To be fair, this thread is not called 'how not to dress' or 'wait till you hear about the state of so-and-so', it's about tips on how to dress better for one's shape. If we didn't link some of the comments to size/shape they wouldn't make any sense. Most of the comments here have been perfectly nice and constructive and I for one have found a lot of them very useful.Get to 119lbs! 1/2/09: 135.6lbs 1/5/11: 145.8lbs 30/3/13 150lbs 22/2/14 137lbs 2/6/14 128lbs 29/8/14 124lbs 2/6/17 126lbs

Are you referring to dippychick's post in the BMI thread? If so, then I must agree it was absolutely shocking.Get to 119lbs! 1/2/09: 135.6lbs 1/5/11: 145.8lbs 30/3/13 150lbs 22/2/14 137lbs 2/6/14 128lbs 29/8/14 124lbs 2/6/17 126lbs

Fair enough- I am finding myself caught up in my own beliefs in the exchange with vik and again straying into preachy territory. Must stop it.Are you referring to dippychick's post in the BMI thread? If so, then I must agree it was absolutely shocking.
Seems that dizziblonde became the target of Dippychicks wierd-more-suited-to-MoneySaversArms-humour. Plus I'm getting a bit muddled with who has posted what and where (including self).
