What is your Jeans size (before/after)

cairnsmom

I've tried like might to be 5'2, but I'm really barely 5'1...

SW 200, size 18 (but I sucked it up and wore a 16)
CW 168, size 12 or 14 (with a belt). It depends on that muffin top. I also have a pair of stretchy Wranglers in a 10.
GW 135, probably will be a 6/8, but maybe a 10 for comfort.

Canuckgirl77

I'm 5'3"
SW: 267 lbs wearing a US size 22/24 and 2X tops
CW: 200 lbs wearing a US size 16/18 and 1X tops (only b/c I can't buy any new clothes yet!)

Wow...I didn't realize until I typed this out how much of a change that is. Great job everyone!!

SW 290 24WP tight
CW 130 8 (some brands 6)

My highest was 14 last summer. Eek. Being small waisted naturally, my thighs looked so huge and disproportionate. Now I'm about a 10-11 which is more comfortable for me. Not really caring about going smaller, just toning up.

SW: 178lbs
CW: 160lbs
GW: 155ish

Great job everyone! Seeing clothing sizes drop is just so much more satisfying than just weight on a scale in my opinion.

For me I've dropped from a size 42 at 260lbs to a 36 at 215lbs. My goal is to reach a 34 by my birthday in August.

I'm 5'5" and at 162 lbs I wore a size 12, and now at 125-130 lbs, I'm in a size 6. I have wide hip bones and have never been smaller than a 4, even when I was under 110 lbs. The 6's fit big in the waist, but fit fine on the hips. I'm definitely pear shaped!

I hear you on the pear-shape problem! I'm the same height, but started at 195lb and a UK size 18 jeans. Now 170lb and UK size 14 (US size 10) in jeans/trousers, but UK 12 (US size 8) on top. I'm only halfway to my goal of 145lb, and I've no clue what my bodyshape will be when I get there - I did suspect that the pear shape will follow me down, and it will definitely dictate where I stop, more than the scale number. I've seen other pear-shapes mentioning how skinny their upper half looks long before their bottom half does. So, my 147lb (10.5 stone) goal is only approximate, and will depend on whether my exercise makes a difference to how my thighs and hips look in relation to the rest of me!

Yes! I am definitely one of those girls who looks too skinny up top. I've been lifting weights and working on getting a stronger upper body so maybe (hopefully) I'll look more proportionate. Bonus would be if I could decrease the hip/saddlebag area

TnZMom

5'7"

212 = 18
171 = 14

I tend to be a 12 around 155 and a 10 around 145.

MsSquatAlot

Mine is going to sound very off because of my body proportions but here it is, haha.

Height: 5'1
SW:345ish and in a size, hell I think it was a 32 and a 4x in tops.
CW: 201 and a size 11 and Medium in tops.

(ETA height)

glitterrainn

I am still a size 16. Maybe my hips are huge bc I'm less weight than some of you and I can't fit into a 14. I know everyone is different. I'm just jealous lol.

I'm 5'5 and cw is 175. Sw was 198.

I don't get it. I was 5"10 245-250 and was wearing 48s. Now I'm 175 and wearing 36-38. Just bought a bunch of 38s but after wearing a few days they are falling to about pube level. I don't get how someone at 215 is wearing same Jean size. Unless you're super tall

Originally (before starting at MFP and before any weight loss attempts) I was a 44. Right now I'm a 38 but I like to wear a 40 with a belt.

That is where I start scratching my head... I'm 5'2" and SW was 248, CW is 223...I'm still in the same size 24. MsSquatalot is an inch shorter, 21 lbs less and is in a size 11. When I lose another 21 lbs, I'm not going to be in an 11...just aint gonna happen. Last time I was in an 11, I was 115 lbs (that was 40 yrs ago)

jenniferpiotrowski0

Cw-156
Gw-130
Sw-160 before I was in a jean size 16,pushing it for a size 17,meaning I could wear a 17 but they were slightly looser on me. But now I wear a size 15 so I went down about a jean size or 2. I lost 10 pounds,then gained 6 but I think it could be from gaining muscle or something cuz my clothes are definitely looser on me

do you lift, though? someone who does that kind of body building stuff is going to have a heck of a lot more muscle than someone who doesn't.....muscle, being more dense than fat is going to take up less space and require smaller clothes. there will be quite a clothing size disparity between someone who regularly does heavy lifting and anyone else of the same or similar weight who doesn't
