My 50+ jersey is too big.
Nothing wrong with the jersey, I've just lost almost 30 pounds over the last 4 months.
I just wanted to gloat.

Congratulations!
Now, is it too big to wear, or just loose? Do I need to start another order.
(Slight derail...I have somehow lost my 50+ bibs. Seems impossible, but I have, so I need to do an order just to get a new set)

The phrase I first thought of putting in my reply would show up as nothing but *'s so plan "B". 
Congratulations on a job well done, Retro, Watch out for turkey season.

Well, I've never really posted there but, seeing as how I'm almost down to 180, yeah.
Also, while I was out riding today, a recumbent buddy offered to give me a pair of genuine recumbent shorts still in the plastic shipping bag. He accused me of laughing at him when I told him they were too big. He was right too.

I do Weight Watchers on line and only eat sensible food. No pie. I don't measure or weigh anything (just guess) but I do log everything that I eat. I consciously avoid foods that are a lot of WW points and favor foods that are fewer points. I'm positive that my point counting wouldn't satisfy a nutritionist or accountant, but the bottom line is that I'm losing weight and that's my objective.

Allow me to enjoy the unusual turn of phrase: "I am happy for your loss."
