COsleeveDude 273 Posted October 7, 2012 Since surgery on July 17th I've went from a Big and Tall men's 48 inch waist to a regular 40 inch waist. From Levi's 559's (relaxed straight) to 505's (regular straight). Which is nice not only because it's a smaller, slimmer size, but also because big and tall clothes cost more than regular clothes. 3 Butterthebean, Livinglifeout and ashleyxx reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nate 292 Posted October 7, 2012 I'm 6'5 I'm always going to be in Big & Tall clothes. But the day of surgery I was in 8XL Pants. So far I'm down to 4-5XL depending on if it's jeans or fleece. By the time I hit goal I'll hopefully be right around a 38-42in waist with a 33in inseam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was sleeved close to the same time you were 8/14 and was a tight 18 and now a comfortable 16 in some pants. I feel it's slow going. Please share what you're doing....maybe I'm doing something wrong or not enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
