I started at 340ish and wore a size 34-36/5x-6x pant and a 4x top

Now I'm 275 and I wear a 26/28 3x pant and a 2x-3x top (24-28 size)

Since my bottom is bigger than my top, I always have weird fittings as most of the time a top will be loose around my boobage, but tight around my hips lol. Pear shape.

At 304 I was barely fitting into a size 24 pant and I was a size 4X top.
Now at 250 I am a comfortable size 20 and a 2x top.

I'm about 5'5"; I weight 276 and I'm in a 24 pant and 3x shirt. I just started, so no difference in sizes yet.

Height: 5'8" (Dang, I shrank an inch!)

Default

When I was 261, I was in a snug 20 on the bottom (should have been a 22) and a 2X on top. Now I wear a medium top and mostly a 10 on the bottom, sometimes a 12. A size 8 still eludes me, but I'm working on it.

It's interesting to see how different our bodies hold our weight.

I'm 5'8ish and my highest weight was 351. I was wearing mostly 26/28 and 3x-4x tops. Of course everything depends on the brand.

I'm 247ish now and wearing mostly 22 - some 20s and 2x/3x tops....the 3x are mostly too big, but some of the 2x aren't comfortable yet.

Can't wait to see what happens in the next 50 pounds since everyone says the sizes start to go more rapidly.

At my highest weight (364), I could no longer fit in size 28 pants and went to size 30 and my top was size 26. When I dropped to 355, I was in size 28 pants. My top size at 355 was 22/24 or 3x.

Now around 210 (slightly more than my ticker), I'm not in plus sized close anymore and wear a size 16 misses. Top size is size large.

I'm 5'8, 265. I wear 18W in pants, and a 20-22 (I'm guessing this is an XXL) in tops. My goal weight is really a goal size- I'd like to wear a 6/8 in jeans from a normal store (not sure which size yet, I'd like to see how I look in an 8 before trying for the 6, I've got a large frame so I think an 8 would look great on me) and a medium in tops.

At 304, I was a size 26 bottom and 3X top. Now at 269, I am a size 22-24 bottom and a size 1X-2X. If I lose ten pounds I will probably fit easier into my 22's.

5'10"...

Just before I started dieting, at 295, I had several pairs of size 22 jeans remaining that fit. I know they were vanity sized, stupid Calvin Klien! I refused to buy bigger, just bought CK's. My tops were 2 and 3x.

At 150 I wear sizes 6 and 8 in any designer, and a small or medium in tops. Workout pants are always XS, which seems funny to me.
