I'd claim I edited to make flea look silly (though adorable), but I hadn't refreshed my screen to see flea's comment before I edited.

I remember back in school when I used to be pissed that stores were always out of 29w jeans, as I reasoned that surely people must go through that waist size before moving on to the larger ones.
Alas, no such difficulties finding pants in a 40w.

22-24W seems to be a popular zaftig size. I console myself with the knowledge that there's still larger sizes available in standard stores that I'm not big enough to need.
I love the word zaftig.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
12/14 remains the Size Black Hole, as I am discovering yet again.
I am kicking myself for getting rid of all my clothes that were too small for me in the last purge.
They'd fit now.
Damn it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
msbelle is curvy and wee.

I should modify that to say "pants" because my skirts are all one-size, and my tops, well...
I was this weight in 2002, but the cup size was a wee bit smaller.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I'm now an 8, and can wear a 10 in jeans if I don't mind the fit being loose. At 5'4," it's not a tiny size, but I am happy with it. before I lost all the weight this year, I was a 14-16.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously. Although my most unfavorite size was busting-out-of-14. "Regular" sized clothes were too small, plus size were too big.

What is even happening?
I'm 5'9" and size 12. When I lost weight, I thought I looked too thin for my frame when I was shrinking out of size 10.
I'm 5'6" and a size 12 (although like JZ, that can go down a couple of sizes, but I don't think it's gone up...yet). You likely look much more slender than I do, as a 12. When I'm a size 10, I'm just right for me. In sizes 8 and 6, people tell me I'm too thin. I say, "What?" so I can hear it again.
