Default I can wear my husbands t shirt! and I joined a gym!

I just bought some new work out pants because I joined a gym the other day victory number 1! and victory number two I was looking for a t shirt to match my new work out pants and I pulled a light blue shirt out of the closet because it matched not paying attention I put it on and then I realized it was my hubbys! I have never been able to wear his clothes with out severly stretching them or them hugging my fat rolls so tight there would be no way in heck I'd wear them in public! but the t-shirt fit perfectly!!! loosely even! He's still 20 lbs lighter then me but the fact I can wear his clothes is awesome! I always felt so embarrassed that I couldn't wear my hubbys t-shirts to bed and things like that that other normal weight wife's can do..!

Good for you!!

I know how silly that might sound, but it IS true! For some reason we women like to wear our man's tshirts! Even though I know how smelly and sweaty he gets in his shirts, when he's gone there's nothing better than to crawl into one of his t's.

And I think they like it too...

I love the story about the t-shirt, it is very sweet and very true. Don't we all feel loved romping around in our guy's shirt?

Congrats to you on your progress and for joining the gym.

That's awesome! I remember when DH's t-shirts barely fit me! Took me a year and a half, but now I'm swimming in them!! Good luck!

Congrats on the new steps forward! I just joined a gym last week and it's one of the best decisions I ever made in terms of getting the ball really rolling (and never rolling back!). I strongly recommend you take advantage of the knowledge they have there and go for a consultation. Normally they are included. It'll give you a good idea of where to start and what to do now.

Have fun!
