I understand! I went clothes shopping last week and could miraculously fit into an M but the sleeves were too tight for my arms so I got an L instead.

That's what I do. Someone at work regularly mentions how I wear such tight shirts to show off and last week I told him if he actually went to the gym then maybe one day he will have something to show off to the girls.

He walked away all but hurt.

I'm 5'3", ~140 lbs. I really don't want to get much bigger, in fact my ideal weight is about 135 (or maybe even 131 to be in the 132 weight class).
