According to the charts I found the sizes are only 2 different like an 8US is a 10UK. sorry. Ok my rambling thoughts (remember I am sick): I wish I could be more content with me and not comparing me to others. I have been focusing on being really in shape and muscular/toned and I think it is working, BUT I would like to wear a 4 pants (I wear 4 skirts and 6 pants/shorts down from an 8). I like buying the small sizes since they are always available in the store you know! And yes partly I just want to be thin so my sister-in-law that I hate would not be the only one. Although she recently told me I was looking really good and that felt great! I find now that I am more fit I actually walk like I am fit and that makes me look more fit. If that makes sense. BUT I also find that when I was way heavier I didn't think I was so heavy and then losing 12-15 pounds is like "hey where was all that fat and was I really THAT fat?" But I agree that weight doesn't mean much, especially since scales are so unreliable. Right now I think the weight that charts say I should be (110) is too low but at 115 maybe I would still think I was chubby. So I don't know. I have never had eating disorders or anything close to it so I am just trying to see when I feel I look how I want. I hope all this is helpful (hearing someone else ramble is helpful isn't it? ) Linz didn't you read your scale wrong for a while? I thought that was so funny!
