[QUOTE=Juanita503;991398]I really hate waking up before my alarm clock goes off... what a waste of money that thing was.[/QUOTE]
Happened this morning! I was expecting to be EXHAUSTED because I couldn't get my body to sleep last night. Apparently it just wanted less sleep. First time that's happened. :) Feels brill.
With 40 inch shoulders and a 32 inch waist I can't find shirts that fit. They are all too loose at the waist or tight or dig into my arm pits.

Geek is the same way. Try Express and Old Navy, those tend to work for him. For Old Navy, I think it's the vintage cut, or something like that. He occasionally gets lucky at the GAP and Dillard's.

I'm starting to get that way too :-( [ or is it :-) ]. I have lots of medium size t-shirts that dig into my armpits. I really like some of them a lot (band t-shirts and stuff), but they look kind of ridiculous on me now. They bunch up alot around/below my chest.
[QUOTE=naiadknight;692712]*I have to find yet another batch of smaller/ larger bras. I've gone from a 34C to a 30DD and it's still shrinking/ growing.
*I lost some of the padding that made hip-checking people and things so fun and painless.
*I have a waist, hips, thighs, and ass. Most clothing manufaturers say "Pick any two."
*I can't wear half my pre-primal shoes because my feet have shrank, even with going barefoot or barefootish even more often.
*I haven't cleared enough freezer space yet for half a cow.
*The scars I picked up from my primal cooking misadventures look entirely too cool to say "I got pulling the cast iron out of the oven."[/QUOTE]
This post made me laugh, I was beginning to think I am abnormal - who's boobs get bigger when losing weight???? And my hips and arse look bigger because my waist an stomach are smaller! Lol :-)

Same problem, 40" chest and 30" waist. Just realized 1/3 of my shirts don't fit anymore. Glad I kept some fat boy clothes.
I can't imagine buying clothes for fit men. My husband is slender with a small upper body and even clothes sized medium are HUGE over the stomach. Target has some athletic cuts, but I think they are for men like him- athletic=no beer gut, but they seem to fit his shoulders and chest which are not built. I think athletic is code for you don't have a gut.
I guess that is why you still see body builders in those awful Zubah pants and crop tops, LOL!
I've been having more issues with jeans, lately, more than shirts. My wife manages to find decent shirts at Express or somewhere (I guess I don't really know).
However, with the lifting I've been doing, all of the 29-30" waist jeans I got a couple years ago are now too tight in the thighs. I can't even take a full normal stride wearing those jeans, even though the waist still fits fine. Thankfully the Lucky Brand loose fit jeans are pretty awesome. No one else seems to be jeans for guys that lift. Even my boxer briefs are too tight in the thighs these days, and tend to ride up.
My leg lifts are going much more smoothly than my upper-body lifts. :-[
Having a UK small size 10 waist, size 12 hips and wearing a 36-38 bra with a "slightly over a D" cup. And having to buy clothes that flatter me... :/
I swear, EVERY dress and pencil-skirt I own is loose at the waist, because I need a 12 to accomodate my hips... THIS is why I live in "oh so 'femenine'!" jeans and T-shirts, people... :p

Preaching to the choir, hun. Size 2 hips, size 0 waist, 30DD tits, and size 2 shoulders. If it fits in the tits and shoulders, it's too big in the waist. If it fits at the waist, I can't get it over the hips or to button across the chest. I finally gave up and started tailoring my own shit, because I got tired of nothing ever fitting.
