Guys, what do you consider your ideal pants size ?

So far I've gone from a 46x30 to a 34! Love it!

I started at a 56 waist. Just bought a pair of 48's. I don't really know my "ideal." I'd like to hit a 38 but I can be happy at a 40.

I was a 46x30, now I'm a 32x30! I started to have to wear a belt with my 32x30 jeans, maybe gonna drop one more size. 3 more pounds to lose and my BMI will say healthy, for the first time in 20+ years!

I am 6'0" tall and large framed.

I was wearing a 50/52 and am presently wearing 40/42 pants (woo-hoo, I can buy this size in any store).

36" right now, down from a high of a tight 44" in just 7 short months.... I would be ecstatic to get down to a 34". changing sizes is fun, but very expensive!!!

life is good!

My highest was 66 waist now depending on the style and cut (meaning enough room for my thighs & glutes) I'm between 40 & 42. I want to be a 34-36 consistently.

36 or 38 would be fine for me. i don't remember last time i was at that, probably when i played sports. was as high as 54/56 so this is all house money at this point (44 now)

If I go by the link to that Men's Health article with the 2:1 ratio then 36" would be my ideal. Good number to shoot for then

I couldn't find the link to the Men's Health article. Do you mind posting it?

When I started out, I was wearing a size 46 waist, and it had to be the stretch elastic waist band.....otherwise a 48 and they were not comfortable.

Now, I can wear anything in a size 33"...and I prefer slim cut......

I can fit in a 32", but they have to be a loose cut and they feel too baggy through the seat and legs.....so 33" slim in both dress and jeans.

Also, my inseam is only 30"....do you know how difficult is it to get 46" comfort waist in a 30" inseam? Had to search the web to buy them online.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
