Often Surprised About Sizes

k2d4p

I am 5'6'' and I weigh 147. I wear a size 6. I have no reason to lie or exagerate. I have worked to hard and lost too much weight to make something up.

I do, however, find myself curious sometimes when I read stats of some others. I don't let it bug me though because they are not hurting me.

Like me lying on my driver's license. If I can lose six pounds, I won't be lying anymore

Just wait until you can't wait to renew your license because the LIE you put on there is now 20 pounds more than you actually weigh. [: What a rush"

My driver's license says I weigh 210. I can promise you that is not true.

It really does come down to shape and distribution of fat/muscle.

For instance im around 245 now and a uk 18. My mate weighs 30lbs less than me but is a uk size 22/24. (which is what size i was when i started!) The main difference is shape. Im very much an hourglass figure (11 inches difference between my waist and hips and chest) but shes an apple and carries all weight on her stomach. Ive also been doing alot of exercise and although everything is covered in fat underneath it all there is quite a bit of muscle!

I dont really pay attention to what size i am its more about how i look and feel!

sizes mean nothing. My best friend is about 2 stone/ 2.5 stone heavier than me, and the same height yet wears a uk 12. Im a uk10.
