The Hawai'i wardrobe
is very simple, nobody
notices if you lose or gain weight.


Nobody notices when you lose or gain weight in Hawai'i  because so many people dress like me. We wear our elastic band shorts with a t-shirt on size too big along with Hawaiian slippahs that would fit half the population.
Wearing an outfit like this makes it easy to gain weight without even noticing, since you have about a 30 lb  variance in either direction.

I have been dieting and recently lost about 15 lbs and nobody seemed to notice, I am still wearing the same clothes, elastic band shorts, t-shirt, head-band and slippahs.

I guess the beauty of  Hawai'i is the style of clothes we wear, you can weigh 160 or 200 and still wear the same clothes. The Hawai'i wardrobe does nothing  for a good body, but can sure hide alot of imperfections.

 Why do you think they call it Paradise! Welcome to Paradise!
