Hi everyone

Anyone have this problem after loosing weight...didn't have this problem before....

The larger top is TOO big, but the smaller is SKIN tight..same problem with pants
I can't button them or they are LOOSE and dumpy....

    Women's clothes in general are awful this way! Plus, sizing is different with each brand! Grrr....

    Fit the largest part of your body and get a good tailor for the rest

    I hear you!! I am definitely in between sizes now and it really stinks. My 12's are too big...I can still wear them, I just have to cinch them in with a belt and my legs are lost in the pants. When I put on my 10's, again I can wear them withought sucking it in or holding my breath to zip up, I just look like I'm trying to squeeze a size 12 gut into a 10. UGH!!!! I have decided that I am just going to wear my 12's until I look absolutely ridiculous and then move down to the 10's. If I look a little plump in the 10's and get a few..."who does she think she is wearing those tight of jeans" looks then hopefully it wil just motivate me to bump it up a notch. I just have so many more pounds to lose that I won't be able to afford all the "in between" sizes!!! WAH!!!! It's too bad we can't have :tongue: stores for "transitioning ladies" that lets you trade clothes.

    That's what Stacy London says to do on "What Not to Wear":happy:
    On my own body too tight of clothes just makes me look bigger/flabbier/worse

    Has anyone ever thought about some kind of clothing swap. With so many people dropping whole sizes it seems expensive to have to buy new clothes for each size especially if you are not at your goal size or weight. My best friend lost 80 punds and she gave away whole wardrobes along the way. Just an idea.:happy:
