i LOVE IT
I often wonder if i still look fat but am too scared to ask
Being 15kg still off goal makes me feel like i've failed but that website has actually made me feel lots and lots better

Aussie sizes are different:

US Size 0=Aussie 4 (UK 2)
US Size 2= Aussie 6 (UK 4)
US Size 4= Aussie 8 (UK 6)
US Size 6= Aussie 10 (UK 8)
and so on.

At 5'3" and a size 6 (10) hourglass figure, those bodies look about right for me!

It's a great way to see other people of similar height and size! I feel quite reassured.

Thanks for the link! Very interesting that so many bodies that weigh similar amounts can be such different sizes. Nothing is standard - wish the clothes designers/makers would realise that.

That was really interesting. In a way I still identified as the person of pre opus size. Though it was quite "reassuring " to put my current weight and height in to see the results.
I think it might take some time to readjust my perception of my size.

Thank you for that

What an awesome site... I didn't put anything in for size, and went omg when the photos came up... But when I put my proper sizing in I felt a hell of a lot better about myself!!

Buttefly, I reckon you probably look better than you give yourself
credit for!! Make sure you had the height and weight converted properly
and remember a US size 10 is a 14 (I think) Aus...

I loved this site... I looked at my starting weight (wow), then my
weight now, my next mini goal and then my final goal weight... My weight
now looks how I thought I did, so that made me happy :)

It was interesting. I look about on par with everyone else my height and weight, and looking at my goal, they're not actually that much smaller to where I am now (though my goal is only about 11kg away now anyway). I might actually go back and look at them the same weight as me pre-op... that might be interesting...

I found this site helpful to look at what my goal will be etc - you just need to convert the lbs to kg and size chart to aus.

I have a bit of a issue of what thin looks like as i am sure other also do - i was alway told i was fat when i was size 8-10.
