There's one size in the US, another in England and a third in Europe and still another in the Middle East - and every brand label seems to have a different variation on one size. Whatever happened to uniform sizing?

Actually I think it is a matter of whether you pack on weight in one spot or very evenly all over. That's what I do - very evenly - and it had its advantages, I don't look anything like as heavy as I really am.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08236329216260906624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24246495.post-1163617944233097722006-11-16T08:12:00.000+13:002006-11-16T08:12:00.000+13:00I can't imagine in what reality 4 - 6 pounds would...I can't imagine in what reality 4 - 6 pounds would equal one dress size! Sheesh! Most books and articles I've read over here tend to use the guideline of 10 pounds equaling one clothing size, but I find even that doesn't work for me. I tend to pack on weight very densely (if that makes sense) so for me to go up or down a clothing size involves gaining or losing more like 15 - 20 pounds!Deb Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03322863748665701618noreply@blogger.com
