I can't believe the differences, I am 211 (5"3) and in a 20/22 pants (probable should be in an 18 but afraid to show the lumps) and a XXL in shirts the lowest I have been in 4 yrs was 170 and still didn't get under a size 16.
I am currently 145, 5'4" and in a size 8 or 10, depending on the style of bottoms. I usually wear a M or L in the shirts. I would really like to be in a 6 by the time I finish losing my weight.
Wow this is pretty suprising, I'm 5'5 and weight 218. I wear an 18 and at least a 1x top. I am very top heavy and have big hips too. Most of my weight is up top or in my legs hips and butt.. gee thats everywhere!! Guess I have a lot of work to do
Right now I'm 226, 5'3" and I wear a 16/18 and L-XL tops. After I had my dd I was 221 (once I lost the inital weight) and I was in 20-22 and XL-XXL tops. Before having DD I was 196 and a size 11/L tops but after having her I got down to 186 and I was still in a 14/16. My lowest weight I was 140-145 and in a 7/8 M-L tops (some smalls). I'm heavy on bottom and since having my DD my hips have spread more.
I'm 5'7" and 210 and other than my 40D chest, I carry my weight pretty evenly over my entire body. I wear a 16-18 in jeans and an XL top. And all I can say about Kirstie Alley is that if she weighed 210 at her highest, I'm Queen Elizabeth. I would guess around 300. I weigh 210 and I'm only about half her size.
Actually though, if I look at myself objectively, I would only guess I weigh 180ish. I don't know if that means I have a higher percentage of natural muscle mass (just started working out, so it would have to be natural) or really small bones, or what exactly, but even my mother (who is really outspoken and always tells the truth, even if its painful) doesn't believe I weigh what I do. I guess that's a good thing.
currently i am 242 lbs, 5'6" and i wear a size 20 or 22 bottoms and an xl t-shirt. sometimes the top size is differetn from store to store or style to style. the smallest i've been that ican remember is a size 18 bottoms at 220 lbs. i carry most of my weight on my stomach but i also have a good ammount everywhere else too. LOL
I'm 5'4", 150 lbs., on a smallish frame. I can wear small/medium tops, and am a 10/12 on bottom. In fact, I have a huge vanity problem, and I won't buy bottoms if I have to wear anything bigger than a 10! At my smallest (125 lbs., and that was too small and too hard to maintain), I wore size 6.
Very interesting thread!
I'm 5'4
At my highest, 238 I wore an 18/20 pant and XL top.
Now at 162 I wear a 12 pant and L top.
I am very curvy. I have a really small waist compare to my arms/chest and my thighs/butt. So my pants always stick out in the back on the waist and are skin tight on my hips and thighs.
I'm 5'6" weigh 181 and wear a size 12 in slacks and 14 in jeans as far as I can tell.
I wear a size large t-shirts. I am definatly top heavy. I'd be a size smaller in jeans if it wern't for my big gut. Pants fit everywhere but the gut.
I am 5'3" 271 lbs. I am currently in a 22/24 pants(depending on cut) and at least a 2x top. When I was 199 lbs. I was in a 16/18 pants and a xl/1x top. I carry most of my weight in my stomach and butt.
