Re: Getting into shape
I had a wedding to go to Saturday and made the mistake of not trying my suit on until Wednesday or Thursday last week. It was not good.
Thankfully I was able to find a jacket that fit me just right without needing to be altered at all. I didn't mention that I needed it for the next day so I was very happy when the lady was checking the fit and told me that there wasn't anything she even wanted to have altered. I didn't have time anyway! The pants are a little long by an inch or so but at least I was able to get through Saturday without looking like a clown in an oversize suit. I didn't realize how much I'd lost but I went from a 54 jacket down to a 48 over he past year or so. In a pinch I could have just moved the buttons over on my old one and looked decent enough but it wouldn't have been ideal.

Re: Getting into shape
I've been a lazy ass all winter, I'm hoping baseball season whips me into shape....problem is that at first it's going to show just how out of shape I am.

Re: Getting into shape
Nice work, Numbers.
I shed my winter coat early this year. Down 23 pounds since Jan 1 just from eating better, zero soda and walking a bunch at work. I think I finally figured out what's wrong with my shoulder and if I can get that rehabbed a little I can start lifting weights again.

"First, let's get you out of those jean shorts. Eventually we'll start working on badass handstands. But first, the shorts."
I'm down to 168 lbs from almost 230 last summer. I stopped trying to lose weight a month or two ago and it's still coming off here and there. Time to start getting more serious with the weights I think, I just hate it so much.
