...........and a UK size 14?
I would like to know what weight you are. I am currently a UK20 in trousers and 18 in tops. I have a wedding to go to in October, and I want to buy myself the most STUNNING dress, and I am thinking of buying it now in a size 14. I just want to know what weight I would need to get down to, and therefore if it is achieveable.
Thanks

Sometimes you can lose inches and not weight but generally a size 14 is around 12.5 stone to 14.5 stone depending on height =. i am 5 3" and i'm a size 14 and i weigh about 13.5 stone.
Hope that helps x0 -
Hi there, I'm 5'6 and a size 14 trousers and 16 top. I weigh about 12st 7, but what size you would be at this weight depends upon your body shape. Hope this helps. x0

Hiya im 5"6 and am currently a small 14/large 12 and i am 11 stone 3. Youve got a good chuck of time to get down to a 14, you can do this, good luck. xx0

I'm 5'6". When I was 150 lbs I was still wearing mostly size 12 clothes but they were pretty snug. I'd have been more comfortable in a size 14 I think but didn't want to buy bigger stuff!
Of course you can get there if you put your mind to it! You are doing so well!0 -
Hey!
I'm 5' 5.5" and i'm into my size 14 clothes now at 12st 6lbs, i'm an hour glass shape. However my mum is 5' 6" and is under 12st and is a size 16, she's an apple shape tho. Dont know if that helps at all? x0 -

Hi there I'm 5ft 5 and a size 14 and weigh 13st 5lbs (186lbs) I'm a bit bigger on the bottom half so size 14 dresses fit me well and i usually find a size 16 too big. I always thought i should be bigger for my weight as other people that have told me they wear the same clothing size as me are up to a stone or stone com a half lighter! I suppose everyone's different best of luck with your goal xx0
-
so unfair!! when i was 13.5 stone, i was nearer an 18/20
i always seem to take a bigger clothes size or two than other people do for the same weight0 -
Don't know if it helps or not but i'm 5'5 1/2 and have just got into a Monsoon size 14 dress for my brothers wedding. Allbeit a little tight across the chest!! I've got 2 weeks to sort that out!! I currently weigh 13st 12. I guess it just goes on the person, everyone's different. xx0

I'm 5.6 and weigh 158lb and am more comfortable in a size 14 than 12.0

Wow! Interesting that there's such a wide weight range ... I'm 5'6 and size 14 is my aim (I'm a size 18 now at 215lb), though a 12 would be the ultimate dream. I'm aiming for a goal weight of 150lb which is the highest weight in the 'normal' BMI range ... but will see WHEN I get there0

Hey suzycreamcheese I know it's weird how we can all be such drastically different sizes at the same weight as someone else. It can be so easy to concentrate on the weight thing rather than how we fit into our clothes. when somone tells ya they weigh a lot less it can be like....dagnammit.....and you feel like you've got so much further to go! My sis is heavier than me and is more apple shaped....but i totally wish i had her legs!!0

I am 5'6 and was in a size 14 at around 13 to 14 stone. Now am 12st 2lbs and size 10 top/dress/skirt and 12 jeans/trousers(damn you big bottom!). You will get in that dress, buy it! x0

You're aiming for the same as me. I am 7lbs heavier than you. I might call on you for motivation if I get stuck!0
