I'm currently a size 18 and fed up of my unhealthy lifestyle. I'm unemployed and rarely leave the house.
I despise going shopping for clothes because I can never find trendy clothes that look my age (21). I've been on numerous of Plus Size Websites, and the style of clothing on there just isn't me. I always get down about wearing boring clothes that just make me look alot older hence why I don't like leaving the house.
Republic and BANK clothing have some really stylish stuff (Cuffed chinos with braces, cuffed jeans etc) that would look really nice tooked into my Adidas Hi Top trainers however, the sizes are 14 and the ocasional pair of jeans at a size 16.
It's coming up to Christmas, and because of my lack of clothes, I will be getting some new gear which is going to be incredible hard. I've recently joined the local Gym and I'm hoping I could go from a size 18 to a size 14-16 by Christmas.
My Question is, is this a realistic goal? How much stone do you need to lose to go down a size in jeans?

In tops, I am a size 26. (Big boobs). Again, the clothes on the Plus Size Websites are just not me. The hoodies are awful with glitter patterns, and rubbish patterns in general.
The coats and jackets are dreadful! I had a chuckle and thought I wouldn't be seen dead in any of these. Then the chuckle turned to depression. It's really hard finding things. I'm not really a girly girl either.
Again, BANK and Republic have some gorgeous hoodies and jackets.
I know I need to seriously slim down.
