My sensei and I had that very same discussion last week in my first night back in class for three weeks. He is of the opinion that it's not us- it's the temperature. Cold air makes our clothes shrink. I agree with him.

that it's not us- it's the temperature. Cold air makes our clothes shrink. I agree with him.

I like that idea, but my wife will still say that I am still eating to much

I find it's not only the cold weather, but just old father time that sneeks in at night and takes all the clothes in. My clothes seem to shrink no matter what time of year it is.

I've noticed a similar problem and have concluded its a conspiracy by kilt makers. They put some kind of shrinking compounds on the straps that make them tighter over time, so we have to buy new kilts. Yeah, that it . . .

Best regards,

Sorry, lads - you have to bite the salad - its the carbs. Cut out the carbs and your kilts will miraculously expand almost overnight.

It might come as a shock to those who believe the media and medical professionals - but its the carbs that make your clothes shrink.

After years - decades even, of failed diets, I did Atkins by the book and lost 12 inches off my waist. Plus I taught myself to make and remake kilts, and found XMTS - which can't be bad, can it?

I lost 30 pounds in 3 months on Atkins 9 years ago. I found 10 of them within 2 years but managed to keep the rest off until about a year ago, when 15 more snuck back home. Pleater is right, though, they snuck back in company with chocolate ice cream, bread, potato chips, and Little Debbie Swiss Rolls.

I'm in the middle of a 4-week gastric cleansing. Last week was white meats, fruit, veggiies, nuts, and gluten/wheat-free grains. This is week 2, nothing but fruits, veggies, rice, and protein powder - it gives the gut a chance to rest and rejuvenate and eliminate bad gut bacteria and dietary allergens. I still have to watch the portions, but I'm hoping this will kick-start a fat loss.

My first kilt was a 36 waist, most recently 37.5. It's always easier to make a big kilt small than a small kilt big.
