Vanity Sizing

[judecorp]

Okay, so I at first thought it was an Old Navy fluke of vanity sizing, but Jen and I went "school shopping" last weekend so she could get some new fall shirts for work. We hit up the mall and I went into Filene's Basement to look for some deals.

I ended up getting a skirt (another skirt, what is UP with that?) and a pair of dress pants. I guess I really AM a size 12 these days.

That's just WEIRD. When I started taking Metformin in February '05, I wore men's 36s, and usually a women's 16 (sometimes an 18 depending on cut). No exercise, no dieting, SOME better food choices. It's a crazy drug.

I think I've finally stopped losing weight, though, which is good. I started getting concerned when I hit the 30lb mark. My weight at my last IUI was 152.

I never really lost weight from the metformin I don't think. that's great you went down to a size 12. I do think Old Navy sizes larger too. I always seem to fit a size smaller there.

I can't really say for sure because for a while most of my pants were guys' pants and they use measurements, not vanity. I didn't really own too many pairs of women's pants until recently... and most of them were a billion years old because I keep the same clothes forever. I hate shopping.
