I'm a size 18... I went trough my wardrobe and tried on some clothes from my multi-size wardrobe, hoping that a size 16 would fit me ok, now that my clothes are less thight on me. Geez, it was thight and I was not looking good in it. But... My sizes 18 fit me like a charm. Must be that it was thight before and that I was really a size...20... So they must be looking good on me now. Yesterday, first day that someone said that I lost weight (my cousin who' battling with her weight also). Nobody else... But then again nobody told me that I was gaining weight all these years. So it's ok to be discret, It's fair both ways, isn't it?

I went through exactly the same thing when I began losing weight 6 years ago. (at 5'2", I was 215 pounds on 1/1/2002.) I was honestly a size 20--still clinging to the 18's! I was alarmed at how comfortable my 18's felt after a few pounds dropped off. Then as I lost, I realized how big of a difference that there is between "women's" sizes and "misses", then later the difference between "misses" and "petites"....whooo! Celebrate these little victories...be sure to say thanks when other's compliment you and ACCEPT IT! I always have had a problem with that. Others will catch on as you melt away ( and shrink into those smaller sizes!)
