Completely OT: Stretching clothes

Micheal Artindale · 2005-07-11T06:32:46+00:00

I can't figure out where I can get an answer... I have a hooded sweat shirt that is a little small on me. i did not grow, it shrank. Is there any way to stretch it without destroying it? Thanks, Micheal

All of the above but losing those extra pounds is the

Muscle is heavier than fat. Maybe you were heavier but more muscular
at 16, and now you're lighter but fatter.
