Corkscrew said:Glad you're getting past the depression Never had it but I know people who have and it's the pits!! Well done on giving up the fags. And you're right, you can't fight all your battles at the same time Once you've conquered the ciggies, you can then concentrate on shirinking xx

I think this is way too judgemental. She said it doesn't look right yet and I don't think it's for anyone else to judge. When I was around 18st4 last year, I'm 5'9 and could fit in loose fitting maxi dresses that were a size 14!
Just think ppl are being a bit harsh with their tone!
You do realise it is Aprils Fool today? Anyone can fit into a 14......

lottiebird said:Hi guys. Tbh I have a size 14 nightie that fits perfect and I'm 17 st 5 and usually a 20!
lottiebird said:Haha!!! No, it's brand new, still tagged. actually from a stash of unworn clothes I got (the rest were all my actual size, no idea how it got in there). Maybe it was mislabelled or it's just a freak occurrence.
ellen83 said:OK, first of all, I don't think fitting into a couple of dresses that are relatively forgiving and them not looking right constitutes being a size 14, I could probably force myself in to smaller sizes but wouldn't wear them out the house cos I'd look like a chicken who'd had an argument with cling film! IMO I can't say I'm such and such a size until my wardrobe reflects that size if you know what I mean. I'm not saying that you didn't get 'into' the dress, and you did admit yourself it didn't look right, but I agree with a previous comment that stated that if it doesn't fit then it's not the right size.
Regarding people's tone being harsh... you read something in whatever tone you apply to it when your reading something like text messages ifykwim.
For the record, I'm 17st 5.5lbs and a size 20/22 at 5'4.
