Anyone out there in MFPland with a twin who isn't the same size as you? I know I'm not the only one...

    I have a Twin Brother named Paul ( my name is Pauline )...He's slender as me, but ask me 6 months ago - and I would say I WAS the FATTER Twin...:wink:

    I have an identical twin sister. She got preggers and we look nothing alike anymore.

    I know identical twin brothers Ronald and Donald. Donald lifts weights, but his brother just drinks and drinks. Ronald is bloated, red eyed version of his smaller leaner brother.

    I have an identical twin sister.... we may have been the same weight (but different shape) back at christmas time. But I've now lost 36 lbs since then....

    When I started in January, I tried to get her interested & she said she would start... but she hasn't done anything.


    So, I guess I will be giving her my 'fat' clothes....!

    :ohwell:

    Pregnancy has a way of changing a woman :) I have 4 children now...don't think I'll ever see that 1995 weight again.

    Ummm, wow. Is that how you plan on offering them to her...as your 'fat' clothes? If my twin did that to me my feelings would be too hurt to take them :(

    LOL! I love the names...and the visual. I'm cracking up!

    I have a twin sister, identical, I'm mostly always been the big twin, and now with all this hard work, we are sharing clothes again! I still have 20lbs to get her size... I'm much healthier then she is, she's tiny because of stress and does not eat big portions...

    I've got a fraternal twin sister, but we tended to go through phases when we were younger where we looked a lot a like and people still get us mixed up. However, I'm like 6 sizes bigger than her now and weigh 20lbs more.. so I understand that whole twin thing too!

    Well.... I'm quite matter-of-fact (blunt) and so is she.... what else should I call the clothes...
    Nah... my sister will like them, cuz they're very good quality clothes & plus we have the 'waste not, want not' mentality.... things should not be wasted....

    She lives in Germany & I live in London... and at the present I've lost 36 lbs & total of 38 inches over my body & dropped 3 clothes sizes. By the time she sees me it will be quite obvious that I've lost weight & the clothes are too big for me.

    I don't see the problem with the term 'fat' clothes.... at 5'7" and weighing 247 lbs.... I was fat.... (UK size 22 / US size 20) not big-boned....
    I didn't lie to myself then, and I'm not going to now.... I believe you have to be honest with yourself....
