Pant sizes - is it just my menopot?
Ok, I do read all those threads about what pants sizes people are, and how cool it is to drop pant sizes, yada, yada. But I always get discouraged because I must have the biggest gut on the North American continent.
I'm 5'7", so my height is pretty average. And I'm no kid, and didn't exercise for many years. But I am trying to get rid of my apple.
I have dropped over 50 lbs - at the top, at 280, I was refusing to buy 28s, although I do own several pairs of 26/28s, and not all of them fit that well. It took me into the 250s to get into 24s comfortably. I acquired a pair of 22 Venetia stretch jeans that DD had dieted out of, and they started fitting in the high 230s. Now, I can take them off without unzipping - which is my sign that new pants are in my future (although I do have a nice pair of black wool pants that I'll have taken in around the waist, since I am afraid they are heading for falling off).
Does anyone else have a tummy like mine?
