You all are probably both a lot taller than me :) chantelle Chantelle- That is what started this conversation. She is about 10 pounds or so lighter than me if I remember right but her size is near my goal. Our height is the same. I thought that was odd. I wear a 22 and she wears a 14. Just for your information maybe it will help you. I have about 100 pounds to lose. My goal is in 20 pound increments. I don't worry about any more than the current 20 pounds. I just work on doing what I need to do for that 20 and then I get a reward. Maybe with only 40 lbs to go you could have a reward every 10 lbs. I haven't seen sizes you mentions since Jr. High and I was not overweight. Pam W. are you both the same height? I have no idea what either of you weighs, but I'm in that 14-16 size category. I have a lot to lose though. When I was the "right" weight (60 plus pounds less than now), but I don't have sixty pounds to lose....I often wore a size 9 or 10 but sometimes bigger depending on what it was. Main size I wore was probably 9, but those were often tight. I doubt I'll ever wear any of those clothes again, but I would be so thrilled to lose 20-30 pounds and that would be fantastic and in the end would like to get down 40 pounds from this weight. Just ten would be inspiring to me though.... Chantelle yeah…I think it depends on body structure. You all are probably both a lot taller than me :) chantelle

I have 5 kids so most of my size is in my stomach. I can wear size 20 pants except right around the hip /lower stomach area. I do cardio and pilates. I couldn't do pilates for 2 hours either. I am going to change my routine once school starts but I don't know exactly what I will do. I am planning to add weights and pilates to my cardio. I will probabley do Bob Greens 12 week body makeover. It looks good to me. My doctor said two pounds a week was about the maximum that the body would sustain. I will just see what happens. good to hear from you. Pam Hello Pam, Wow, I hope I can lose that much a week. You lose a lot since April, I am happy for you. Most of my weight is in my stomach. I don't think i can do pilates for 2 hrs. when i work out in the gym i do my weights (i take my time ) then i do cardio and before you know it its 2hours lol . I haven't set a goal weight yet, but 20pds at a time sounds good to me. My lowest was a 14 also right now i wear a size 16 but some days i can fit my size 14 the goal size is 9/10, cause if i lose 5 pds a week in a month i will reach 14 with out having to squeeze into my clothes lol Well good luck hope to hear from you soon Susan are you both the same height?
