Moneypenney, do you mind handing me that jar from the top shelf? Also, could you open it for me? Thanks. Our house is funny because both Mr. Penny and I are tall and we put things at heights that none of our guests can reach. Oops

1. I was wearing a 4, but quite snugly. 27-28 jeans. 2. Same. I lost about 10 pounds before the wedding, then started antidepressants and stopped working out and gained it back. I carry weight in my belly, so I am still thin, but look pregnant. 3. No, liquor does. Before my daily wine habit I was always under 120. 4. Its not an age thing, more of a style thing. As long as it doesnt look like teen clothes. 5. I felt my hottest from 28-31. And I took advantage of that and had lots of fun.

1: What size were you when you met your FI?8 I think2: What size are you now?4 - 6 usually, depends on designer3: Do you think being happy makes you gain weight?no, when I'm really happy or excite, I lose my appetite4: How old is too old to wear junior sizes?when they don't fit properly or the style is too young5: What age would you like to stay forever?35 but then I would have missed out on almost 15 great years:(

It's hard to answer these questions given we have a different sizing system, but anyway:1. I weighed about 5lbs less than I do now.2. As above, I'm about 5lbs higher, although I have lost a bit of weight recently- I actually gained more like 10lbs after we first started seeing each other, but then with some stress earlier this year, lost a fair amount of that. I was a size 0 in the jeans I bought in the states a couple of months ago (which I found totally bizarre and ridiculous, because here I am a size 8- although clearly differing size system). 3. Being happy + going out of lots of dinners + cooking + wine + cheese = weight gain, I think. 4. I don't really understand your sizing system- junior sizes as in kids, or as in something else? When I was in the states, I tried on bunches of clothes, and I found that I was a particular size in junior jeans at levis, and a size smaller in jeans from CK which I can only presume aren't junior sizing. Does that sound right? I wasn't sure if it was just variation between sizing in brands, or if the 'junior' mention meant something.

I was so confused by sizing I forgot to answer #5. Looks wise, I think I'd like to have frozen at 25 forevermore. I'm only a year older now, but the frown lines I have whenever I read (thanks to straining eyes) are becoming really pronounced on my forehead.... not to mention the grey hairs that I keep finding! :P

sun - junior sizing is cut for teens and are numbered with odd sizes. Less hip room and all that jazz. Although, in the last 10 years the sizes have changed. I was a 4 in Gap clothes in HS. My body is considerably different now and I'm a 6. I kept some old clothes and holy crap are they tiny. Stupid vanity sizing. I'm probably an 8/10 in real, older sizes. My wedding dress was an 8 which I think is accurate.

Ok, well that would totally make sense. I fit the size 1 in the junior, and I got a pair of size 0 jeans from CK (which you've just reminded me, I need to get hemmed! They are very cute but I haven't been able to wear them yet as they're far too long- and I am not super short, either, but these jeans are way too long on me.

1: What size were you when you met your FI? 22: What size are you now? 4-63: Do you think being happy makes you gain weight? For some people. I attribute the weight gain to laziness on my part, plus it's been 4 years and when I was 20, I had no hips4: How old is too old to wear junior sizes? No age is too old to wear the sizes; some styles aren't appropriate for everyone, though5: What age would you like to stay forever? I wouldn't choose not to age; I want to experience life at all ages
