    That is the size of the two pairs of jeans I purchased today. Just wanted to toot my own horn.

      By 'horn' do you mean the shoe-horn you are going to need to pry your way into those things? jk! Congrats.

          Gidget was the one goading me into trying them on. I didn't think they'd fit at all. I was shocked when they did, though I had a feeling they would. The other day we went through all of our clothes as we're transitioning seasons and Gidget was transitioning into maternity. We ended up taking a bag full of stuff to Plato's Closet and while they were going through the clothes I tried on some jeans. Gidget wouldn't let me get the 36 x 32 True Religion jeans I tried on. They fit perfect, but the pockets looked ridiculous on them. Besides, I don't have an Ed Hardy or Affliction shirt to wear with them.

                40 x 32. But I have to be honest the 40's got kind of snug before the Fitday evolution began.

                Most of my shirts were XXL. Now I swim in them. I got rid of a bunch, giving away what I wasn't able to sell at Plato's Closet. My dress shirts are 18 36/37 but Gidget is a budding seamstress and was able to salvage those and most of my other button up shirts by tailoring them for me. The crappy part is my other dress clothes don't fit. I have 3 suits I don't even bother putting on because they look like zoot suits on me. Those were 50L. I tried on some jackets the other day and the 46L's fit well, some a bit big still. I tried on an athletic cut 46L that was perfect. I don't know if it'd be worth taking my old suits to a tailor. They're not overly expensive. Two of them are Ralph Lauren though and I love the fabric. I just know taking in the jacket and pants to fit properly would probably cost a pretty penny so I don't know that I'd be saving that much over just buying something new.

                This is one of the big problems with losing weight.

                    A few years ago when I dropped from a waist 38 to 34 I had a few suits retailored. I don't remember the price but it wasn't too expensive.

                      I was thinking about the In n Out implications of the title of this thread... would probably send you (Surfah) back to your old pants, if it wouldn't kill you outright. But wouldn't that be cool to see? a 36x32 of cheesy meaty goodness topped with fried onions.

                        You're in luck, there is a blog documenting the consumption of an In-N-Out 100x100.

                          They do that? I only ever get grilled (which are delicious, BTW).

                            Toot away. Is this a permanent destination, or just a rest stop? Either way, nice job. I still have some of my old clothes around for fun.
