  • Im 5'4 and hold my weight really well. I am currently 245 and wearing a 14/16. I am not totally sure what I want the number to be. I was 170 at one point and a size 10ish so I wouldnt mind being an 8/10.
  • I'm an African-American woman, 44 years of age. I look great in sizes 4 - 6, at size 8, I begin to look chubby again. So, for me, smaller sizes look best. And I'm 5'2".

    I've been bouncing between 125 and 130 for the last year or so after dropping from 178 last summer. At the doctor's this morning I weighed in at 56kg (123.5lbs) which is the lowest I've ever been. My doctor feels strongly that I shouldn't lose any more weight, but I personally feel like I could happily drop another 5 pounds or so. I'd be happy to maintain between 120 and 125, or even up to about 128, but I definitely don't want to go above 130 again. I actually think I could lose another 10 and not look too skinny because I have quite a small frame, but I don't particularly have any desire to go that low.

    For reference, I'm 5'3" and wear a UK size 12 (US 8) in most things although I have a few dresses and tops that are a 10 (US 6).
