298 - Busting out of a 28 (literally)
275- 26
255- 24
Which averages out to be about 25 pounds per size. AGH!

My highest weight was 249. I could still wear my size 18 slacks, but couldn't fit into size 18 jeans.
My lowest adult weight was 132 (about 15 years ago). I mostly wore an 8, but had a few pairs of 6's.
It takes me a LOOOONNNNGGG time to go down a size.

I kept a little notebook of sizes, measurements, weights, etc.
This is just approximate and all the sizes are women's sizes, not juniors.
190 lbs = Size 16
180 lbs = Size 14
170 lbs = Size 12
160 lbs = Size 10
150 lbs = Size 8
140 lbs = Size 6
130 lbs = Size 4

250 lbs = 26/28 (busting out, too)
230 lbs = 22/24
220 lbs = 20/22
215 + lbs = 18/20
I have the typical apple body shape. So, my legs are really not "plused sized" and get very muscular and toned very quickly. I am noticing my arms are becoming the same way. Now, my mid section...let's not talk about that....  Guess I better start those crunches!!!!

330#--I wore a 3X sweatpants, never wore jeans
315-310 --about a 26 in jeans
310-300 --24
300-285/280 --22
280 -- 20 jeans. They are tight & my gut hangs over (gross!) but I'm working on that.
I've found that for me it depends on the manufacturer, but 10-20 pounds per size is about right.

OK, I'm talking UK sizes - have no idea how these sit with US sizes - but scanning your weight/size stats at least gives me a bit of an idea of what you guys are talking about! So here's my Brit-chart:
233 - size 28
214 - size 22/24

Artist...I think a British size 10 is about an American size 6. (I wrote an essay that explored the topic once.)

ah ha. **light bulb pops on** Thanks Jennelle. When I've been reading on this board that people have got down to a 4 or a 6 I've had this mental picture of emaciation!!! It just sounds so low to me.....
