Each blogger has their usual clothes size displayed on their photo and below/above (depending) you'll find their blog link and height; some have also volunteered to share their bra size and weight as I also wanted to demonstrate the differences relating to these. I actually forgot to include myself; you've probably seen enough of me anyway, but for the record I'm a size 22-24, 5'7", 42B and currently 20st 10lbs. I share a clothes size with a lot of people, but (generally speaking) not a lot else.
I also don't look like any one of the beautiful women below, because we are all unique. We are not just numbers.

This is a really good post, thanks for writing it. Although I'm not as hung up on numbers as I used to be, I still sometimes get obsessed by them, especially my weight. It's so weird; I'm (mostly) fine with the way I look and I have learned to love my body, but my weight still bothers me. It's just numbers on a scale - why should it matter if I'm happy and healthy?
ReplyDeleteI look at these photos and all I see are beautiful, gorgeous, sexy women. Hopefully, one day I'll be able to look at myself the same way and think "screw the numbers"!
Thank you! It's drummed into us that 'numbers matter' and it's very difficult to unlearn the lessons that we're taught, but it can be done :) just take it slowly x
DeleteFabulous post Betty. I'll share it! Thanks for including me. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks lovely & thank you for participating!
DeleteAmazing post, It's great to see the variation in all the stats in the ladies all wearing the same size as me. (22) I don't match any of them, which is absolutely fine.
ReplyDeleteIt's ingrained in a lot of people that numbers matter and we're all chasing the same thing, when in reality we are all so different and would be a strange world if we all looked the same, dressed the same, wore the same size.
It's good to highlight it and it was a really lovely post xx
Thank you! It would be very strange indeed. I'm really overwhelmed with the popularity of this post x
DeleteThis is a really fab post! It's really interesting to see so many different people who wear the same size. All beautiful in their own right! 😊 xo
ReplyDeleteThank you! It's been really insightful x
DeleteSuch a good idea. I love looking at everyone's stats and seeing how different we all are. But still FABULOUS, obv ;) xx
ReplyDeleteYes! The fabulousness cannot be measured :D x
DeleteI so needed to see this. I am battling with my weight, my parents are constantly on at me for being fat, I look in the mirror and can't bear what I see, I hate my photo being taken, all because I've put on a lot of weight recently. It's crazy. I need to see that my body is more than a number, it's not a number at all, not the number on the scales, or on my clothes. It deserves love. Hopefully soon I will learn to love it.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that you're having a difficult time and that your parents aren't being supportive, but glad to hear that this post has been beneficial. Body positivity/acceptance can be a long journey and we all have set backs, but it's definitely worth it; I wish you all the best on your journey x
