The hems at the bottoms of my pant legs are starting to fray (they tend to get walked on when I get home and take my shoes off, since my inseam is apparently 28.5"). Since I'd lost weight on Atkins anyway I decided that now's the time to restock. I realized at the checkout that I've never bought clothing before that was smaller than the stuff it was replacing. As odd as it sounds, that's when I felt like I'd accomplished something with the diet, not when I jump on the scale and see how much I weigh.
