I'm 22, about 270 lbs, 5'9"ish, size 20. 18's fit, but make my stomach stick out! I think they call that a muffin top? ;)

LookingForMeAgain 02-04-2009 12:00 PM

I love reading these kind of posts. It is exciting when you find someone who has started with the same stats as you and you can get an idea. But everyone is made so different and so are clothing brands that its hard to really even guesstimate.

I am wearing size 26s from lane bryant but can just now get my 24 Tommy jeans on and could wear them out if I had to. They are a tad too tight for my liking though. So jeans 26 lane bryant but in a few more pounds should move comfortably in to the 24s
I have worn 24s from 260-297
Ive been in 26s from 299-311
when I was pregnant at 318 the 24 maternity fit
The smallest I ever was was 14/16 in dresses 18 in jeans and I was about 190 then.



So anyway
Im between 5'7 and 5'8
weigh 297
age:30
jean size 26

junebug41 02-04-2009 12:06 PM

I'm 27

At my highest weight I was a size 20.

At my lowest weight of 135 I was a 6/8

At my highest weight post maintenance of 157 I was a solid 10 (even pushing 12 territory).

Now, at 149 I am fitting into *most* of my 8s.

TJFitnessDiva 02-04-2009 12:07 PM

I'm 30 ;)
5' 7"

You are probably going to find a huge variety of sizes on this since everyone probably carries their weight a little differently...it has a lot to do with your body shape!

WVUFan86 02-04-2009 12:13 PM

I'm 22
5'7
180
size 14....i haven't gone down yet because I hate buying clothes just to go down again soo I'm waiting until my belt will no longer hold up these 16's

corazonas 02-04-2009 12:14 PM

I know~I am just soooooooo excited to dream of my new size of what it might become!! lol

Lori259 02-04-2009 12:16 PM

Thanks Corazonas!!!

kitten 02-04-2009 12:22 PM

im currently a 22. i have been up to 26.
11 years ago this month (wedding date) i was wearing XL. and this part is pathetic- i have a huge collection of XL/16 clothes that i have carried around from waiting to fit into. even worse, in the past if im shopping and see something i really love in an XL, i buy it and put it away. i also have kept many 20 and 18 things too. it drives my husband crazy.

Priscatip 02-04-2009 12:36 PM

At my starting point, I was 185 pounds and fitting (very tightly) into a pair of 14s. 16s would have fit better, but I refused. Now, at 163, the waist on my 14s doesn't fit at all, there's about 4 inches of extra material, but the thighs and butt still fit nicely so I can't cram into new 12s yet.

butterflywings34 02-04-2009 12:44 PM

I am 36
5'3
143 Ibs..
wear a size 9

Good luck getting to your goal weight!! :carrot:

Extasee58865 02-04-2009 12:47 PM

I'm 28 years 5' 5" tall and started my journey @ 231 lbs, in a size 22. I'm now 180 lbs in a size 14. :)

Umberto 02-04-2009 12:50 PM

I'm 20, 5'6/7 (not sure), 152lbs and i wear size 12 jeans in UK sizes which is an 8 in the US i think.

Fressca 02-04-2009 12:58 PM

I'm female, 50 (! I can't believe that), 5' 7", currently weigh 167, and am fitting comfortably into my size 10 Gap jeans.

BettyBooty 02-04-2009 01:00 PM

I am 35.

I weigh about 190 lbs.

I am 5'4"

I wear a size 14 pants.

I tend to carry the weight all over my body rather than in a just few key places like thighs or butt.

Msahaller 02-04-2009 01:15 PM

I'm 27
5'2" and nearly 200lbs
I barely squeeze myself into 14's (yes I have the horrible muffin top) 14's fit my waist but usually hang off my *** and 16's fit my waist comfortably but look awful cuz they hang off everywhere else. I usually have to wear Petite because I'm so short.
This is what happens to me when I try and shop
A) Pants fit great.....except for the extra foot of material at the bottom!
B) Pants fit great.....If I'm waiting for a flood!
C) Pants are perfect length...but tummy explodes out over the waist

Frustrating!

JulieJ08 02-04-2009 01:34 PM

I'm 5'7" and I have a pear-ish hourglass shape.

At my high weight, I wore size 18.

Now at 138 I wear a 6 or 8.

It's funny because:
When I was 18, I weighed about 120 and usually wore an 8.
When I was 30, I weighed about 130 and usually wore an 8.
Now at 40, I weighed about 140 and wore a size 8.

jademarlene 02-04-2009 01:46 PM

I am 52 & 5' 3". At 150# wore a size 12. At 115# wear a 2 in some jeans, but a 4 in most clothes (and loving it). I have never been able to stay at this weight since 7th grade, but have been maintaining it now for almost a year.

kelly315 02-04-2009 06:44 PM

I'm just about in the same boat as you...same weight, height (almost), size 18 but I fit in one pair of stretchy tight 16s.

wchs2007 02-04-2009 07:06 PM

Great thread... What I find odd is.. I am 5'4... in high school I thought I was just so fat.. I was 145 lbs and my size was a 13.. From the looks of the way clothes is made now I could be in a single digit if I ever see 145 again. lol
I am between 251 and 255 right now and I wear a 20 but it is tight.
( I am pear shaped I think) I carry my weight all over..

painted lady 02-04-2009 07:33 PM

I am 5'4", weigh 130, and wear a size 6 jean. i have wide-ish hips. i wear a size medium shirt (sometimes small).
i used to be a size 12 and have to wear a large or extra large shirt.
