Well, the plateau has shifted slightly... am now down to 250lbs and under 47" waist. Yay! That's about 12 lbs and 2 inches in about 7 weeks. I'd have preferred 14/3 but progress is progress. My wife is asking "so, how long are you going to keep wearing those oversized jeans?" (they are size 46) My response is, "Once I am under 46, I will swap down to my 44s. Once I'm under 44 I'll swap down to 42s, etc." I hate the fact that these days men's pants are no longer reliable as far as sizing is concerned. So annoying!
