Losing weight and body changes
Hello, I am new to road cycling, I been riding for a year now and starting to loose weight. I am getting in shape and I look thinner now, I lost like 13 pounds. But I also noted that I am like loosing width in my back and chest. All my formal shirts fit big now, the same for sport coats. It like I have to put most of my wardrobe in the trash.
Is this normal? |
Yes, if you lose weight it is normal for your clothes to seem large.
If you were to gain weight, it would be normal for those same clothes to seem too small. |

Suspect it's just fat you're losing not muscle mass. Simpler to just buy some new clothes unless you intend to add and maintain substantial muscle mass for the rest of your life.

Yes, I guess, I thought I would only loose volumen in the stomach, not in the chest, back etc.
