From Claire, Age 19 - 06/11/08 - IP#: 64.131.205.xxx Click here to reply Ht. 5'4", Start: 210 lb, Today: 176 lb, Goal: 140 lb - Ok so I was just wondering. Since like last year I've gained 18 lbs right. I remmeber going to the doctor and hearing that horrid news!:( Anyway, the thing is..all of my clothes still fit, so what exactly does that mean? I don't get it. I thought everything would've gotten tighter but everything fits just as is it did before, so what does that mean? I don't know. I'm confused, still I hope to lose that 18 lbs gain andd an extra 2..to make it 20!! I just didn't understand the whole clothes-still-fitting thing lol. Not like I DON'T want them to fit, I just want to know why it is the way it is. Ok, going now. Good luckk guys, I'm rooting for you all!! yes I am =)
Reply from Nickkk, Age 16 - 06/13/08 - IP#: 68.198.216.xxx Yea i know what you mean exactly! I gained much more than you i was only about 135lbs and wore a 32in waist and i was still wearing the 32in waist at 200lbs with it only being slightly tight. THing is as a guy i got a gut when i gained weight so it really just like sticks out over the pant line. the shirts are what got me, i always wore a small shirt and gaining a gut like that ... lol well if i wore a small at 200 it wouldn't cover it all! btw i'm 181 now but was down to 162 a few weeks ago and all clothes stayed the same. e-mail me if u want!

Reply from Flower Fawn, Age 15 - 06/11/08 - IP#: 71.175.123.xxx Yes, it could be muscle and/or water weight; and don't forget that it can go to places like your face or arms that are not really noticeable, which is good of course! I'm glad your clothes still fit though, and don't worry you WILL loose 20lbs! We can DO IT!! :)
