back a couple years ago. I though I would buy a "L" shirt to give something to work towards. I put it away in the closet and didn't bother trying it on until today. I FIT INTO IT! Actually I fit great into it. It wasn't tight or anything.

Anyways I can finally understand what all the excitement is about fitting into clothes! lol

    It is a great feeling. I am pretty bummed out because I gave away one of my favorite dresses saying" I'll never fit in to that again!' Guess what I would fit into that again. I haven't found another one like it! Congratulations.

    If you have a picture of the dress, and can find other similar types -- go to a tailor and have a new one made.

    Sweet! Pretty soon you'll be shopping up a storm. ;-) Nothing to be ashamed of, my brother just lost about 30 lbs and was thrilled to buy some new clothes.
