Whoa!!
And I am pretty slim. Really wouldn't want to be much smaller. Size 6 girls look pretty ill most of the time.
So I am having a great deal of difficulty thinking there are people on here that are actually a size 1. :eek: :eek:
And you cant even buy size 4 over here.
I don't get this sizing lark!! |

Everyones body is different, obviously.
I know girls who are smaller than me but are heavier than me, and I know girls who bigger than me and weigh less. I'll never understand why I am a yoyo. |

I have heard that the "nominal" sizes of women's clothing have shrunk over the years, at least in the U.S. -- for example, what used to be a size 6 is now a size 0, and so on. This is because as women grow fatter and fatter on average clothing designers have adjusted their sizes accordingly to be more "flattering."
One example.
U.S. guys' sizes on the other hand still use the old fashioned inch measurements. :p |

you're not anywhere NEAR fat! you look quite healthy and slender from the photos i've seen of you.
m o 0 g - a 00 is pretty much equivalent to the larger sizes in kids/teens clothing. there aren't a lot of women's stores that carry that size. in fact i've only seen it at stores that are really popular among teens/high school students, and you've gotta be ultra in' lanky with no hips to fit into a 00. |
