I am 5'7" and I wear a size 10 or an undignified, tight size 8--hey if they button it counts. LOL. I am at 165--My weight has gone up slightly due to increased running.--Inches are coming off scale is going up. Screw the scale.

I agree - screw the scale - I am really mad at mine! How about we all throw them out the window?

If I attempted to throw the scale out the window, I may have to go after it. Yesterday, I was at a second hand store and they had all their clothes for $0.50. I found a pair of leather pants (excellent condition) that were size 12. Those are going to be my goal pants.

I was thinking of doing the same thing...buying a cute dress in a few sizes smaller, for when I reach my goal weight but then I have no idea of what size dress I will need...I guess I will just reward myself with a whole new wardrobe when I get to my size... do you ladies go out and buy brand new things for each size you reach or do are you secondhand shopping untill you reach your goal? I don't have the money so I will have to secondhand ship untill I get to my goal!!!

Sizes are really weird I think it just has to do with each persons body. I just got to the same weight i was before i got preggo with DS and then i was wearing 7/8 almost fit 5/6 and now i can't seem to even squezze into some??? 9's but no way i'm getting into a 7/8 yet I even still wearing my 11's but i don't like extra tight things. But i guess thats what kids do to our hips each time

Re: Are you a size 10 or 12?

I secondhand shop. I purchased a lot of new clothes after I had my son 18 months ago and had to give them away to others. A lot of them still had the tags on them. If something is on sale I will purchase new, but for the most part I buy the best bargains I can find. When I get to my size 10/12 maybe I will buy more new clothing (still on sale), but then again why when I can save money and go to a secondhand store?

*grumbles*
15 pounds down at 215 and I'm still in my same 18's. They are a bit looser in the waist, but I'm no where near the 16's and actually able to move and breath. I seem to be loosing everywhere except right around that magic line where the waistband goes.

I'll probably be hitting up the second hand places for jeans and dress slacks until I'm with in a 5-10 pounds of goal.

Maybe there are some kinds of exercise which would target your problem area?
Try asking in the exercise forum for some advice.
