    Okay...I find it difficult to do sizing/measurements in UK (I am more European, just live here and love it here!) but I will try.

    Current weight, 9 stone 6 1/2 lbs
    Ideal weight: 9 stone
    Size: 10-12

    Heaviest: I believe I must have been at least 12 stone.
    Size: 16 (at times 18)

    Actually, some clothing in the Uk has 2 sizes between that and USA sizes. I notice a lot of my Size 6 clothes say USA size 2 (Topshop being an example).

    I am 5'10 (slightly under)
    9 stone 3
    Size 6-8.

    5' 9", 65.5kg (10.3 stone) and wear size 10 or 12 depending on the shop and the garment.
    I have broad shoulders so 12s are normally needed, and muscular thighs make finding jeans to fit practically impossible!
    I have a size 8 hoodie but it's a little snug.

    5'2.
    SW: 169 lbs (12 St 1 Lbs), size 18-20 (I think)
    CW: 132 lb (9 St 6 Lbs), really not sure about what size I am as the sizes vary so much!
    I'd love to eventually get down to around 8 St and hopefully a size 10 :)

    5ft6

    SW: Around 238lb - Size 22 (17st)
    CW: 229lb - Size 18/20 (16st5lb)
    GW: No idea

    I've not lost a lot but I have been lifting heavy and doing cardio and yoga, I even lost inches before I lost weight.

    However, I have clothes ranging from 16-24 that fit me all in the same way from different shops so the above are just averages really. This is why I find "dress size" a ridiculous and pointless concept.

    I lost weight a few years back and got under 160lb (11st6lb) but could only get to a Sz14/16 as I didn't do any exercise. I also have G cup boobs that don't shrink much with weightloss.

    I'm in the US. Are UK sizes different?

    current: 214 lbs size 12/14
    goal: back to 155-160 lbs when I was size 6/8

    I'm 5'9"

    UK sizes a are a size bigger in the UK, so you 10 is a 12 in the UK.

    I'm 5'6

    SW - 177 lbs ... A tight size 16

    CW - 144lbs ... I'm in size 10 top but do have a few size 8's, on the bottom I'm a size 12 but they are starting to get loose now.

    GW - I'm not sure, I was at 147 for 6 months but recently startered using weights so may stop at 140lbs but may try for 133lbs and aim for a size 8 on top and size 10 on the bottom, as you can probably tell I'm a pear, I have hips and an *kitten*.

    Well I did it I got myself down to a size 10 on my lower half.

    Also since doing this post I changed my starting weight to what i was at the beginning of my weightloss journey so then I was a size 22/24.

    164cm (5’ 4 1/2”)

    SW: 171.6 lbs size 14
    CW: 152.8 lbs size 12
    GW: 144 lbs size 10-12

    These are trouser sizes - I have wide shoulders, so find 14 tops/jackets more comfortable, never worn smaller than a 12.
