I am really confused with sizes. Wouldn't a US size 2, equivalent to a UK size 4 be bordering on anorexic?
I would love to be a UK size 10 waist down (think I am already there upwards) but I am very hippy so don't think that will ever happen.
Size has nothing to do with an eating disorder. A person can be anorexic and not a size 00, 0, or 2. They can be bigger, in fact. There are bodies of all shapes and sizes, and if someone can get to that size in a healthy manner and maintain it, it means they're healthy, not suffering from an ED.
Yup, and size 2 doesn't looks the same on everyone, just like size 10 doesn't (or whatever else). At size X means visible ribcages. For other people, it might make them have love handles. For others their upper body could be very slim and there hips round. Someone else might have wide shoulders and very slim legs.
I've definitely seen size 2s that look too skinny and others that look healthy and fit.0 -
you can totally go for this girl....youre crazy to think you cant !0

Iam a size 3-4 now, but I can fit in some 2s. I am happy with this size as I have been anywhere from a 00 all the way up to a 16. I feel very comfortable where I am now.0
-
I look the best when I am a 4/6. I would never want to be smaller. I would also be comfortable as an 8. But 4/6 is my ideal.0

I am currently a size 22-24. I would love to go back in time and be a size 10-12. That's the smallest I have ever been in my life. I have a long way to go,but I know that I will get there. This journal is keeping me honest of what this journey is about. Good health and changing into a better lifestyle of making good food choices for myself. I want this so badly, and I'm praying everyday to have success. It's not easy. To plan your foods a week in advance and exercise everyday.!!!! But it is critical to have the success I want. So please keep up the motivation and support for each other.:happy:0

size 8 but would be happy at a sz 10
same here!0 -
Honestly, I don't have a specific size that I want to be. Mostly, I just want to be healthy. Plus, I've never been small, so I have nothing to compare it to. In my adult life, I have never been below an 18. I'm getting close now, down to a 20.0
-
A Healthy size 8 -10 range would be great. Most of all though, I just want to be comfortable in my own skin.0

I heard from a fashion guy on tv the other day that a size 6 today is what 15 years ago would be a size 2 now. That US clothing industry has lowered the sizes to make us feel better. Made a bunch of since to me since I am the physical size as when I got married and the same weight - but I'm now a size 0 and I was size 6 then. I used to model petite clothing as a size 4 when I was in my 20's, I"m short, "big boned" and muscular. I would rather clothing size be more reflective of actual fit, as I'm tired of buying clothes in the teenage girls section.
Someone asked measurements for a size 0 - I buy size 26 jeans if buying on waist size, these still tend to be a little big.0 -
Right now I'm in between a 10 and 12. I was a size 14 at my heaviest. I would love to get down to a 6 or 8. Not sure how small my bone structure will allow me to get.0
-
6 to 8 would work for me. That's what I was until a few years ago. I am currently a size 12 (barely! Ugh).0
-
My first goal is just to get down to a single digit. We'll see from there. I'm thinking a 6 but as long as I feel good I don't really care about the size.0
-
I would love to wear an 8.. I currently wear a 10 i have hips and butt so i dnt think i can get into a lower size than 8 but my dream would to be able to wear 5-70
-
I am finally getting comfortable in my size 8's. I'd like to be a size 6.0
-
Depends on the shop - no standard sizing these days. I have looked at 2 items of clothing in one shop, same items, supposedly same size from labels but at least 1 inch difference at the waist. That, my friends, is not cool but means I really don't even think about clothes sizes. What size do I want to be? Smaller than I am now0
-
Size 8. I'm 5' 6" and currently a 12. The largest I've been was about eight years ago when I was squeezing into a 16.0
-
sizes are weird for me. i started as a 32. now....i wear a medium tops, and pants i wear size 8 dress pants, size 10 jeans, size 12 skinny jeans, dresses i wear a medium for some and a size 12 for others.....i'm all over the damned place lol. i want to be an 8 as my largest size if i stay in all these variety of sizes.0
-
I just want to fit back into my old awesome jeans that show my *kitten*-ets.0
-

-
Im 5'4.5 and currently 146lbs. I fit comfortably in a UK size 12. I would love to be UK size 8 but would be happy being a comfortable 10.
Another 6lbs to loose and hopefully I can then be a 10!0 -
I officially said like a 12-14 but really I want to be like an 8, I just don't want people to think I'm stupid for thinking I could go from 24 to 8.
Don't be silly no one thinks your stupid for having a goal... with hard work and determination you can get there... Don't ever think you can't. :flowerforyou:0 -
Same here, good luck too you! :bigsmile:0
-
My goal is to get into a 6 comfortably and stay there! I'm 5' 2" with 30 more pounds to lose!0
-
I'm a size 9/11 right now and I'd love to get to 3 for a start and possibly below that I have a pretty tiny bone structure and am 5'3" so I think i'll be able to make it0
-
realistically size 9-10 but an 8 would be super great bc I am 5"4, 210 lbs in 14-16 and feeling like i am miss piggy !0
-
I'm a size 10-12 (UK sizes, so I guess a 6-8 US sizing?) right now, and I'd like to be 10 all over, maybe an 8. I have pretty broad shoulders, and I know that if I lose lots of weight and work out (which I'm doing at the moment) I get to the point of looking out of proportion, so i suspect I'll stop at a 10.0
-
I'd like to be between 8-12, so I've got 4-6 more sizes to lose!0
-
I want to be a proper UK size 10. At the moment I am a 10 on top, and a 12 (just!) on the bottom. Would be nice to be in proportion because it makes things like dresses very difficult! I'm always battling with gaping around the neckline!0
-
a size 2!0
