I thought it would be nice for people to post their height, weight, and current size, so that we can buddy up with people in the same range. I like to know what people who are around my height weigh and what size they wear. It lets me know where I'm going or where I've come from. I know, I know everyone is different, but we can get a general idea how we'll look at a certain weight or size. Hope someone wants to join.
I am currently 191lbs
5'5" or 5'6"
size 16 womens or 17 juniors
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 140
Size: 8-10 pants, sm-med top
I seem to be staying at this weight regardless of how well I do with my eating, so I'm getting adjusted to the idea that this may be where I'm going to stay. I'm about to join a new gym, and I'm very excited about shaping up. Since I'm in my 40's, and have had three kids, I have lots and LOTS of jiggly parts. Since plastic surgery's not in my foreseeable future, this will have to do.
I'm 5'5, 279 pounds. I met someone online who lived nearby and was the same height as me, 268 pounds, so VERY close. We got together, and turns out she does NOT wear Plus Sized clothes--she wears regular size 16s and 18s! I wear a women's plus size 22 pants, 24-28 shirt. It's INSANE how diferent we really are!
Thats the truth, Jill. I am "small" for what I weigh. People usually guess 140, and I just say.. " Sure"
I always thought 14, 16 were plus size? I know when I was wearing them I had to go the plus size section to find them. Even now, I dont see them in the juniors dept. Maybe Im wrong.
Edit: to say.. are they in the Womens Dept?? I totally forgot about that section.. For me its always been Plus or Juniors, cuz I dont do the "womens" dept. Too... grown up for me
Wow! I hope I'm a size 8 at 168lbs! Which, really, I know I won't be. I think I was a size 13 at 170, so , there you go. But maybe since I am exercising now, and wasn't then, my 170 will look more like 160 or 165. (?) hoping so!
Great idea! I'm 5' 5", 163.5 lbs., a size 12 in pants, and a size large in shirts at places like Old Navy or Gap (I pretty much live in t-shirts from Old Navy).
I'll join this, I am 5'4" and weigh in at 173 pounds. I wear 16/18 sometimes I can wear a 14 pants but it really depends on who makes it. and I think most of my t-shirts are a large.
I am new at posting in the threads, before I just looked around for a few weeks, and I have noticed it is incredible the difference in size when two people are the same weight. I know before when I was 'skinny' I wore a size 10 and my hip bones were stopping me from getting any smaller. I am not going that thin again but I just need to shed a little to get the weight off my knees.
Cool. so me and the 5'5" girls are on the kinda on the same track. Well, since my goal is 150lbs, anyone ever been that weight who is around 5'5". or is anyone a size 9 who is 5'5"? I figure I should be a size 9/10 at 150.
Height and size buddies
