Vanity Sizing, Progress, and Motivation All in One Picture!

Someone posted a thread yesterday about vanity size clothes which was hilarious because of all the confusion it causes when designers do this to us. Someone else posted a progress thread with some different jeans that I just adored. So here is my contribution to the hilarity (and okay, a bit of a brag on how far I've come and a reminder to me on how far I have to go!).




The horrid print that could easily be mistaken for a tablecloth is a 3x, and the waistband was snug. I was wearing that last year when I joined MFP. The next is my vanity jeans, they claim to be a 10, but since I can now get them off and on without unbuttoning them, I'd say they're a 12. The next pair is the 11s I took today's muffintop motivation shot in. They're 10-11-ish. The next pair claims to be a 9 and probably is, the pair after that claims to be a 10 but is probably a 7-8. The black skirt claims to be a size 4 petite, it's probably a 6. The next pair are size 6 jeans and probably are. They never fit great on me because I bought them when I was skinny-fat, so they are my final goal jeans. The last pair claims to be a 6 but pretty sure they're a 3-4 since even at my skinniest I never got those zipped (bought them without trying them on at a thrift store). I'm not sure I ever want to wear those.
