Guest guest Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 I am sooooo darn mad!!!! I have been so frustrated that I am still in a 16. Now granted the 16 is getting pretty big but I just could not squeeze into the 14 I have. Well today we were going to see My in-laws and take them to lunch. suggested that I try on the new slacks I just bought at Wal-Mart. I told him they would not fit as they are a 14. He said he thought they would since my 16's were so loose. I said no they won't I just tried on the jeans a couple of days ago and they don't fit. They are actually loose on my legs and tukus but will not close in the front. He said " Just try " ...so of course I relented and tried them on. I will be damned but no only do they fit......they are loose!!!! I was like how can that be? Must be just a generous size. well I bought 2 pairs of 14's so I tried the other pair on since it is a different maker. SAME THING!!!!! Then I tried the jeans on.....still not happening. Finally I took out the size 12 jeans that I also had hanging in the closet. I buttoned and zipped both pairs and guess what???????? The Lee jeans (Size 14) were smaller than the size 12. Well no wonder I could not get them on!!!!! Now I bought all of these jeans from a thrift store and I thought maybe they mis-marked them so I checked the tag. Nope they say 14. I thought... " hmmmm maybe they are petites? " ...checked the tag again...nope it says regular. So then I got out the tape measure....The " 14's " are 1 inch smaller in the waist than the 12's. Granted the 12's are Guess. I think it is a conspiracy!!!! Lee Jeans is trying to make us feel fatter than we are!!!! So I am a size 14!!!!!! and look out 12's I am coming home soon!!!!!!! OK now I feel so much better!!!! Candi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
