Hi! I'm 5'2" ...on most days I'm 109 and I'm a size 2-4, I started at 112.

Hi ladies! Just wondering what size everyone is. Right now I'm 126lbs and a size 2-4. I started my journey at 196lbs and a size 16.


Have a great day!

I am 32 years old, 5'4" and started my weightloss journey at 188 pounds and wore a size 16. Today I am at 143 and wear a 6-8, depending on the brand, and feel better than ever! I haven't been this small since middle school!

I'm 5'3", started at 170-something and am now down in the 150s. I think the ideal weight for my frame is 130's, actually still "heavy" for a short person...

I dunno who else this might interest, BUT I'm a fan of the classic, curvy look, so Marilyn's Monroe's dimensions were reported as follows:

Height: 5'5" (I'm 5'3")
Weight: 118-140 pounds (I'm 155)
Bust: 35-37 inches (Currently 38")
Waist: 22-23 inches (Currently 30")
Hips: 35-36 inches (Currently 37")
Bra size: 36D (36D, need to get remeasured)

I'm lifting weights to keep the hourglass in check.

I'm 5'1", I am 45 and my ideal weight would be 123-125, I am at 133 right now. I started MFP to be accountable for what I eat and also to eat more healthful.. I don't want to be super skinny like I was in my late 20's (106 lbs), I was too thin. Plus, I like my junk in the trunk and my boobs (as does my hubby) !!! I think I look better and more healthy at a higher weight for my frame. I can wear jeans/pants anywhere from a 4 to a 8. I would like to get back into my Lucky Brand jeans though!!

5'3.5" - small frame

Started at 125-ish (9 months pp after 2nd baby), size 7
Lowest weight was 102 when he was 18 months, size 00-1, xs tops, very skinny no muscle tone
Current weight is 110-112, size 0-3 depending on brand, s-m tops depending on stretch, my arms and shoulders are muscular now, yet bottom half stayed the same as far as measurements are concerned.

Hmm -- I'm 5'3" weighing 145lbs -- my pants vary depending on brand too
ones are now are 11 but pretty big -- and others are a 7 and sometimes 9..wtf

my problem is they are tight on the legs and loose around the waist

Have you tried Old Navy Sweetheart jeans? I have a small waist and larger legs. These fit me really well, no gap in the waist back. They also come in a short length.

I must have a big butt! I weigh less than some of you but wear bigger pants...?!

Currently about 120 pounds, size 6/8. Need to lose some fat, gain some muscle. Carry my fat in my butt, hips, upper thighs.

angel791

You are doing great! I'm 5'3 and weigh 130lbs. My goal weight is 125. I am a size 4. My goal is to have my measurement in proportion. I need to lose one inch off my waist and hips. Good luck!

adelareto

You inspire me.....I am currently 245 down 15 pounds from my heaviest! I was looking at this post and was kinda surprised. I am a size 18 W right now. I see a lot of people that way much less than myself at the same size?? It is funny how body sizes are so different.

rbn_held

I'm 5'3, weigh 159 lbs and wear a size 12

Justacoffeenut

thanks for this thread. Great inspiration

hammys_wifey

I'm roughly 5'3, When I was at my heaviest I was 18 wearing a size 26 weighing about 290, I'm now 22 in a size 18-20 depending on the cut, weighing 237.

ashbergum

I think I'm broken lol...
5'3" exactly 138lbs wear a size 12 pants..

I have a very awkward body type, big boobs and stomach, with a million stretch marks and c-section overhang... & no butt to hold pants on.. I hate wearing jeans for this reason.
I've been Getting Walmart brand pants though, maybe I need to try a different brand?

rlv2680

I'm 5'3 and currently 131 (can't wait until I FINALLY get out of the 130s). I started at 145 in sizes 8 to 10. I'm wearing a size 6 now, which are starting to get baggy so I could probably fit into a size 4 in some brands. I'm waiting until I get to a solid size 4 before I buy new clothes though.

Ideally, I'd like to be some where between 110 and 115 but I'd be happy with a really toned/buff 120.

omg^^ this is exactly me to the T! except i'm 132 currently

raevynn

I am 5'3" exactly.

When I weighed 282, I had one pair of size 26 slacks I could wear.

At 257, I wore size 24 pants (and shirts)

At 223, I wear a size 18w pants

We'll see how it goes from here.

cmm7303

I started MFP in January at 208 and a size 16.
When I got married, 9 years ago, I was a size 13 and 150.
Back when I was 14, pre-puberty, I was a size 9/11 and 130 lbs.

I don't look 200lbs now, anymore than I looked 150 lbs when I got married. I've got a large frame and carry a LOT of muscle (played football in high school, rugby in college, and spent the years following college lifting a 300lb paraplegic brother). Still, 150 lbs was prior to the birth of my 2 children, so I'm shooting for 170.

jennyegan7210

I'm 5'3 and started at 150lbs size 9/10. I'm currently 138lbs, and my jeans are all too big. I refuse to go shopping though until I weigh 130. My UGW is 115. I know that I used to weigh 107lbs and wore a size 2. I would be happy in a size 4 though. I did however get a new top recently and it was a small for the first time in 2 years!

Allie_71

5'3 and 155 lbs currently. I'm a size 8/10 and would like to get into a 6. I started off at 227 and a size 20.

abbiecat

I'm roughly 5'3 and now weigh 153 lbs and wear anything from a UK size 12 to an 18 (US size 8-14 I believe). It really depends what clothes shop I'm in and I'm very top heavy!

faithstephenson

I started at 301 lbs, wearing size 28/30 jeans. I'm now 208, wearing size 16. Last time I wore size 16, I was at least 15 lbs lighter, if not 20-25. My goal is 140-150, and I have no idea what size that will end up being.

here_I_go_again

I am 5'2" and weigh 149, I"m in a size 10. Want to get to size 6 and have muscle strength and be muscular. I want to lose my body fat. BTW , I am 48.
