yup, they had two....

my point was this girl doesn't look plus sized to me... i think I heard she was around a size 8 but she doesn't even look that big...

Whitney on Cycle 8 said in her exit interview that she was a size 8-10: not exactly what I'd call "plus-sized".

[Marilyn. 340]

nowadays, it seems like plus-sized is anyone over a size 1 or 2

The average woman in the US is now a size 14, as I recall (but I will check!).

It's no wonder that more and more 6 and 8 year-olds are becoming anorexic when the media still portrays a size 8-10 as "plus-sized" instead of "perfectly normal and healthy".

Thanks for the reminder, Marilyn! I knew I wanted to watch Kitchen Nightmares at 9, but couldn't remember what I had scheduled for 8.

I wish I was a size 10 or 11.... I think I looked my best at that size....

I can't imagine bing anything lower then that I would look like a walking toothpick

they think bigger women aren't concerned with fashion or how they look... I have seen a lot of stores where their plus size department just had ugly t-shirts and sweats etc.... us bigger women like to get dressed up too....

they same thing with shoes.. I have big feet between a size 10 or 11.. I have a heck of a time finding cute shoes...

Anything over size 0 is disgustingly fat.

She's not plus-size. Even they said yesterday she's ''normal'' size. I can't imagine any normal person thinking she's plus size.
