    I wore the target trousers all day

    Yes, I wore my target trosers (pants) all day. My son said I would never fit them again. I bought them 28 years ago long before he was born, and half a lifetime away for me (56 now).

    I liked those trousers very much, although they are just plain black, but cut so very well in a nice fabric. I started to gain weight soon after buying then, but never had the heart to throw them out.

    Well, I wore them comfortably all day. Just a little bit of podge showing over the 37 inch low waistband, but I was wearing a sweater. I bit more work as the weather warms, and I will be able to wear them with a tucked in shirt.

    Yes, Atkins does work - so don't get disheartened - stick with it.
    Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
    he said, 'Don't count calories.'

      What? Wearing trousers nearly as old as you, Rich?

      Thanks for the pat on the back.

              In due course.

              I don't look very different now I am 202lb to the 205lb picture. I think I have put on quite a lot of muscle cycling 20 miles a day.

              A few pounds up or down on men as tall as I makes little difference - that was part of my downfall - the gain can be hidden a long time.

              When I get the new bike that is being hand built for me (26inch frame), and when the weather is warmer, you may see me in cycling shorts!

                  That's Awesome!

                  But some things I am discturbed about.

                  These pants are from the seventies ?

                  You don't want to be wearing them too long! It's scary seeing all those 80 year olds wearing 40 year old clothes!

                  (It's an analogy, I'm not infering you are eighty!)

                    You must be so pleased! I had a smug smile all day, I'm sure, when a month or so ago I wore a dress that had not fit since 1994!

                        Sorry it took me so long to say congrats! I was seriously afraid you meant you wore pants that made you a moving target or something! Glad it was GOOD pants.
