I'm female and for as long as I can remember, I've worn men's t-shirts.  I've tried a few women's t-shirts over the years, but they never feel like they fit right.  

Have any of you found that women's cut clothing fits better after weight loss?

Yes, I used to never buy tshirts unless they were regular (men's) cut. Now I prefer women's cut shirts (but still not juniors). It's amazing not having my belly stick out farther than my chest!

I only wear women's t-shirts that have a shaped waist - I find that a boxy cut makes me look ... boxy!!

Absolutely!  First of all, when I got down to my goal, my skin was jiggly, so I started wearing shapers to give a smoother silhouette.  Hint - get a size larger than you need so you get the smoothing without feeling like a stuffed sausage.

I have no idea what I wore before surgery as far as t-shirts but what I have found is that if you want a sweatshirt that covers your ass you better buy a mens and not a womyn's.  I have no idea why they can't make a fitted long sweatshirt for females.  I have one that I wear all the time, and I have looked everywhere, it is bizarre so now I buy XXL men's and wear it like a dress.  It is weird.

I used to wear men's t-shirts, but now I swim in a small. After I lost my weight, my stepmother had to tell me to dress form fitting, I was so used to the baggy stuff. So now all my clothes are women's small and curvy. Love it!
