Does this seem right?
What is your weight vs. clothing size?
Can you weigh less but still be bigger? I don't know how this is possible. I work out so much. 2 hours a day 6 days a week. Isn't muscle supposed to be smaller then fat?

Stacy you and I are about the same weight and I can wear size 18 in some brands but not Levi's. I bought a pair of Levi's from the Thrift store (like new) and I can get them up and zipped but I can't move or breathe! So I have decided that I can't wear them until I lose some more weight. I really think Levi's run a little smaller.
Also some of my 18 jeans are tight and some are really loose. But I can't wear a size 16 yet that is for sure. I have very curvy hips and bottom so I think that is the reason I have to have larger sizes. I have to get my jeans big enough to get over my bottom and then they stick out in the back.
Oh well, I don't care I like having a curvy body
Don't worry as we lose more weight and get closer to our goal the smaller sizes will happen too.
