Height, weight, size?

Options
I am a tall girl, and around a size 12-14. I'm 5'10, and 193 lbs. I'm just curious as to what others are, I'm not sure if its even possible to be a size 5 at my height. Just wanted to know if anyone else wanted to share. Thanks!

    I am 5'11" and weigh 161.4 lbs....I am trying to get down to 155, but if I can't get there I will be ok with just toning up. I wear a size 10 or 12 depending on the brand.

    I want to know this, too!! Both of you have me excited to get down that small. I'm 5'10" and I currently weigh 224. I'm wearing size 18-20 right now. I don't remember ever wearing anything that wasn't considered "plus size". I would love to be in a 10!!!!

    I'm glad everyone decided to share! I agree I'm glad we can post and feel comfortable. I think that's the first step is admitting our size and weight, can't say I've told anyone else this, atleast without fudging the truth a little. My new fave quote I've seen on so many other posts, "nothing tastes as good as being thin feels!" Amen! Something that tastes good only brings a few minutes of joy, where as meeting a new goal brings more joy, and its longer lasting!

    yea, like i said im quite tall. and my bone structure is really really big. not just using the ol' 'im big boned!' an excuse

    a ten would be amazing to get into, i dont think my hips would fit in anything smaller. i had exposed ribs and serious hip bones at 180. but i was still unhappy as can be. at 180 i was a 12.


    oops that was supposed tbe quoting someone up there!

    but to reply to that quesiton, which i totally missed. id prob say yes. a 16 while it is a bigger number, would still look better! slimmer even because youll be held together well.

    i wore one of those silly sexy halloween costumes even this year, and yea it was a 1x but i got compliements alll night about how good i looked. now if ihad squeezed into a normal large i woulda just been a stuffed sausage

    I'm 5'8, 196pds and fit in a size 12-14 jeans. When I was a freshman in high school and my skinniest (I think I was 138pd) I squeezed into a size 6 for about a month I think. Even if I lost enough weight to be "underweight" for my height I don't think my hips would allow me to ever fit into a size 4 or smaller. I'm hoping to eventually get down to a size 8-10 by summer!

    Thanks for posting this, as I've always wondered as well!

    I'm 5'6" and 201 lbs. I currently wear a size 14 but can now squeeze into a 12 if I don't want to be comfortable or look good! I'm hoping to get back into the size 10s that I wore my senior year of high school.

    There's not much you can do about bone structure. I have the opposite issue. I have narrow hips but broad shoulders and a large rib cage. When I was underweight in my teens (hard to imagine that now), I wore size 3 or 5 in pants but a 10 or 12 on top.

    I'm 5'6 1/2 and my curent weight is 165. My jeans size is 12 and I wear medium tops. My goal weight is 135 and I would like to be a solid 8/10. Even when I have been at my lowest weight and was thin ( around 135) the smallest size pants I could get into was an 8 and only in a few brands. I really do think it has alot to do with your structure. I am not a tiny girl even when I am at my thinnest
