    Currently 142 and a (UK) size 12, though they are getting loose so guessing I could squeeze in a 10?? My heighest weight was about 172, and I was a 14 (though I stuck to too tight 12s most of the time :blushing: )

    I'm 5'4", SW 216 size 20, CW 197 size 16/18. GW is 135 size 6/8. I have an hourglass shape, very large bust and booty. :) When I lose weight, I lose it there last, so many times I'll have jeans that are huge in the waist, but fit fine in the hips and butt. My tops are always XL, but hoping that when I reach my goal weight that I can wear a M. :)

    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.

    I'm 5'2". I'm just starting out and I'm at 145, wearing a size 10-12 (although my waist is more of a 8). I have a VERY athletic build and my thighs give me all sorts of trouble when it comes to sizes. I can wear a size 6-8 dress and a medium shirt. Crazy how differently everyone is sized!

    Size 20 jeans right now, I wear way more mens t-shirts than women's so I couldn't really tell you that size, probably a L.

    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.
