size 4 women!

Size 4 isn't what Size 4 used to be. At one time, I would have set my goal at a size 6 or 8, but right this second, the clothes I am buying are 6's, and I am still about 20 pounds from my goal weight. I figure that means I'm shooting for a size 4, myself, and maybe smaller.

I have some older clothes I saved because I was determined to wear them again. I can wear them now. They are size 10's.

So it's possible that someone who says size 4 is too small is thinking of what size 4 used to be, rather than realizing women's sizes have changed, and what used to be a size 10 is now a size 6, so a size 4 is probably more like what they would think of as size 8.

I'm 5'5", BTW, goal weight of 130 lb.
