Title: Waistline Poll
Post by: dystopia on September 24, 2009, 04:00:03 PM
So I went to a wedding a couple of weeks ago and realized that my suit pants no longer fit and had to buy new pants.

I ended up buying pants with a waist size of 38!  It's been a while since I've bought pants, and the last pair I bought were size 34. (I'll admit I wear pretty loose clothes as my sense of style is firmly stuck in the past*)

Just curious about the folks on this site.  No need to post anything if you want to remain anonymous, I just thought it might be an interesting poll.

I picked 34.

I was 32 ever since I got out of high school, but the last few pairs of pants I have bought have been a little bigger.

Seems to depend on the drawws.  Jeans(brand) v.  Pants (Dockers)  v.  Shorts,  etc.

However,

I think I am a pretty solid 34 now.

I would suspect that your size 34 is a generous 34, in which case I'd probably be about a 30 in US sizing ;)

Normally a 36 but I put on some sympathy pregnancy weight for my wife and am now a 38.  I roller coaster between the two sizes but it is hard to tell visually being 6' 4"so I carry my weight well.  But the weight likes to collect in the love handle region since I have such a long waist.

Well, since the option was 26-, I went with that, but 26" is still 5" too large...

Nat's a 21, I'm a 28, but we already out-eat everyone we know. :)

I prefer biscuits with butter and honey.  However, 2 biscuits won't help.  Neither will 4.


As Kev said, we out-eat everyone we know.  Friends think we don't eat enough, until they see us eat.  Then it becomes a topic for conversation.  Relatives are convinced we must have hollow legs.

Nothing we can do about it; we can't gain weight when we try.  We're blessed with high metabolism.  (And I must say that I don't mind that one bit. :D)

I think I'll take that as a compliment.  Oh, and this, kind sirs, is what I would call a blessing. :)
