Cat in the rack Posted February 25, 2015 Report Share Posted February 25, 2015 I've been slowly but surely gaining (hopefully good) weight for the last few months, training regularly, etcetera etcetera. A few weeks ago I started trying Intermittent Fasting with a 16 hour fast and an 8 hour "feast", with training taking place while fasted (followed by a monstrous breakfast). The gradual weight gain has continued, roughly at the same rate around half a kilo or so a month.However, here comes the bad news, even though I went clothes shopping a few months ago and got essentially a new wardrobe of jeans and t shirts, I'm gonna have to do it all over again. As of lately my waist has gone down from a 30 to a 28 (back around June it went from 32-34 down to 30), so now my jeans can slide off and my t shirts flap about my waist like I'm a disgruntled penguin. This truly is a terrible fate, whatever will I do.But in all seriousness, given that my workout program has just yesterday changed (note the lifting weights in my signature have been reduced as is advised when starting a new program), I will wait a few weeks before buying new clothes in case my waist returns to its previous size. Until then it's constant belts and slightly baggy around the waist t shirts.Incidentally, I often find t shirts to be not as tight at the waist as I'd like, does anybody have any tips aside from tucking it into my jeans (seriously, I feel like I'm from the 50s when I do that) or having t shirts that are tighter around the shoulders? Any particular brands or styles that I could benefit from (here in the UK, not the US)?Thanks for reading my woot, have a woot-filled day 1 Quote Follow me on snapchat or instagram @ catintherackSquat: 115kgBench: 77.5kgDeadlift: 130kgTotal: 322.5kgWeight: 68kg Link to comment
Dradis Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 I've always had sets of "thin clothes" and "fat clothes". I can't maintain a size. When my thin clothes become my fat clothes i woot myself and buy some more thin clothes. When my thin clothes don't fit i have a word with myself. I never have to go naked 1 Quote Current challenge: http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/70839-bendy-dradis-stands-up-proper/ Link to comment
