What you might note is that i only print nutritional stuff that can be evidenced and it can be evidenced very easily indeed that calories in vs calories out is flawed to the extreme as is any diet that revolves around calorie counting.

By that link i'd be a size 10 under the Connie Crawford chart, much closer than the top chart :eek:
The top chart shows the same euro size (38) for a ten to twelve as the Crawford chart?

"Misses" is the standard adult woman size chart.

Ready-made clothes sizes vary from shop to shop. At least with dress patterns, you know the actual measurements the patterns are based on.0 -

You are posting unverifiable opinion. You are claiming you post verifiable facts.
