Here's my latest story:
I've always liked to wear my shorts a little on the large size. It's not even a fashion thing, I'm just 6'5", so the bigger the waist, the shorts were a little longer. So I've obviously been losing a lot of weight, so my shorts that were big to begin with were now almost unwearable. (Translation: I still liked them, my girlfriend made me get new ones.. of course)
So I finally decide to go to the store, so I drive to Old Navy to pick up some for cheap. On the way back to the shorts section, I notice a rack of shirts for only .97 cents. For that cheap, I would wear a shirt no matter what it looked like. For serious, it doesn't even matter. So I found 3 shirts, but they weren't my usual size. For the past 7 years, I have always worn a XXL, and all they had were XL shirts. Again, for .97 cents, it's worth trying it on.
So I go to the changing room to give it a go, expecting the shirt to be tighter than hotpants. And I try it on, and it fits perfectly.
Amazingly, I'm only a size XL now. It's not much, but I know I was happy for the rest of that day. I keep picturing that in my mind every time I look at something with carbs.
