Ladies - What Size Clothes to Cross Your Legs?

[MissNEWBooty 0]

I was a size 14 when I first could cross my legs. I did it without noticing and I looked down and started to cry. I haven't been able to do that in a long time!

As I sit here at the computer desk in my size 16s my legs are crossed. Who would have thought it would be a big deal? I always show it off to my friends. "Hey, guys check this out! See, my legs are crossed. Cool right?" :nervous They thinkg I'm an idiot!

Thin people totally don't get how big of a deal this is to us. I started at 18/20 and am now 14/16 (3 months from surgery). I can comfortably cross my legs now. One direction is more comfortable than the other, though. I try to remember not to sit too long like that because it really isn't the best way to sit for circulation and stuff, but when I am somewhere that I have to sit and my legs can be seen, it's really cool to be able to cross them in a ladylike way!

Truly one of my first big NSV's.

This is a fun conversation. I'm a 16 and days of crossing my legs comfortably are closer every Sunday when I wear a dress to church, but, my foot hits the back of the chair in front of me. I'm waiting for it to swing comfortably towards the floor. I thought I was the only one that thought of these crazy things.

i started out at a size 26/28 and now i am down to a 22 and i can cross my legs and i feel good that i can cross them!!!!!!

I could always cross my legs but I am tall. I imagine the shorter you are, the harder it is.

I was a size 14/16 last year and could cross my legs uncomfortably, and now I am a 20 and don't even bother. It bothers me a lot that about 5 months ago I could if i had to. now i feel like a man in a dress. Isn't this board great! I could never ever admit that to others. I have a hard time admitting it to myself.

I can't remember the last time I was able to comfortably cross my legs like a woman. I always cross them like a man does because my belly and thighs get in the way if I try it the other way. I can do it, but my legs start to hurt after a couple minutes from the strain of trying to hold them together.

Seriously, I've read this on Weight Loss Surgery websites for years - but don't get it.

Even though I was obese, I never was unable to cross my legs so I have no idea of at what point it becomes impossible. Of course I'm really tall and had really long, thick legs. So even when I was obese, maybe I was good at hauling all that flab and just moved them around really well.

Interesting thread.

I think Fauxnaif and NewSho really hit upon it. Weight isn't the only factor, height has something to do with it too.

I am in the middle.... I use to be able to cross them at a larger size then others who were much shorter then me, and while "fluffy" wearing a smaller size then me. However, at the size I am now, I couldn't do it. At the same time my bestfriend, who has me by about 5 in. in height, yet wears the same size as I do, can.

As for me, I can't wait until I can comfortably cross my legs (without them sticking a mile high) again, too!

This is definately a goal for me too. I fantasize about wearing a pretty skirt with tall high heel boots and being able to sexily cross my legs... Being vertically challenged, I have a ways to go...

I tend to think that flexability plays a role as well. I mean of course when you have rolls in the way...flexible or not there will be things you can not do. I can cross my legs but I can not double cross them anymore and that I am looking forward to. Well that and Yoga Poses!
