God bless vanity sizing! I have never seemed to be able to get down below 160 in my whole life. I'm 5'8" and currently 167lbs. I briefly made it to 158. I wear a size 4 in pants. Tops are all over the place I have very broad shoulders and rib cage so I can wear anything from a size small to an XL or # sizes 10-14. When I was briefly 160 in HS, I was a size 13-14. My mom has always been a size 8, now with vanity sizes, she can take anything from a 4-8. I can actually share some clothes with her. this is a first ever. I'm 41 now and can finally fit into some of my mom's clothes. She's only 5'4" so there were hight issues there too and I take a bigger shoe that she does. I know with exercise that I am probably a lot leaner and have more muscle than I did. my co-workers are shocked when I tell what I weigh and that techicnally am still considered overweight. They say I look like I weigh about 140. I just think they are being kind. Girl,just squeeze into those 6's and they too will soon be too big for you. If I ever lose 5 more lbs, and can squeeze myself into a size 2, I would wear those pants to work and leave the size 2 tags on them so everyone could see. Then, would not be able to wear them again for another 2 months while I left the trauma to my body and crushed intestines heal from the compression injury. You note didn't sound stuck up. It's like the rest of us who have been in plus size land too long and totally missed the vanity size revolution. Keep up the great work! Sue
