I remember in middle school being a size 12. That's the smallest I remember being where I cared about clothes. Ever since then, my size has been increasing. I just can't wait until I lose enough to fit into small sizes (my dream size is a 10, which is a good size for my height).
Anyone else not used to being in small sizes and can't wait to get there?
I was in small sizes when I lost a lot of weight before, but it was near long enough!
The smallest I have been is a 10, and those were tight. Right now my goal is 170lb, which would comfortably put me in a 10 (I think) but I want to try to go smaller than that...but one step at a time!
I'm with the previous post on this one - I've never in my adult life worn a 'normal' size. Even when I did Atkins 10 years or so ago and before kids, I lost 25 pounds down to about 215 at my lightest, and that put me in a 16-18 pant.
I would DEARLY love to wear size 14 pants (my upper body is considerably smaller - probably a 14 or close to it now) and be able to buy pants anywhere! But it would also feel weird to me as I've never ever been able to shop at non-plus places.
I haven't been in anything below a size 10 since college (so 7+ years ago) and even then I still wore a lot of 10's. My goal is to be in an 8 or below but it's been such a long time since I've worn an 8 that it's hard for me to imagine.
I honestly don't ever remember wearing a smaller size. Even in high school I wore an 16/18 (Of course sizes have changed so much since then! and I'm STILL in an 18, and bigger than I was then!) So I can't WAIT to be able to wear a size 10....or maybe even an 8!!
I use to wear a size double 0 when I was a freashman in high school then I was a 3/4 when I graduated high school. I'm not trying to get back to a double 0 (ugh). I looked sick.
my goal is non-plus sizes. I am top heavy and thick through the middle so I'm hard to fit in general and wear much different sizes top and bottom. 1X on top and a 15/17 on the bottom as long as it's low rise - my hips are small enough to fit into that size but I'd never get it anywhere around my waist if it was high waisted. A misses 16 doesn't really fit my waist either but is too big everywhere else.
I'm not sure how it will play out in terms of fitting into a non-plus sized top - there is still a big difference between a 1X and a misses XL so I think I'm looking at another 25 lbs minimum for that move, and I'd prefer to be no bigger than a large if possible (as long as it's cut with enough room for the girls!). So I could end up with some pretty crazy small number on the bottom in order to be the size I want to be on top! Not necessarily as small as others might want but if I ever got into a say a 9, that would feel crazy small to me!
I cannot wait to fit into smaller sizes! The smallest I've ever been in my adult life is a size 10, and that only lasted about a month before I gained like crazy. I would love to know what it feels like to have a size in the single digits!
