I see this a lot. People lose a lot of weight but, instead of just being proud of their weight loss and their new much smaller size, they fib or outright lie about their new size.
For example, in one of my favorite magazines, a woman went from 301 lbs to 150 lbs. She is 5'8" and says that at that height and weight she is a size 6. So, let me tell you about myself. I am 5'8" and waver between 125 and 130 lbs and I am, depending on the designer, a size 6 or 8. How is she my same height, weighs more than me but wears the same size as or a smaller size than me? No offense! Congrats on your outstanding weight loss but, be proud of your loss and your new size instead of fibbing about it!
One woman went from 334 lbs to 164, is 5'7" and says she is a size 10. That one I believe. But, again...look at her stats compared to the above woman's stats and it makes you wonder even more how she is taller, weights less but wears a considerably smaller size. I know that weight looks different on each individual. But, I still believe that you can tell a person who wears a size 6 from a person who says she wears a size 6 but really wears a size 10.
All I ask is, if you want me to think good thoughts about your magnificent weight loss, don't piss on my leg and tell me it is raining!
