    I'm seeing a lot of women saying they are average at size 8 and 10 .. I thought average was more of a 12/14? Either way, I'm still too big for average .. maybe in about 15-20 pounds by my standards and 30-40 to everyone elses ....

    Hi :smile: Everyone's definition of average in here is different, and that's great, we love the variety. Women come in all shapes and sizes and we're here to celebrate that. For me, average isn't necessarily a size, I consider it being "in between" like I'm not where I started, but I'm also not to my ultimate goal, so I'm in between; I'm average. So, whenever you feel like posting your photos in here, you go right ahead. We'll all be here to support you and cheer you on! :flowerforyou:

    That makes sense :) I was 250, now I'm 175. I want to weigh 140 (my pre-pregnancy weight) So I guess I would be average ;)

    No your average sounds about right. I am a 12 in most jeans a 14 in skinny jeans.. I am 167 pounds at 5'3 I'm suppose to be 143 at most. My photo is above the gym locker mirror shot haha as you can see my weight is in my butt... huge bummm and thighs.

    I would love to have all of my weight in my butt! I'm top heavy ... I'm working on it though :)

    5'4, average size back in my home country (Medium~large size pants; small~medium size tops).... But apparently here in the US I'm in the "teeny tiny" category.... Do I count ?

    Bump!

    A little bit of a progress photo. The photo on the left was taken in 2009, the photo on the right just recently :-) I'm finally starting to get back my body :-)

    Thank you!! It's definitely one of my favorites! I love dancing in it, all the layers give it so much fluid movement and when you do a spin the bottom of it flares out so pretty :-)
