Hi everybody
not sure if anybody as had a similar experiance to me recently. I put on a suit today that I haven't worn for a few month and it fell off me without a belt and the jacket looks massive. I have had a hard winter training and the company I work for have moved to casual clothing for work except for board meetings. I hadn't realized how much weight I had lost and how much my body as changed.
Proves that us tri are one of the best ways for people to keep fit and loss weight
I can take the trousers off without undoing them.

Could be useful on occasion [;)]
I'm finding this a bit. Not so much as some.
Slim is good - as long as you dont get silly.
I Should make an effort to buy some new ones as i'm starting to look like the final scene from the film 'Big' where Tom Hanks is walking back down the street turning into a kid with clothes hanging off him!
The missus said I had to have a pair of Jeans from Primark for £9.99 as I keep shrinking out of the old ones. She has purchased some, and currently they are a tight fit!
1) You loose weight and need new clothes on the way down
2) As your training kicks in, you then start to grow in places - stomach smaller, while thighs and chest/back get bigger. Then you need new clothes again.
3) All the while you need loads of technical clothing.
I've gone from a 36 (actually a couple of 38) inch trousers to a 32" - and recently a 30" fits.
I went through a phase of being able to fit an off the peg suit - but now the trousers are too short/jacket too tight, or the waist is too big while the length/jacket is fine.
I've needed new belts - to try to hold up the increasingly non-fitting trousers.
The picture was from the end of last year - before a massive trip to the charity shops.

I have gone down at least one cloth size if not two , the only thing that hasn't changed is my chest size (well one 1 inch) really not in proportion
a 41 inch chest and a 32 inch waist , still slightly over 13 stone but hoping to get below that for the season, I used to play rugby and wasn't fat . But must have been carriying a lot of excess muscle compared to the lean stuff I have know
Its not a bad complaint.. but Id rather be saving for a tri bike than buying clothes..
Suit trousers with elastic waistbands would be ideal [:D]
