    I'm 5'6 and when I was 192 I was wearing 14W (tightly) and large tops.
    I'm a solid pear shape and carry everything in my butt and hips.
    Even down to 130 I never got smaller than a 8-10 in bottoms.

    i'm 5' 9". At 190-200 i was a size 16, 180 -190 size 14, currently 175lbs and comfortable in a size 12. But I'm thinking it will be closer to 160 before I'm in a size 10.

    I'm 5 '5 1/2" and at 195 I wore loose size 14 pants, an XL shirt, and a size 14 in dresses (under "photos" in my profile the picture of me in the green dress is at 195 lbs). I'm more of a pear-shape.

    I'm 5'2 and wearing a medium size shirt and size 12-14 pants. I weigh 180 ish. My body has always been weird though. Even though i'm chesty (36D) I still can wear a medium since I have a small waist, the reason my pants are awkward is because i have big a big butt and big hips, so most of my pants fit baggy in the waist.

    me too. I am 5'2, 197lbs, and I am currently in a baggy-waisted 18. I try on the 16's, but after I get them past my butt, there's no room left to zipper, lol. I wear a large top, and size large workout clothes--but they are tight in the hips. My thighs, hips, and butt are also the last places I've lost inches--took nearly 2 months for me to lose the inches there.

    I am 5'11" and 204 right now wearing mostly 14 and large tops. Thinking I will be loosly wearing the same at 195 but will likely be 12 and Medium/Large at my goal weight 175.

    I'm just a tad over 5'7" and at 200 was wearing a somewhat loose size 14. I'm now 191lbs and wear a size 9/10 curvy fit jean ...and they're getting baggy. I was shocked when I went into the store wearing a size 14 and came out with a size 9/10, but I've been doing a lot of strength training (p90x). I haven't dropped a lot of weight, but my jeans prove to me that I'm losing inches :)

    I'm 192 lbs, 5'6". Right now I'm wearing tight 16s or very loose 18s. Sorry I don't have pics, but I'm an apple shape.....no butt.

    This is me. I just eeked under 200 this week, and at 5'6" my 18s are comfortable and my size16 zip up, non elastic jeans, I can squeeze into, but have a fairly large muffin top, so it will be another 10 pounds before I will wear them in public.

    Sizes vary so much between cuts, designers, stores, etc. If I am willing to pay more, I am sure that I could find some size 10 or 12s that I could squeeze into. lol

    I carry all my weight in my abdomen, and it is the last place I lose. I have lost 28 pounds, and my inches went from 48" to 42" in my hips, 24" to 22" in my thighs, 46" to 42" in my waist, but only 48" to 46" in my abdomen.
    It's like the fat falls from my waist to my lower belly before it finally leaves!
    I am rather large chested as well, so that accounts for some extra weight. I have lost 2inches in my bust, but that came from around my chest(back fat) as I haven't lost any in the cup size.

    I did go from a 2X-3X in plus size tops to XL in the regular ladies section.
    My profile pic is from about a week ago, right around 200. That top is a XL and is comfy loose.

    **I do realize that this tread was started back in March, so the original poster is probably not reading it anymore, but it is nice for others reading it now to get an idea of what they may look like at this weight.**

    Wow! What are your waist and hip measurements, if you don't mind me asking?

    I'm 5"10 and was wearing size 16 at that weight. It all depends where we carry the weight the most.

    At 5'8 I was wearing size 14 pants, anywhere from a M-XL top. I carry most of my weight in my hips, thighs and butt.

    There is a huge difference between a regular 14 size and a 14W. I can't fit into a 14 from Walmart or Target, but if I go to Lane Bryant, or Catherines, then the smallest clothes they have, which is 14W, are way too big on me. I am in a weird size range where it is a bit difficult to find clothes that fit.
