I had a couple of pairs of pants which were small on me...

I'm wearing those for now. They've gotten loose now too. I've bought new drawers and some tee shirts. I'm wearing polos that were too tight before and my dress shirts are fitting well now (they used to be tight and uncomfortable.

I'm trying to resist going all in on new clothes just now because my goal weight is still another 70 pounds lower. If I make that goal, I'll shoot for another 20 pounds. Honestly, I'm curious as to just how lanky I would look if I got any lower. I haven't weighed less than 250 since about 6th grade. Right now I'm right around my high school football playing weight. And I'm pretty sure I was an inch or two shorter back then.
