I wear a size 12 when I'm 150 pounds, and when I'm 191 pounds.

Re: I will always be a size 12
but it probably looks and fits a lot better at 150!
Why care about a dress / clothing size? You must feel better at 150!

Re: I will always be a size 12
it's true, I do feel better. I just wondered if other people had the same thing going on. I work out quite a bit, and I definitely lose inches, but my hips/but/thighs prohibit me from getting into anything in the single digits.Originally posted by Papa Deuce View Postbut it probably looks and fits a lot better at 150!

Re: I will always be a size 12
Yep, I am having the same problem. I lost 20 inches and not changing jean size. I am praying it will catch up!

Re: I will always be a size 12
I've lost 50+ on Atkins and a little before starting Atkins. I have lost pant sizes and now am finally in a 10/12 range. But I still have a belly. Mostly the lower belly that won't ever go away without surgery (4 c-sections!).
If I win the dang lottery that surgery is MINE!
I don't seem to be losing anything else in my waist and I'm still losing weight. I think my butt has left the building!~~~Donna~~~

Re: I will always be a size 12
i have that problem too.
my hips are wide so from the side i am shrinking but looking at me from the front i still look the same. some girls have huge stomachs but wear small jeans because their hipbones are narrow.
i've just gotten to accept myself that i will never be streamlined in that area.

Re: I will always be a size 12
ugh i hear you. i think us hour glass shaped girls got the shaft.
i have big ole childbearing hips which god willing will never be used for anything but attaching legs to my torso. :P they also prevent me from getting in the single digits. i was a size 11 at age 13 and i was NOT overweight at that age at all...
