I'm 5'6
Was size 15 jeans, Large Shirts
Now I'm 12 jeans still kinda snug but wearable, Medium shirts
I wear scrubs to work, I refuse to buy any new ones till I'm at my goal, so I look like I'm swimming in them now.:o

I still fit in my size 14-15s but very loosely I find myself pulling them up a lot if I'm not wearing a belt.

I am a size 18 in pants (down from a size 22) and a 14/16 in shirts (down from a 18/20)

I'm 5'4", 186-190lbs (depending on the day of the week and the moon cycle) and I wear size 12 tops and size 14 pants at most places, but in jeans I take a size 16.

This is such an interesting thread! I don't know what I weigh but I wear mostly 10's in pants (from NY and Co), although some are 8's (like my docker perfect fit stretch capris) and some are 12's (my American Eagle Jeans).

In shirts i own things in Small, Medium, and Large

Skirts are 8's and still too big in the waist but no where else.

I saw someone write once just buy what looks good on you and don't worry about the number on the tag of your clothes. I shun the scale cause i got # obsessed and i admit i kind of do it with my clothes. All stores size things differently but i always feel bad about myself if i have to buy a larger size than i want to. It's annoying.

i'm 5'6" and at the beginning i was 228 and wearing a size 18 jeans/ 2XL tops from deb plus. currently i'm 167, and wearing size 12 jeans / M tops from Old Navy.

Just over 5' 7" and 170 lbs and I find that I can now fit into my old 10s in pants and jeans! There is one pair that is a little too snug, but its not bad. Tops, always a large, I have D breasts, which I usually like. I am a curvvy girl.

I will say that in the past, I don't think I fit into my 10s at 170 because I wasn't as toned as I am now.

I probably started out at a 14 at 192, some 12s? But seriously, I think those 12s were stretched out then.

I am 5'4, weigh 170 and I wear a size 10/12 jeans/pants and size large shirts. I use to wear 16 and XL's.

I started at 220, a size 16 and L/XL in tops.

Now I'm at 197.5, a size 12 and M/L in tops. I haven't actually bought any new tops yet, but all my larges are too big!! I DEFINITELY carry my weight in my hips, though, so I'd be FINE if I didn't shrink any more on top (maybe just a little in the belly area).

But seriously. My boobs need to stop leaving my body. Or if they MUST leave, they should be taking more thigh with them so as to not be lonely wherever they end up.

hahahaha arts! That's so funny! Hopefully your boobs and my boobs will maybe find each other in fat heaven and be friends. (Did that sound odd at all?)

I'm a snug 16 and a loose 18 in pant size. Most of my current pants are 18 or larger but I did manage to dig out a pair of old 16s. my 18's require a belt and my 16s require a well-cut shirt for the time being.

(5'10, 216 lbs)

I carry most of my excess weight in my belly so my size would probably be smaller if not for that. Maybe. I don't know.

Shirt size is usually XL because of the boobs but I've lately been able to find flattering fits in a L as well.

I'm 5'6" and 175lbs, and I'm wearing a size 12.

Smiling_Sara 08-22-2008 09:01 AM

220, and just barely fitting into 20's. More comfortable in 22's. At my highest weight I was a 24/26

Silverstar33 08-22-2008 11:05 AM

I'm at a size six in pants but I've got a button busting chest, so usually have to go with larges up there. I'm 5'8" and just a hair over 140 at this point.

I kept smiling to myself when I read that other people had weird points where they refused to acknowledge they should be a larger size. For whatever reason, I refused to believe that I was a size 12 when I was at my peak height. Like somehow I was fooling everyone by continuing to wear clothes that were too small. Now I think back about it and I'm embarrassed by how bad I must have looked!

shantroy 08-22-2008 11:21 AM

I'm 5'2" and 140. I wear a 6 or an 8 in bottoms and small or medium in tops. Blouses are the worst for me right now. Silverstar, I've got a button busting chest right now to! I hate it!!!! I gained a fair chunk of my weight in my boobs and around my rib cage. So now small button up tops don't fit me across the chest, but mediums are to large around my stomach and waist.

LOL! I would like for my boobs to go far, far away, but these things are sticking around. I lost 50lbs and the cup size didn't change! I would love to be just a regular DD so I could buy my bras at a store like regular folk
