 No sweats...couldn't get them big enough.  I did wear and still wear knit pants with lastic waists for around the house chilling out.

Nope - elastic waist jeans, such a fashion statement - were my thing.

I could not for the life of me have fit in 3x sweatpants pre-op (I am bigger on the bottom half). I'd have been afraid to buy 4x without trying them on.

I get all my old clothes out of my house as soon as they no longer fit.

not only do I constantly wear sweat pants, but I have the elastic waist kakis as well... my resolution to myself when I get to goal is slacks and nice jeans.  I am sure that will make my wife happy too.

No sweat pants for me! Just would not go there.

As long as I could cram my ass and belly in a pair of jeans that's what I did. I remember refusing to buy a size larger just before I started on my surgeon's program. My belly hurt someting fierce by the end of the day wearing those jeans. But I was not going back to my largest size ever. No way. Should have, but refused.

Now that I'm thinner I'll wear track pants, but still don't have any sweats.

Ditto on the yoga pants!  I would wear them until they got nappy.  I always wore them in black with a "dressy" shirt that was always really long.  I couldn't wear sweats to work but this was the closest thing. 
     Never, never, never give up!

I must be completely backwards ! I NEVER wore sweatpants/sweatshirts because I never exercised - I did wear (heaven help me....knit elastic waist pants !) In size 3X

NOW I bought sweatpants and sweatshirts to wear to the gym each morning. (With a tank top underneath for when I get too hot and actually take the sweatshirt off !) I NEVER owned "work out" clothing in my entite 55 years of life ~ now I do !

And the bottoms are in a ladies medium ! and the tops an XL (still retained the girlz !)

I feel really bad now!  When I was fat I couldn't wear sweats because I was always hot and sweaty already and sweats just made my body temp hotter....now that I have lost weight I FREEZE TO DEATH!  I had to go put and purchase sweats to wear around the house because I am cold all the time!

Yes that was my style too.
I purged two closets of clothes but I still have a lot more to get rid of.

Great to see you

Cheers!

Oh yeah. Sweat pants but also the fat ladie's friend - black knit pants with elastic waist. My friend calls them "roundy-round pants".  Nothing else fit regardless of size. And of course they were all too long.  Still have a bunch of that stuff. Gotta dump it!    Diane

I still have sweats but I only wear them to the barn to feed the animals. They don't care what you wear. They keep me warm in the Michigan weather.
