    Default AKER gun belt stretching?

    Anyone use AKER gun belts?

    I have had mine for a little over a year now, and when I first got it I wore it on the second hole, and once the stretch finally settled I Used the 3rd hole, well, for the last few weeks I have had to go to the fourth hole, and while I have lost approx 15 lbs, I just can't see that being that much of a difference, so is it the weight loss or just the belt stretching more?

    I doubt anybody who's never seen you can tell from your description, but if I lost 15 pounds, I'd definitely have to take up my belt. Why not measure the belt, so you can see if it's stretching? That's far more reliable than asking interweb nerds to speculate.

    Or, is this your sneaky way of telling us all that you've lost 15 pounds?

    You may have shrunk around the middle while the belt remained the same.
    Typically, a man goes down one waist size for every 12 lbs that he loses.
    So you could go from a size 38" waist to a 36" waist if you lost 15 lbs.
    Also, you would have to move up one or more notches on the belt.

    How did you lose the weight?

    I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.
