Ht. 5'8", Start: 220 lb, Today: 197 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 160 lb - A lot of brands that are popular where I am are like Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch, and most of those clothes don't have a big enough size for me. :( But, I find that American Eagle has a wide range of sizes (if you buy online it even goes up to XXL) and the jeans have lengths that go from short to extra long, and up to waist size 18! The clothes are very fashionable and are sometimes a bit more expensive, I find that I fit right in, and a lot of in style clothes at the moment are loose. It used to be hard when the style was everythign tight, but i notice a lot of people wearing oversized sweaters, "boyfriend" fit clothes (which are generally looser and bigger, like they are men's clothing. :) I also find that even if you have a bit of a belly V necks look tons better than just the crew neck t shirts.
