  • 5'7" 215 lbs size 18/16 jeans
  • 5'8.5" and right now I sit around 125-7, wear small tops and 4 in jeans (but I have to safety pin the waist tighter, if I went down a size don't think my legs would fit).

    A year ago I was under 120 and the clothes fit the same as they do now. A year ago if I was at my current weight, I'd have a muffin top and wear more medium tops. My face would definitely be rounder and id have a bigger tummy. Classic "skinny fat" - shows what 10 months weights and cardio will do to a body's composition :)

    5'8" I was a sz 14 at 175...at 145 I'm 6 or 8 depending on the brand. I want to lose 15 more because I have a super small bone frame (size 4 rings & 7 shoes). I also struggle with genetically bad knees. So, the less weight the better for the knees.

    It's hard to say, I switched brands.

    A size 16 Lee jeans is bigger than a size 16 Dockers. I'm 5'9" and currently weigh 179.5. My size 16 Long Dockers, which I wasn't able to wear 20 lbs ago, are baggy on me. I can now easily wear a pair of long underwear under these pants. A few more pounds and I'll can go down a size. I'll wear a belt to get a few more days wear out of my current pants, but when the belt looks silly because the pants are so big, then it's time to retire those pants.

    My goal weight is 150 and I expect to wear about a roomy 12. Size 10, which I wore in high school, would require me to drop another 15-20 lbs and that's just not going to happen.

    I'm 5'11" and I'm a size 16 at 200. I was a size 10 at 130 (which is the borderline for underweight for my height)...so go figure. I'll certainly never be a size 6 or whatever all the ladies shoot for these days.

    I'm 5'11, I think about 160 (I don't own a scale) and about an 8 in AE jeans. They're getting loose, though, think I might size down next time I go shopping.

    I am 5'7.5" almost 5'8". Right now, I am 195lb and wearing size 10 GAP jeans that is already loose. In shirts, I am wearing Large , and I do not think I would go much lower do to my big bobs. I am wearing a 34HH bra.

    When I was 230lb , I was wearing US size 16 pants, which was super tight on me., and XL shirts and 36J bra.

    currently 158 pounds...aiming for 150-153. I wear size medium tops and pants in a 10--some pants brands are a little baggy but I've got a little too much padding on the butt/hips for a size 8 lol :happy:

    Phew! We are the same weight, height and size. What a relief that there is someone else out there like me. I was beginning to wonder where these other women were buying their clothes at, and why I can't yet fit into a size 10.

    I am 6' and started at 194 and was wearing a 16, though it was tight.

    Now, i'm 165, and still in a size 14 pants. BUT, i can wear an 11/12 dress now. I'm at my goal weight, but am hoping to tone up and lose some more inches! Maybe i'll be able to get into those 12s eventually!

    So glad you started this thread, it's great to see other tall folks and where they are.

    I'm 5'9'', and at 197lbs I'm wearing a size 16. Before the baby, I was about 160 and wearing a snug size 10, or a roomy size 12. My goal is to get down to 145lbs and wear a size 8.

    I'm 5'9" , 200lbs and in between a US 12 and 14 right now. I was 250 in an 18-20 when I started MFP in September. I am, however, very small framed. Like tiny, lol I can't believe it was physically possible for me to get that fat. Even at this weight,I look ridiculous.
