    Was just reading the same thing but the sizes were US sizes.

    Give people an idea of what size they could be when losing:

    5ft7
    SW 251 Size 20/22
    CW 205.5 size 16 just!

    I am 5ft 7, currently 216lbs, and a size 16. I sound like I weigh a lot to be a UK 16 but I'm a UK 36H bust too so a lot of my fat is concentrated in that area lol. I love reading about different sizes/weights etc just because it highlights how individual everybody is. I have a friend who is 168lb and has a 36 inch waist, but at 216lbs my waist is 34. It goes to show weight is not everything, it's height frame etc....really important for esp taller ladies to bear in mind I think.

    CW: 203 - (UK 18)

    GW: 154 - (UK 12?)
    Judging by previous posts, sounds like this might be highly feasible.

    I'm 5ft 4in

    I started 104kg, size 22 on top, 24 on the bottom.

    I'm now 76 kg, size 14 on top, 16 on the bottom.

    My measurements are weird though. I wear a 16 on the bottom but have a 29 inch waist and have massive baps.

    It really is amazing how much people's body shape and build affect their dress size as opposed to their height and weight!

    I was 13st 10lbs and a dress size 14 to 16 (but I would probably avoid buying the 16).
    I'm now 9st 13lbs and in between a size 8 and 10.
    I'm 5ft 5 in height and just a few lbs off my goal weight.

    I've found that my weight has come off on my hips, bum and boobs (all the good stuff!!!) so I am no longer hourglass and am a pretty straight/rectangular body shape instead. I do miss the curves that I have lost but I have gained quite a bit of muscle and feel much stronger and healthier...plus us B-cup girls can always accentuate our curves with the right clothes!

    Great job everyone :-)

    Size 14 in Dorothy Perkins jeans, could probably squish into a 12.

    Even people the same height clothes size vary so much. They should make shops unify the sizes properly :angry:

    I think there is huge variation in sizing... but there is also huge variation in what some people consider to be a comfoprtable fit. I can pick up some size 10s now and get into them and zip them up but that doesn't mean they "fit" me properly. I prefer to wear a size 12 comfortably rather than looking like I squeazed myself into a 10.

    There are also huge variations in muscle mass. Someone with higher muscle mass/lower body fat will be a smaller size at the same weight than someone who is skinny fat.

    10 stone
    Size 6-8 Uk.

    Also, fact is, people will have different bone structures so two people weighing the same, at the same height, will not necessarily be the same clothing size.

    Ohhhhhh how I hate having to be so honest. It's like posting my hip measurement which has to exceed the size of my little barbecue grill. LITTLE barbecue grill.

    I'm a 22/24 without being tight.
    I weighed in at 272. Down a bit from last Friday!

    I want to be a 16 to 18.
    I would like to dip under 200 and see 198 then lose MORE! Don't know where I want to be, maybe 175.

    I'm a full 6 feet tall. :bigsmile:

    Im a size 20/22. Australian.
    Im 172cms.
    Currently weigh 103kgs. 227 pounds.
    I carry a lot of it around my middle *sigh*

    I would love to be a 10/12. I really just want to get rid of the awful stomach I have.
    Or to be able to put on a pair of pants that I don't need to get bigger to accommodate the ugly pouch of hanging fat I have to currently deal with around my mid section.
