Where do you shop ElJay? I want to know where these rack loads of sizes 2-6 are.
Yeah, that's the way it goes.
I do most of my actual buying at discount department stores, like TJ Maxx and Marshell's, because they tend to have a wide selection of sizes and cuts. (Even when I find things that are theoretically the right size they usually don't fit, because my proportions are not "normal.") The store referenced above, however, was Coldwater Creek.
It also could be a function of where I live, however. People in the Upper Midwest tend to be more padded than those further south and nearer the coast, so maybe the smaller stuff just doesn't sell out as fast here.

Most were to "normal" weight loss sites, like WW and spark people, men's health, a couple of pages from people who did gastric bypass, and two links to this thread.
Really? I got the Xanga communities, several LJ communities, one Myspace community, and a number of random pro-ana web pages. I had two sparkpeople pages in the first three pages of results and one seemingly normal dieting page.
Maybe all these pro-ana pages I'm getting mention my region in some way, so Google thinks they're more relevant to me. Maybe there are more anorexics in Seattle than anywhere else.

It's certainly much better.

They have stores? Are they as ridiculously overpriced as their catalogs?

Although they do sometimes have clearance racks in their stores, which is somewhat more convenient than the catalog. And they sometimes hand out coupons as you enter for money off if you spend over a certain amount.
