If it wasn't for my stomach I would also be a 4-6 - but I carry all of my weight in my stomach. I think I can fit into a 6 but it is a little snug around the waist - but 8's are too large for my legs. NOW when I look down all I can see are my girls and then my feet. Nothing in-between :D :) :D There was a time when I honestly thought that I would never be able to do that :o

I would like to lose 5 more pounds I think, and then reconsider. I need to make sure I am fueling properly for endurance.... It will be fun to see what size/weight I am after the brevet I am training for...

Yeah, I made that same decision a couple of months ago. I decided to eat for better performance rather than weightloss. I very quickly notice if I am not eating enough because my riding suffers and it takes about a week of eating enough for my riding to get back up to par.
