Default How Important Are the Larger Sizes?

I have a design that covers the entire shirt and the ONE printer in my area who can do what I need says he cannot do the XL and 2XL sizes, because he cannot create the large size screens and does not have the large dryers (he does not have a belt printer, which would be ideal, so he is trying to do the design on screens, which will not reach the ultimate edge of the shirt). He can only do S/M/L, which I might be happy to settle for until I'm off the ground and can afford to pay HIS outsource the exorbitant fees he requires to do the larger sizes. My question: What are the most widely sold sizes, and can I afford not to carry the extra large sizes when starting out? I know I would be losing some potential income, and have been advised by some that 'people are bigger these days', and that I should supply all five sizes. Anyone out there have any advice? Thanks.
