Ken Bessler wrote: [9 quoted lines suppressed] Ken, it's *great* that you've lost so much weight, congratulations! But I have a question about your pans size. How tall are you? Are you wearing your belt at your waist, or tucked under your belly? Can you post a picture? I'm serious; not trying to be smart or funny. I'm trying to figure out the clothes size difference. I was wearing 48" waist pants at 270 pounds, and am now wearing 40" waist at 215 pounds. At 202 lbs I expect I'll be down to 38" pants; I lose about an inch at my waist for every ten to fifteen pounds lost. The last time I wore 34" was when I was 170 pounds, and I'm 6'2". I've always worn my pants at waist level (I gained weight with dignity!). I have a brother-in-law though, who wears the same waist size pants as I do, and t is 70 pounds heavier than I. But he wears his pants around his hips, under his belly with his gut hanging over the belt. He's not really anywhere close to the waist size of the pants that he wears. As i said, I'm curious about a 34" waist at 202 pounds! Are you 7 feet tall ... or built like Ahnold Schwarzenegger? g -- Peter 270/215/180 Before/Current Pix: http://users.thelink.net/marengo/wei...htlosspix.html Different builds. I am 6ft tall 180Lbs and am wearing size 32 waist (34 length). I wear them about 1 inch below my belly button (no belly hanging over). I don't have enough belly left to hang over! Twenty five years ago at 170 lbs I wore size 30 waist. When I was at 234Lbs last year, I was wearing size 38 although they were too tight and my belly did hang over a bit. Size 40 would probably have fit me fine. I wear size 15 1/2 or medium shirt. I am not overly muscular, average build and medium frame. -- Randy M 234/180/175 6'0" Tall Atkins since 7/14/03 crmartin47 --nospam-- at hotmail dot com |
