5'4" and a size 10

If you are 5'3"-5'4" about how much did you weigh as a size 10? I have this dress...my inspiration dress that still has the tags on, and I'm wondering how far I have to go to get to wear it.

    I am 5'3" 180 pounds...I am in a size 12 right now, so I would guess that at 160-170 I will be able to fit in a 10. I also have a dress I bought at the beggining of my journey that is a size 10....it will be a happy day when I can wear it! Good luck!!

    Hey I think it depends on your body type. I'm a pear shape so I carry my weight on my hips. I was around 147lbs and in a size ten in Gap pants. However I was running 3 miles a day so while I was still heavy for my height 5'4 but I had lost so many inches. When I first started losing I was a size 14 and 165 lbs in Gap and New York and company pants. Now I'm around 120 in a size 6 in Anne Taylor jeans and a size 8 in Gap jeans. It sucks for me because I carry my weight in my butt, hips, and thighs. Hope that helps.

    I would agree with this. I'm 5'4" and expect to be a size 10 probably at around 165.

    I wore a 10 when I was about 140-150 or so (I'm 5'3", though). It all depends on your body type and how you like your clothes, though. I absolutely hate when my pants are too tight.

    I'm around 157 right now, and in a loose 10. I carry most of my weight in the middle.

    For me, size 10 = 155-165 ish

    At my lowest weight I was 138 and in a size 10, but I really think it varies from person to person. I didn't exercise much, so I didn't have much muscle weight.

    By the way- I'm 5'3 1/2"

    I weigh 145 and really struggle to get into size 10 jeans - but I do have one hell of a muffin top - more like a black forest gateaux top really........

    :ohwell:

    I shop at Wallis whenever I can as their clothes seem to be cut larger - bit of a cheat but makes you feel better.

    Well I'm 5'4 and weigh 167 pounds. I am wearing a size 11 jeans right now. Hopefully that gives you an idea? I think it depends on how your weight is distributed...I don't have a butt so that makes it easier for me.

    I'm 5'3.5" and I was in a 10 at around 165. I can't wait to get back there!

    I'm 5'3". When I wore a size 10, I weighed around 145. I'm also pear-shaped and carry all my weight in my hips and butt, so it depends on your body composition. When I was 155, I wore a size 12!

    I'm 5'4" and about 180 pounds right now. When I was about 160-165 I could comfortably fit into a 10. I carry most of my weight in my hips and thighs though, so it depends on your body type. My goal right now is to get back down to 150-ish so I can fit into my size 9 and size 11 jeans again. I miss them lol.

    I'm 5'2 .75 and I weigh 172 in a 10. My waist is the issue but my bottom is small. It depends on how you carry your weight.

    I'm 5'3, weight about 173ish and i've been in a size 10 for a bit... i have a big butt and big thighs but my waist is pretty small... i was in a size 12 by about 180.. everyones body is so different!.. i know people at my weight in an 8 .. i also know people in a 14.. i have a good amount of muscle mass so maybe that's why i am able to pull it off?

    I'm 5'5" and I'm a size UK12 at 146lb. Depends on your frame, whether you exercise etc. Tried on a pair of size 10 trousers today and they fit, but were tight on the thighs because I'm a cyclist and have big legs!

    Check out www.mybodygallery.com

    It could easily be from 130-180 depending on how lean you are and where you carry your weight.

    Take measurements now, and don't forget to strength train to see more inch loss.

    I'm 5'4 and a pear shape. I currently weigh 152 and easily fit in most size 10s. That said, since I'm only 3 months post-partum, I'm hanging on to a good amount of weight in my mid-section. If the weight were distributed more to the rest of my body, I'd probably fit into a size 8 in a few brands.

    When I weigh 130, I'm a size 6-8. When I weigh 160 and don't work out (i.e., all the weight is fat) then I'm more like a 12.

    I'm 5'3" and for me to get back into my size 10 jeans from Express, I'll need to weigh about 145 pounds. I don't wear any jeans that show muffin top spilling over. I see women doing that a lot... has to be very uncomfortable.

    I am an apple shape. It has been about a decade since I was a size 10, but I was around 150# when I was.

    I'm 5'4, 158 lbs and a solid size 10. My goal is to fit in a size 8 whether it be weight loss or inches lost. It doesn't matter to me what the scale reads because I started lifting weights and I know muscle weights more, so I expect to gain a few pounds while losing inches.
