What weight/size are you????

I think this is helpful for perspective - most often we have a #lbs goal - thinking we can make it correlate to a particular size - but the fact is that across clothing makers, things vary greatly. 

So - I figured we could all share where we are so that newbies and those still on the journey have an idea of where things could 'settle'......

For me - today, I am 195lbs - height 5'8''.  My jeans I have on today are a 14 stretch.  I have slacks from NY and Co that are a 10 and a couple of 8s.  I also have a pair of shorts from there that are a 14. 

In shirts - I usually go for a XL for a loose look, L for more fitted. 

What about you???

I don't just have issues, I have subscriptions!  I'm saving on the newsstand price.......

              Have I not read that you are in the family way? (Slap me if I'm wrong.)  You and the little pumpkin are just the right size.

My current weight is 163-164
my height 5'7
size 8-10 depending on maker

lowest weight was 147 and size 4-6 (but looked like a crack-head). So trying to get back to 155-157 and stay there. So I got about 7-9 pounds to get off.

Hey Trina!

I am almost 5'8" and I weighed in 197 this a.m.  I am able to comfortably wear 14's and some 12's.  I wear size L shirts now because of recent lipo surgery.  Prior to surgery, I would get the XL to hide my back fat and muffin top.  I am shooting for 180-185...but this schiznitt is hard!

I am 153lbs, 5'5 hoping to see 150lbs by Sunday.  I wear some 7/8 slacks and jeans.  9/10 are what I am most comfortable in, I like a loose fit.  Shirts and blouses are medium.  My feet have gone from a 10 to a 9.    

ETA: I had reached 147lb (Oct 08), but gained 8lbs back.  Now I am trying to reach goal 135lbs.


When you devote yourself to achieving your goal, you will not be bothered by shallow criticism.

mernting all.

151 this am.   5.5-1/2   today's skirt label says it's a 6 but it's walmart's "george" line which runs big.  i'm really a fluffy 8 or proper 10.   in tops i'm a L because of the deez.  M if my inner hooch is doing the shopping.    in theory :raine: i wanna drop 10 more, but will live with the jelly roll if not.
