Carla,
speaking of Levis, i was finally able to fit into a pair of levis 501s (25inch waist, 30 legth) that i bought 11 years ago in hopes of losing 10-15lbs (i was size 27 waist) but, obviously my weight went way (like 100lbs) in another direction. so i was never able to wear them, even once, in 11 years until this morning. they still look too tight on me so, honestly, i'm not wearing them out yet but I'm 122lbs , bmi 20.9(my lowest yet this morning, 0.5lbs down from yesterday--and i went out and had 2 slices of pizza last night--go figure) and only 7lbs from personal goal of 115--and when i'm 115 those jeans will fit perfectly.
i guess i need to stop boring you and get to the point. with someone as slim as you you may just want to try levis at 25 or even 24 waist--the do carry them everywhere (or at least they did 11 years ago:) with all the post X-Mas sales, check out your local Macys or any other dept. store.
Let me know if you find something. what size are you anyway, a 00? cause you are my inspiration, girl and a confirmation that you can be very healthy and very skinny while remaining at a "normal" BMI range
You are not boring me at all.. I am in a pair of large 27's as that is all I have been able to find so far. I wear between a 0 and 3 in most clothes. I am trying to stay above 120 although the bmi chart says I can go to 112. I have muscle mass that will keep me higher as you can see by my test showing me at 18.
How tall are you.. you seem like you shouldnt go any lower if you are at a 25 pants. I have found some in the boys section but they usually are not long enough. I need a 30 inch inseam. when you go below 28 the inseam seems to go with it. grrr..
Are you checking your bmi with a machine or just the calculator on OH. you may be much lower than you think if you do it with a machine. they have them at gyms. thats how I got my number..
Good luck and you are doing great.. just becareful dont want to get to low and have other problems.

i'm 5'4 and at 122, my BMI is 20.9 and my personal goal is 115 w/BMI 19.8. i also need a 30 inch inseam but was able to easily find 25 by 30 11 years ago. maybe they stopped making them??? that would suck big time for me.
i'm not a complete size 0 yet --i have 0, 2s and 4s in my clothet and i'm probably closer to a 4 on top (i have boobs and i fine with that:)
i was just using an online calculator for bmi. i should do both BMR and BMI as well as body fat % measurment with the mashine--that would be awesome. unfortunately my Baleys doesn't have those tests available (i asked). i should call around other gyms and see how much they'll charge and whether they'd be willing to do it for a non-member.
thank you so much for your advise and encouragement. i eat at least 1600cals/day on average so i'm not too worried about malnutrition or anorexia but at some point may have to increase cals even more to maintain and stop losing
love,
Nat
