I'm wondering how much size matters... I know I still have a ways to go but I have a hard time believing in 30 pounds that I'll be in the size clothes I've always dreamed about because my butt is massive. Is size on clothing super important to you or does it just something you throw on not worrying about it?
Size isn't a huge deal to me, mostly b/c there is no "set" sizing, so most women are a variety of sizes at any one given time. So annoying! I had a mini-breakthrough today b/c I ordered the next size down in jeans, b/c my 4s were getting too loose. I ordered the SAME brand, SAME cut, SAME color, etc...just a 2. Couldn't get them up to my butt! WTF?? But I have that same brand, different cut in a 2 and it fits fine.
It really just cemented the fact that the sizing is so messed up. I plan to use my comfy 4s as my benchmark...so if they get tight, that would be a red light for me.
Clothes is something I want to look good in. I refuse to let the clothes wear me. Clothing size is not as important as how good you look in your clothes.
Clothing size is really tricky. I certainly have a size I would like t get to or under, but I also know in many ways size is an imprecise measurement, and not something I should focus to closely on.
For example, I was getting new pants the other day and I tried on a pair in the dressing room that fit pretty well. I went back to the shelves to find them in another color (same size and style). And just to double check I held up the pants I tired on to the pants in the other color and the other color was probably 2 inches smaller at the waist. So same brand, size, and style, but they wouldn't have fit.
Clothing size isn't particularly important to me. I would mainly just like to be small enough to be able to find what I want in my size (and not have to pay out the nose for it).
It is important to me! Even though I will not dress in clothing that is too small/poorly fitting to be a specific size, I will cut out the tags so no one knows what size I wear.
I'm excited to eventually be able to go shopping with my friends for clothes without worrying about what size I need to wear!
Meh, it's sort of important. I love knowing I'm now a UK 12/14 instead of a UK 16/18. But clothes are something I wear and try and find the right size. If I was 130 lbs and at my goal weight but I had to wear a 14 to look good, I wouldn't freak out about it! Shops are different anyway, there's no universal size since sometimes I can be bigger or smaller depending the shop.
I'd like to say size isn't important, but I think I'm like you. Only instead of a voluptuous behind, I have a floppy gut! I'm trying really hard not to think about it as I still have at least 20lbs to lose. If I could just insure it all came from my gut I'd be happy! lol
But I don't really care about the size number on the clothes. Wherever it is I am currently at, I just want the clothes to look good on me and flatter. Ill fitting is just ill fitting.
Yes, size matters in that I would like to fit into most national brands. Beyond that, I care much more about fitness. I ended up in a smaller size than I thought I'd ever wear, and it was all with a weight in mind rather than a size. Now, I would like to fit more consistently into that one size, but that's not an issue with me, that's an issue with manufacturing.
Size doesnt really matter that horribly. but i would like to be in the single digits. and i would like to be able to shop anywhere. lol i cant pants at most stores and i cant wait till i can finally buy a pair of dickies!!! As long as those DICKIES FIT i dont care what size they are!
I have found 1 brand of 6s that I fit into.. and 8s are way too big for me at this point.. I Am hoping in the next 10 pounds I will be able to comfortably fit into all 6s ... If not I'll have to adjust my goal.
Its not extremely important to me since vanity sizing is so prevalent every where but I would be lying if I said I didn't get excited when I fit into a size small shirt or smaller jean then usual! I would also prefer to be in single digit sizing because well.... it just makes me feel better lol
Does size matter?
... If not I'll have to adjust my goal.
