SP Shirts Arrived and I can only laugh

Saturday, June 23, 2012

Sooooo, my shirts arrived.

XL exercise shirt? Good fit if a little snug, but I kind of expect that. In fact, putting on my normal XL workout shirt afterward, I realized I'm probably due to try some L shirts. It's looser than I though.

L T-shirt? .... I have an extra inch or more even around my widest point. This I did not expect. I'm not sure whether to order a medium T-shirt just to see what that works out as.

I should put up pics, but I'm planning to crash super early. Have to be up at an unnatural hour tomorrow for the trip to the 5k. So I'm cooking my veggies, eating, cleaning my teeth, packing my bag, and going to sleep soon.

    You are my hero! You got up before dawn to go exercise?! Talk about your inspirational post. Looking at your pictures - do you realize that you look younger in your most recent photo than you do in the first one? It is more than just the weight, I can't put my finger on it exactly, but you look younger.

Congratulations on completing another 5K!

    Great experience to try on clothes and realize that you really are smaller. And frustrating too that new clothes are too big before you even get a chance to wear them!!!

    Good luck at the race, hoping the weather was good! I'm buying a cheap t-shirt in S- M - L. To use as my gauge in sizes I need that visual goal especially when the scale isn't dropping consistently, the inches lost are a pleasant accomplishment.

    I want a SP shirt but this is one of the reasons I hate ordering clothes online because sometime sizes are deceiving. Anyway enjoy the race.

    Congradulations! If it wernt for the fact we have the same type of sholders I would say can't wait to see you in a small........don't do that by the way shaving bones to drop a few inches is bad but I can't wait to see you in a s/m cause I know you can do It!

    That is great! Is in it when you try a size you think should fit and it does not? It certainly beats the feeling of having to go for a bigger size! Good luck on your 5K!

    emoticon on your shirt sizes i alway get them a litle big to allow for shirking some I think it depends on how much you pay for it and what kind of material its made of . Hope you had a good race .
