I lost 50lbs. I found out I have IBS and went way down. The tipping point was walking to my car on a beautiful day in the grocery store parking lot with my hands full while I pants myself. Amazing how fast gravity works. I used to have a set of normal and fat clothes. Now I had to add a third set.

To the doctor too. That turned out to be a very wise choice
Managing my stress, probiotics and being on a low FODMAP diet got me out of the ditch. I also learned that for me, health is the only wealth.

New jeans, can't get into the ones I already have, thankfully none are real new. I went out and bought a pair of overalls last week for my new size until I start working the garden, I'll probably lose a lot of the new weight then. I didn't gain all this until late last fall.

And I was looking at the need for new undies just yesterday. Next time I go to the city, that's on the list.

The nice thing about wearing a kilt is I can wear the exact same thing under it that I do under my regular clothes.

My family is a sept of the Buchanan clan. I do love some of those Irish tartans. I might have to add one to my wardrobe.

Great looking and open to anyone who wants to wear it (not that the others aren't but usually people will wear their family tartan or service tartan.) Blackwatch and Isle of Skye and a few others are designated specifically for everyone, Scottish or not.
