I'm just interested in seeing what other ladies my height weigh and their clothing size. In my late teens and early 20s I weight what I weigh now, 170, but my body looked so different compared to now. After having my daughter at 21 I lost 40 pounds, kept it off for 7 years, but slowly put it back on in the last 2 years and now most of it is in my belly. I guess age is catching up with me.

    I'm 5'9", 147 pounds, and fit in mostly size 6 and 8 (long) jeans and medium tops and dresses.

    ETA: At 170 I was wearing size 12 jeans and large tops.

    I'm 5'8! When I was a health conscious vegan young lady I was about 130, size 4/6. Then I gained a bunch of weight. I don't know what size I was around 158 but maybe 8/10. Now I'm 147 and about a 6. I'd like to revert back to my healthy size 4 lifestyle. lol Just don't know how to cut out all the booze, or cheese.

    I weigh 225 pounds and am a size 16.

    The last time I was a size 16, I think I weighed about 190 lbs. I've got a lot more muscle and less fat this time around.
  • I'm 5'9" and I weight 178.6 as of this morning and I wear a size 12 pants and a large shirt. I'm hoping to get down to 155 lbs.
