Size 12 is A Plus Size? Whateverrr..
Recently I saw a segment on TV that said Size 12 is now considered a plus size. And judging by the absence of that size on store racks, it's also the most purchased size of women's apparel. I'm a size 12 so I can attest to that. Obesity is a huge problem in this country and nothing to be taken lightly. But Size 12 -a Plus size? Come on!
I can go up and down...my son's recent wedding motivated me to lose weight and I'm glad I did it. I felt wonderful! But I'm not a kale, water, yogurt kind of gal. It's all about smart portions of wise food choices and I try to keep that in mind. But I like to cook and I love to eat, especially this time of year. I make no apologies. And I still feel wonderful.
I've continued to work out because I want to be fit. But if my weight fluctuates, I'm not going to beat myself up over it. I have a closet full of 10's, 12's and some 14's so I've got it covered. I've come to the realization that I'm never gonna be a cute little old lady. I'll be more of a handsome old woman and I'm okay with that. As long as I'm fit, and it all works, I'm good. Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm a 12 and have been most of my teen and adult life -- every once in a while for about ten minutes, I can wear a size 10. I have had my size 14 moments as well. What matters is whether you feel good and comfortable in your clothes. I feel just fine!
