    It finally fits!

    Hi everyone. I've been a member reading posts in the background for awhile, but finally decided to post a couple of pics. I finally lost a ton of weight (106 lbs.) and can fit into a kilt I had made in Scotland when I was there on my honeymoon in 1987. The tartan is MacDonald ancient.

    You deserve respect for your commitment to succeed such an important weight loss. I wish you may feel 26 years younger by wearing that kilt!

    Welcome to XMTS from the mountains of northern New Mexico!

    You're a new man in more ways than one. It must have taken will power and determination to lose all that weight. You're an inspiration to us all. That's a beautiful kilt and you wear it well. Congratulations!
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.
