No... I wear any where from a zero to a four depending on the cut and style. It depends on where it hits me on my body to what size it equals out to.

I have a really small frame and I'm narrow all over. If I buy a jacket I have to have the shoulders tailored because I'm so small up top. I also have a really long leg so normal jeans are to short most of the time.

Oh yeah... I have a half inch of hip to much for them! Also the cut is so unflattering it isn't even funny. Even DH, who could care less what I wear, has said, "Honey, the crotch is around you knees... how is that even possible?"

I don't have a problem with nothing, these jeans fit me perfect, they are Arizona and they have a flare leg. I just love them.

In fact now the size 16s are getting a little big for me, but right now they are just gonna hafta be a little big. I don't know what other size I could go get. The little boys size 14 are to short.

Man, I'm surrounded by skinny chics!!
Does that make me the fat friend of the group?
I could fit two of you guys into one pair of my pants!! This is really sad!

I'm kinda shaped like Oilve Oil from Popeye. As far as I know she wasn't a "hottie".

I've got the big head to go along with it too... it's kinda funny. You would think that it would be easy for a girl like me to find clothes to wear, but it's not. Don't even get me started with bra shopping. I think the sales women at Victoria's Secret feel sorry for me. When I go there they hand me some padded foam thing and say, "Here, this should help."

Those are words NO woman ever wants to hear when she's trying to looks sexy.

Oh yeah.. me too... Someone once told me that she did stuff with the dresses for weddings and she said that every woman in the room had something negative to say about their body, no matter what waist size, breast size, thigh size, etc.!!! So true it is!!!

I had a friend who was a double zero.

Zero stands for: No hips, no butt, and no boobs.

I'm actually excited - I also hate shopping for jeans but around Christmas time, hubby and I were walking through a Sears store to get to the inner mall and passed these jeans - $18 per pair (some for men, some for women). We had a look, tried a couple pairs on and he ended up buying one pair and I bought 2 pair. They have a bit of lycra which is nice for us old ladies and I finally got jeans to actually fit me. The sizes were nicely marked to make us feel good about ourselves too
- I got size 3-4 and they are a perfect fit.
These manufacturers aren't all that stupid are they!

It used to mean that... But in lady's sizing a size 10 is actually a 30 inch waist so technically a size 0 would be a 20 inch waist and double 0 something less maybe 18 or so.. Being a heffer like I am, mine would be @#&^#^@ got ya!! I'm not telling!!
But a lot! It'd be a lot! Mens sizing runs standard by inch which is where the 32X32, 36X32, etc. comes from!

i currently only have 1 pair that fit... from Avenue, a size 16. probably the only size 16 on the planet that fits me, too! they have lycra & a drawstring waist, since i'm still loosing weight. that way i can wear them longer! also, this time i got the petites. they're actually a bit shorter than i'd like, but when i get the average length i have to hem them a couple of inches.
so see, SillyJilly, you're not the only 'fat chick' here!
