Hey Omega,
Thank you for answering my questions. I am sorry to hear about your medical problem
I hope the doctors will be able to provide you with a concrete diagnosis and take really good care of you. This must be a very stressful time for you ::hug::

It is a difficult question to answer for me. I havent worn jeans in over twenty years and I dont think that I will until I feel that it is a size that I would want to wear.....
I wear UK clothes too so the sizes are totally different as well.
When I was young I was perfectly happy wearing UK size 12 jeans and would probably feel ok in UK size 14. International Clothes Sizes - A converter for UK, US and Continental clothes sizes, plus other useful travel tools
On top of that - losing weight has revealed a rather large bulge at the centre front of my waist that is currently being investigated by the doctors. This totally destroys my waist - in much the same way as happens to pregnant ladies. I suspect that it is a hernia - but am awaiting word from the doctors.
If I wear clothes with a waistband - I need UK size 16 and it is a bit tight. I am currently wearing UK size 14 trousers with an elasticated waist which are a bit loose - and have just bought some UK size 12 tracksuit bottoms which naturally have an elasticated waist and fit just fine.
The bulge has a bigger impact on my waist than my remaining fat. |
