I've been sick of all of my clothes being too loose lately so I found some nice deals online and ordered some clothes. The first thing I noticed was that my clothes were cheaper this time around because I'm not shopping in the big and tall section any more. I only spent $100 and got myself 4 nice shirts and 2 pairs of jeans. I ordered everything a little small since I'm still losing at a pretty good pace. I figured I'd shrink into everything in the next month or two. So I started trying things on when they got delivered today. Everything fit perfectly. It's great to be wearing an XL shirt again, I think the last time that happened was when I was a freshman in high school. And my new jeans which are size 42 fit great also. I'm starting to realize I'm a long ways off from where I started. Last winter I was bummed out because I was buying 4x shirts and size 58 jeans. When I started atkins all of those clothes were tight on me. I'm getting close to a year done on atkins and i am feeling great. This was an awesome day.

they are a whole lot cheaper than the big and tall stores,
