I'm a bit off kilter -- I weigh 165 and am 5'6", which is pretty close -- I am a size 14 on top and size 8-10 on bottom

Someone recently shared this site...thought it was pretty cool.

I love this site, but how does one have the shape of a banana? Lol! :laugh:

I'm 5'7.5" CW: 178 Size 14 pants (are loose) and L shirts.

Can't say too much about my size and what it should be because I haven't shopped for clothes very often while loosing weight. I'm guessing I could get into a 12 right now but I wouldn't know. I haven't tried on a dress in years so I couldn't give you what size that would be. I am looking to lose about 18 more pounds and hoping to be into a 10.

Love that body gallery site!

I am 5'7" and am 160 pounds currently. I wear a L shirt and a loose size 12 pants. Hope this helps. My goal weight is 135 size 6 or 4 and a size M shirt. We will see.

See this is what I don't understand. Most people my weight (171 atm) seem to be a size 12, 10....well I'm a 16. I can fit into a 14 but I get muffin top. WTH. It's very frustrating.

5'7
CW = 167lbs

Jeans 5-6 (NO REAR END AND LITTLE LEGS! - Love my dad but he could have kept that feature!)
Dress Pants 6-8
Underwear - SMALL! - TOLD YOU!
Shirts - Large to Extra Large (Built like a brick **** house up top, broad and strapping like all my maternal uncles!)

Seriously I have the classic apple shape. If you look at my before pics on my profile when I was very heavy it's easier to see that apple. (Ya know the fruit-of-a-loom Apple Guy?) SOOOO difficult to buy jeans because my waist is bigger than my hips so in order to avoid the muffin top I have to buy jeans to fit the waist and then it looks like I got a load in the back. )

We're all so very different and I am working on evening out my shape by lifting. Want to bulk the rear and legs so it gives the illusion that I have a waist

Best of luck!

Wow, I thought I was the only female built like this!! It's so hard to find pants that fit and I have a hard time buying dresses too. My shoulders and back are very broad (strong, like bull) so I still wear between a 14 and 16 in dresses. I can wear a size 8 - 10 in pants.

It's amazing how different we all are.

I'm 5'7" - at my heaviest I was about 173. I could squeeze into an 8 pants (a little tight) and was busting out of large tops. Now I'm at 143 and size 6 pants are a little big and I can wear a M-L top (still a DD). I have about 8# to go before I'm happy with "the number". I imagine I'll be about a 4-6 pants and hope to be a M top by then.

I don't think that weight is all that matters with the size of your pants. Of course some but it is not all determined by the scale. When I was at my highest weight of 195 I wore a size 14. I am at 165 now and wear an 8. I have worn a size 8 for the last 10-15 lbs. My body has changed shape more than I have lost weight.

I'm 5'7" - currently 217lbs (working off the baby weight from my newborn) and I'm in a size 14. My best weight is 185, and I fit a size 8 and a medium. I carry my weight very differently than a lot of people!

Hey... I am:

height: 5'7
weight: 201 (started journey at 208)
pants: 14-16
tops: XL (I am DDD.. very busty)
Goal weight: 145-150

I am curvy and my weight distributes pretty evenly. Everyone is shocked to hear I am 200lbs. When I am 150, I look and feel great and that puts me in a size 8-9 which is exactly where I want to be. Any smaller than that and I look anorexic! Think because of my large bust.

i'm 5'8" and at my heaviest i was 164 and a size 10-12/31. i've lost 25 pounds and am back to a size 6/28.

Hi, i am 5'6.5 and currently 175 pounds. I wear size 16 in pants and a medium or large shirt size. All my extra weight is in my lower half which makes me a very obvious pear shape lol.

I'm 5'7"...

Juniors sizes:

Bottoms - 11
Tops - L
Dresses - 13

Adult sizes:

Bottoms - 6-10 (depends on brand)
Tops - M-XL (depends on brands)
Dresses - 8-14 (yes, still depends on brands)

I'm fairly chesty, so that is always an issue, even when I am at my fit weight. I've never been below 152 in my adult life, and in the 152-155 range I am pretty ripped. I'd like to get into the 140s just to see how it goes, but if it takes a crazy amount of maintenance, I'd be perfectly happy to just be in the 150s

I'm 5'6" (sorry with heels I could be 5'7" :laugh: ), 164, size 6 US/Can pants.. when I was 175lbs, I was a size 12/13?

KathyPBiles

I'm 5'7 - currently 187.5 - wear a L shirt (think I could probably wear a medium) and 14 pant (think I could wear a 12). Goal is 155 - will probably be in medium shirt and 10 pant.

poseyj88

I'm 5'7.5" and 153 lbs. I'm hourglass/leaning-towards-pear shaped and I'm an 8 to 10 on the bottom (10s are loose). At 145 (my goal) I'm a 6 to 8.

Tops are M, dresses are 6-10 (depends on the fit) or M.
