    You're definitely not alone. I started at a tight 24W. It was so frustrating I was trying to buy a pair of capris and tried on a 24W and they wouldn't even zip. I've been on MFP about 30 days now. Clothes are a little looser but I'm still a 24W.

    I started at a tight 18, down to a 0/00. Yes it can be done and NO, a zero is not too small for a small frame 5'4" female!

    Thank you for this!

    I was a 24+ in April (if the 24 didn't fit I didn't buy them, but I was probably a 26!) I've lost 51# in 6 months and now I am a size 20!! I plan to be a size 18 by Christmas time - I might buy myself a few new things so I look nice for the holidays. I have a family reunion & most people haven't seen me in over a year. I'm literally swimming in most of my clothes, but I'm making due for now.

    You can do it - stick with it - if you slip a day, just get right back to it & don't beat yourself up over it!!

    It took me losing 30# before I went down to a size 22. The smaller the sizes get, the less weight you have to lose to go down a size!

    I started at a 24 in May of 2013. I am now in 14 which is a little big. 12 are still a little tight for my liking. Co-workers want me to wear the 12. I guess I have been covering up weight for so long, I don't like the idea of clothes fitting close so I can't bring myself to wear them yet. Maybe in a few more pounds.

    Before I started MFP I was a 20/22, I started MFP when I was an 18/20, now I'm 12/14. Believe me, you're not alone.

    I started at a 24W and my 22Ws are now fitting the way they should, and the 20Ws are too tight but zippable.. (haha)

    I started at a 24 and am now 18 or 16.
    I'm guessing I will be an 8 when I'm at goal.

    I started at a size 24-26. I am not a size 12. Its totally doable! Takes time, dedication, and motivation. Took me a year to lose about 100 pounds.

    I was a size 22 when I started *cough*15 years ago*cough*

    I've had stuff get in the way, mostly four more babies along the way but slowly I've been getting where I want to be. This last April was another fresh start at a size 18 and I'm down 39 pounds since then.

    You can do it!

    Started at a 22/24, now I'm in a 14/16. It can be done. I'm short as well, so I was as big around as I was tall I think
