    I'm 6'2" and weigh 295. I wear a size 22 dress and...oh...wait...crap..this was meant for women only wasn't it? I hate it when I do that. Ok. Seriously. I do not wear dresses.

    Height: 5'11"

    CW: 235
    GW: 160, maybe lower, we'll see when I get there

    Current dress size: 18/20
    Goal dress size: 8

    If I can make it to a size 8, I'll be happy. Smaller than that is cool, but an 8 will please me. My lowest adult weight was 190 @ a size 10/12. I still had some flab and could tone up a lot from that point, so I'm pretty confident in being able to hit 160 & sz 8.

    5'6''
    148.6 pounds
    pants and dress size 12 (usually. Some stores I'm still a 14)

    I have a small frame but wide hips. I'm an interesting shape... I can relate to frustration about the sizes of others compared to myself though, and I'm working on stopping comparing. My body is UNIQUE, just like everyone else's.

    edited to add- My goal size is a 10. I don't know if I'll be there in 8.6 pounds, and if I'm not, then I'm giving up on that and going to work on being happy at a 12. :drinker:

    The size difference are interesting.
    I am 5'2" 128 pounds.
    I just went close shopping this weekend d/t my 20# weight loss and went from a size 12 to a size 8 pants. I was pleased with that. I don't wear dresses.
    My top half is very small but my hips and but are larger. We are all made so different.

    At 370 I wore a 26
    Now at 293 I wear a 20. Will be dropping to an 18 within the next 15 pounds I'd say.

    I'm 5'5" and 208 pounds. I wear a size 16 dress (if I can fit my boobs in - 36DDs are hard to fit into dresses). If I go up a dress size I look shapeless so I usually stick to tops (size L) and bottoms (size 16).

    I am 5'5"
    Weight 133lbs
    Dress size - UK 8-10. US 4-6
    27 in jeans


    I think I weigh more than I look. I think most people would put me at about 8 1/2 stone, whereas I am exactly 9 1/2. I am currently a 28FF/G bra size. I have a really small frame!

    It all depends on your body composition. Muscle weighs more than fat but takes up less volume... so someone that is 150 lbs with 18% body fat would generally be a smaller size than someone else who is the same height and same weight but has like 27% body fat...

    yes, i know this. i'm just curious about the numbers. :)

    Interesting...maybe it's because of how many years it's been and the fact that they have started actually trying to fit big women, but I haven't been in a 20 since I weight 205 way back in middle school (22 years ago). I'm also 5' 6", and at 340, I am still (barely) in a 24.

    I usually wear a 10 pant and 10 dress.
    I can squeeze into an 8 dress and 8 pant, but I like a little room since I sit all day.

    I have very broad shoulders and am a bit 'hippy' with a small waist.

    My goal size would be a comfortable 8 (US sizing).
