Help! I'm a bit lost in ratios and percentages!
Hello lovely MFPs. I'm struggling here people, and I need your help!

Little things...
I had to put my emergency jeans on yesterday - the ones I haven't worn since I was 15 stone. The ones I replaced, vowing never to wear them again, when I saw how massive and bulgy I was in them in a photo taken at a party. The cloth at the crotch was wearing away because my thighs were so big. They barely held me in, and I…
