Does Size Matter?

Kat, I do the same thing when I need a piece of something sweet, but my favorite flavor is chocolate peanut butter.

Every time you chomp on a berry chew, somewhere a bunny rabbit dies.

I can live with that.

Love, love, love!  You took the words and sarcasm right out of my mouth and fingertips.

Literally made me spit out my water.

Even my husband was able to find a pair of pants that were too big at his "normal" size.  He got to got down to a 35 instead of a 36.  We don't get to pick our clothes by the inch, we have to go from 8-10-12 and all of the manufacturers use a different measurement.  It's frustrating.

Of course size doesn't matter!  Only, well yeah,  of course it does. 

It is a head game and can be so frustrating.  I find myself looking for clothes and seeing all these large and x-large sizes and thinking Why didn't I know to look here when I was bigger?  I always assumed that I had to shop in the large lady stores or departments.  Who knew that on the rack at TJMax I'd find the best clothes for half the price in a size 18/20?

I have been at goal now for a while and I dropped to 20 lbs below it for  6 months so I have "skinny" clothes in some ridiculous sizes.  I will say that once you are below 150lbs (I'm 5'4 so this is my reality) that every 10 pounds makes a HUGE difference in what size I wear.  And I can wear micro sized clothes at 120lbs but at 125 I am in a size 2.  At 130 lbs I'm in 4 and  at 135 lbs a 6/8.  

When I was MO - I could gain or lose 30 lbs and not know it because my clothes fit the same. 

It's easier when you are at a stable weight and you settle on a few brands that work for you.  But it is crazy and can waste a lot of time trying to figure out what fits.  

OMG, that is SO TRUE

I could have written this exactly.

Yep, I could have written this post!
