congrats, dude.
they're still a little tight on me, but 40's are falling down now if i don't belt them.
my usual size is really more in the 32-34 range but i was ill last winter and got up to 220 when my normal weight is 150-170. it's been tough to cut the weight. i'm not as young as i used to be, i hate pumping iron and only run when i'm being chased.
what i need help with is finding comfortable, durable and affordable shoes for an extra wide foot. those sweat shop shoes are never wide enough unless i buy them a couple sizes too long. i found a pair of wide ones at kmart a few months ago but they're already starting to come unglued.

Good for u Dana :thumbup
I have seen your pics, if you wear your jeans where they are supposed to be wore
you would be wearing alot bigger than a 38
I understand you have lost some weight but you need to be trying to lift a couple weights
pull your pants up and you will be wearig a 48

boy and they called me mean?
that shit about the weight lifting is crap. i'm a musician, walk a lot and blow a lot of hot air through cold horns. it's only since an illness last winter that my weight ever went over 200 and some circumstances this year that have made it a little more difficult to cut weight than ever before, but i never had to pump iron like some freekin' brainless jock on steroids to do it.
careful diet and staying active is plenty. too much time on the couch with zoo-zoos and wham-whams is easy to beat if you can tear yourself away from the tube and eat some carrots instead of twinkies for a while.
hell, trade in the vidiocy for a honey and do the horizontal cha-cha on that couch a few times a day beats the crap out of weight-lifting.

Congrats, Dana!! Keep up the good work!!! 
If I knew how to knit you a belt (referring to the other thread) I would. I can quilt you a belt but it would make you look a little light in your loafers. And there is no way in hell I would ever do that to you.
Good on you, sweetie!!

:24::24: it says my mom right in the OP I thinkThank Kee-ryst. I was having a visual moment there.
Good for you!!
SHE needs a belt???? Shitfirehowdydoody...guess I better read! :willy_nilly::willy_nilly:
Please don't hate me because I'm lazy.
Thanks MelissaGood for you!!
no, i'm saying there are other ways to do it.
the best physical condition i was ever in was when i was having sex at least twice a day and running a loading dock in between.
like heavy thought, i don't like to do heavy lifting unless i'm getting paid and i never run unless i'm being chased or need to get out of the way of a moving vehicle in a hurry.
okay, let me rephrase that: there are methods of cutting weight and trimming loose skin that work better for me than pumping iron and running marathons.
please don't be insulted. nobody has ever accused me of being normal.
i'd still love to come chase some bass with you if you can sneak me in and out of alabama unnoticed.
my folks are wintering down there and i know if you're under 40 and are a serious bass hole plugger, you want to go fishing with my pop.
i can't tell you his name here for obvious reasons, but if you have access to old issues of B.A.S.S., you might find the name of bob lang, owner of lang's fishing resort on lake marie in lake county, illinois.
dad was his tournament partner. i'm pretty sure they at least placed in the eufala tournament more than once. i'd have to check with dad to know if that's one of the ones they won. he just finally sold the boat -- an older model ranger than the one you just got.
