Default Great post!

Jeff, thanks for the great post - the fashion tips were both hilarious and totally on point. I can't wait to have some "after" pictures to post.

And, yes, I do still know how to buy my own clothes, thank you - I was a "normal" weight person until age 25 and was a total clothes horse. I cannot wait to escape the Hell that is men's Big and Tall fashion. I long for the day that I can buy clothes that aren't (1) hideous "big guy" tents with gruesome plaids (can anyone say "Fat Bastard"?), inexplicable horizontal stripes (make one look even wider), or vertical stripes (make one look like a beach ball), (2) designed for huge 19 year old hip-hoppers and gangsta rappers, or (3) styled for golf-obsessed super-obese retirees in Palm Beach...
