Definitely a size 16!
I just stopped at Steinmart and tried on a few pair of pants..... a size 16 works well except I had the camel lips thing going on. I mean.. they pull down.. but when riding up I can see a deifnite outline.
So I didn't buy 'em............. but at least I tried 'em on.
Makes sense.... about 215 lbs and a size 16. I tried on some REALLY nice tops too.. very nice.... size xl.
It's better than the 3x I was in at 270 lbs.. that's for sure! :)

Janina.. know what I just did (this is classic).
Well, I get too upset when shopping for clothes.. so of course I didn't buy anything. Tonight though, I got a bug up my butt and went to my daugher's room. She left a BUNCH of stuff when she moved and I started digging through it. I came up with 4 black pair of jeans, 2 pair of regular blue jeans, a leather vest and a long sleeved black top to go under it... and a few other things. I also located the leather pants and halter she bought in Italy (which is too small, but I hung it in my closet). Her boobs are an F so all of her tops are extra larges.. hahha.. Her pants are all in either a 16 petite, 16 regular or low waist 18 (which are a tad big, but bigger works for me so the rolls don't show as much). Man.. I made out like a bandit!
Ok.. so nothing is fancy, but good enough to dine with David one evening without having to be embarassed by my danskins.
Now I have to come up with the cohonas to go buy a little lingerie if I can figure out what size panties I wear.

Neen...realize that Lori and I are "assless wonders" Our butts are the first to look good in weight loss! You look to have that "real woman" ass....full, sensuous, small waist to set it all off. ((((swoon)))))
I won't speak for Lori, But I'd take your shape any DAY, baby. I hate that I look lightly pregnant - at a larger size, kids would ask me if I was.
Now, I loved actually being pregnant, but let's just say that not too many guys think it's sexy! Most are scared and will bolt.

Congratulations on the success in becoming less of the woman you used to be.
I think the banter back and forth with camel toe and camel lips is hilarious, and creates quite a mental picture. Maybe the toes belonged to a water camel...
It really is awesome to read these posts and see everyone being accountable to everyone and being so honest in their struggles. When I was losing weight it was just me, and due to my cir****tances, (I know I was up to a weight a lot of women want to get down to) I was heckled sometimes. It didn't matter - I KNEW how bad I felt and how sluggish I was. Your goal weight is your goal weight, not the weight the world slaps on your butt.
I interviewed my friend Rodney on a conference call last Thursday. Rodney had a goal of dropping 50lbs for his daughter's wedding and ended up losing 107 instead. His story is so inspiring, and kind of a tear jerker. He said one thing that really helped him "get there" was the support he had. His wife, and a good friend from our company. He got daily calls, emails, and even notes of encouragement. With all that positive support, it makes it easier to stay on track, and of course failure is NOT an option!
So, that said, I will be getting on with my day so I can hit the gym and keep doing those simple disciplines that lead to success. WAY TO GO on your success! You are AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME! Size XL tops! Very cool. One day, if Santa brings me boobs, I may require an XL top.
