54 days of maintenance and another "achievement" at J. Crew.

Maintenance is going pretty well. I'm up to 54 days now. My weight has still dropped a little over that time, but less than 5 lbs, so that's pretty flat. The daily fluctuations are still sizable, but I've gotten used to them. It's actually pretty hard to eat enough calories to maintain my weight (never thought I'd hear myself say that), but I'm trying to eat even bigger breakfasts so I don't end up having to eat the never-ending dinner.

Satisfying moment: going to J. Crew outlet store yesterday and realizing that their pants, which had never fit me well, not only look good on me, but that I can even where size 32 of their Urban Slim Fit chinos. And they're not even skin tight. Wow! Oh yes, and in shirts/sweaters I'm now a "S" mostly, not even an "M". Pretty amazing for a guy who had trouble fitting into some XXLs less than a year ago.

Also, at the Ralph Lauren outlet store, thanks to childhood obesity in the USA, I can now fit into an XL boys shirt. They're actually a good deal since they're about half the price of a men's S, but the sleeves are a little shorter (not too bad) and the little polo man is slightly smaller (I wouldn't notice, but some brand-conscious people might).
