Hey! Where are you from? I remember not being able to squeeze into a pear of size 18 jeans I bought from Newlook that I loved when I was 19. I then had an amazing pair of jeans from Next that didn't fit for long either. I am now 27, plus size clothing back then was made for frumpy 50+ The Americans were way advanced in plus size fashion than we were here in the UK.
Luckily plus size fashion has caught up and is actually....... fashionable! But I cannot wait to be able to walk into any shop and be able to pick up an outfit! I am currently a UK 20/22 on jeans, then a range of anything between a 24/26 on top.
Sadly when it comes to losing weight, some people are naturally slim and can burn off a bad diet, but the fact that you are overweight, means that like many people, you are not one of those easy burners. Like me and like a large portion of the world, you will need to change your lifestyle and diet to keep a slender silhouette. You need to take baby steps towards altering your diet that will work for your own body. I cannot join most diets that are advertised, as shakes and soups bloat me, WW and Slimming world don't teach you anything about food, cabbage soup diet made me gain, weight loss pills boosted metabolism only, the fasting diet makes me want to eat more than I usually would on the non fast days and I couldn't get in enough protein for fresh vegan.
Try something to suit you
I hate being fat
