You have lost weight, and that is wonderful!
I find that I lose pounds (I guess kilos in your case ) OR I shrink in size-but not both at the same time. After two months, I had lost about 7 or 8 pounds, but I had not lost a lot in my clothes. Then I lost inches, but no pounds.
You also have to consider that US sizes are different from other countries sizes AND not all US sizes are the same. There is no real size standard. At my weight, I have a pair of 10's, a pair of 9's and a pair of 8's that all fit me about the same way. I have a couple of suits that are 12 petite's that fit great.
There is also the fact that we are all built differently. Several people on this forum can wear 8's at a weight that is higher than mine-they have a different shape than I do or maybe they buy different brands that are sized different.
Do you measure yourself? Try putting on some of your old clothes and see how they fit. I bet you will notice a difference there.
