There is a interesting thread on Spark People it is titled "How much do you weigh and what size do you wear?" It is crazy how someone who weighs what I weigh wears a different size than me...I know alot has to do with body types too...lol

Yes, it is vanity sizing. And what sucks is the sizes seem to change every few years lol.

I have a pair of pants in sizes 18-24(3x) and they all fit! Annoying.

Maybe some brands stay the same. When I got into now 14s last time I could fit my ones from 6 years ago as well.

Exercise goals: Keep doing zumba 4 days a week and try to add in some walking videos on the days I don't have zumba.

I never missed a zumba class, but I only did the walking video once or twice. I'm even going to zumba tonight before I take my son trick or treating

Happy Halloween everyone! Hope you all meet your goals for the month!

I can't say that I'm not a little disappointed I did not make my goal this month,but it is still a step in the right direction.
