Topic: 38

That's the waist size of the jeans I put on this morning.  I haven't seen 38 in a long time.  I haven't weighed myself yet this month.  I'm a bit afraid after what I ate in the second half of July and all of August.  But I'm back in my routine with Chuck Norris' torture machine and either the Demonic Dominator 2000 elliptical or biking or hiking. 

I'm fairly pleased.  I didn't have to squeeze into them either.  They actually fit.  Loose cut, you know, but still.  38 waist size.  I was squeezing very tightly into 40s a year ago and really should have been in 42 or 44's but egotism prevented it. 

So I'm fairly happy with that.  Keep at it, I guess and maybe in another eight or ten months I'll be in 36's, which I haven't seen since the 1990's.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

I commented on Facebook also but will do here as well; Proud of you, keep it up.  Wish I could manage to head in the right direction.  Congrats on your efforts!

Quite admirable and you should be VERY proud of what you've accomplished!!!!!

Art and beauty are in the eyes of the beholder.
What constitutes excellent music is in the ears of the listener.

Re: 38

Congrats Zurf! I wear a 38 also, but actually I am a 34. One day I tried on some 36's and they felt so good, I bought a bunch of 38's. big_smile

I went with a big plate of pasta and a couple glasses of a cheap D'Abruzzo.  My wife says I'm not allowed to date bold, cheap, fruity red Italians.  So I drink them instead.
