    1. Try different excercises, sometimes we need to use different muscle groups. This usually works for me. I rotate between water aerobic and stationary bike. This can make a huge difference.

    2. Be sure to count calories. It's a necessary evil.

    3. Increase length of exercise. Maybe it's time to add another half hour. I won't work out more than 2 hours a day.

    I am 5'4
    Currently 151 lbs
    US size 6.

    I started at 180 lbs
    US size 10.

    Everyones body type is different. No one believed me when I said I was 151lbs. According to them, I look 130. My doctor asked me 2x to confirm my weight because he didnt believe it either.

    this totally depends on where I buy my pants from. I can vary up to 2 to 3 sizes because of that.

    I'm 5'2"
    SW was 217, I was usually a size 16 or 18 pants.
    CW is 182, size 12 or 14 pants.
    GW is 135, I hope to be at least a size 7.

    Size 6 at 151 sounds really good! You must have a lot of muscle! I'm 5'2", but at my lowest weight of 120, I was a size 5.

    You sound like me. I'm currently 150 and wearing size 6. I had been down to ~138-140 and wearing a 4. I'm 5'4" also.

    I'm 5'4". And 43 years old. I think age is an important factor because my body has changed over the years.

    SW - 165# Size 12. They were not too big, not too small. So solidly in a 12.

    CW - 143# Size 8 and 10. About half of my pants are an 8 and half a 10, although I noticed this morning several 10s are getting too big

    GW - 125# (I think I still have 130# on MFP - been too chicken to change it since I decided on 125). That should have me in size 4 and 6.

    Thanks to no consistency in clothing sizes, I started at 5'5 and 160 pounds and a size 12, 10 or 8. Now at about 130-135, I'm a 2, 4 or sometimes 6.

    In Juniors, I can wear a 3, 5, 7, 9 or 11. :indifferent:

    Good thing I'm not hung up on sizes.

    im 5'5" weight 160 now size 12pants
    goal 5'5" weight 145.....platued and cant get outta it help

    You're ME! I'm 5'5, 160 and plateaued...Maybe I got over it -- I'm 159.2 as of last weighing, yesterday. It's a tiny drop, but after seeing 160 for freakin' 2 months straight (after having done everything the same that got me down to that weight in the first place) was annoying!

    As for me, I'm size 12 right now. At my thinnest, I was 125 and fit into a size 4. I was shocked. Hoping to get down to an 8 or so.

    Edit: As a note I got the transfer sizes online, so my US sizes may be way out! The UK sizes are accurate though. :)

    The difference is one size less in North America :) But shoes are one size bigger.

    Imagine my horror when I moved to the UK from Canada and thought my butt had increased a size over the Atlantic and my feet had shrunk!
