Oh boy more shopping where do I sign up. Thinking about this whole BBQ thing, maybe instead we could just charter a bus for a trip to the outlets! BTW I was always a jeans and t-shirts kind of guy before all this started and I enjoyed three colors of tshirts, black, white and my favorite gray. Now I am buying golf shirts in colors like teal, electric blue, plumb and so on. Also buying button ups. My boss who is a 50yo fashioniesta has been complimenting my clothes when I dress down (he used to get so p!ssed when I wore hoodies with wrestling stuff on them). So how is that for a 180!
Seriously, weekends the days we lived for to spend time with our families are now cringe worthy. We all can make it through this and come out the other side better people who truly deserve the best and as ZZ Tops always said "every girl is crazy for a sharp dressed man."

How sad is this? I am actually excited to buy a new vacuum as WAW is taking hers. lol.
I am going to have to join the shopping bandwagon too. have been a sweats person for a few years but I am wasting away to nothing due to gym and changing eating habits. Had a nice pair of tan jeans on yesterday and wife mentioned that my ask looked smaller. I just said yes it is.
We will have to take an "after" picture of our new duds and post them somewhere. ha
Fight the good fight no matter the quality of your opponent.

Thornton you should so go see a movie! I actually want to go see one. Alone. I have never done it before. I wish we could share photos on here just to show you eachother how different we all look now a days LOL.I do gotta say I feel sexy 95% of the time now. At the very least we ALL will be in shape, with nice clothes, and amazing personalities for who ever ends up with us.

I love where this thread is going! I also wish there was a way to share photos! No such thing as the biggest loser here! You all are winners at doing your 180's and working really hard to show the world how wonderful you are in your spiffy appearances. I love it!!! Look good, feel great!
I myself put on a dress for work today and had to add a separate cover up on it because it was a little too sexy (in my opinion) for work... I've lost a little bit of weight so the curves are a little more pronounced... It's not a bad thing.... But I was like, "whoah, tone it down Feyth!" Dang, if there's one good thing about all this crap, is that we certainly get to learn to be and show our best selves to the world.
Hope you all have a great day. Hang in there Thornton!

I'm feeling a little apprehensive about going shopping at one of my favorite stores after work today. It's the same place I first met W after our seperation the first time. It was such a special day to be able to hold her and kiss her again after 2 months of basically no contact.
So now I get to go back to that place and re-live some things. If I'm honest, I feel a little anxious about it.
