    WOW the differences are insane. I weigh 150lb and wear 12/14 UK size, which is 10/12 US.

    No Joke!!! When I am your weight I am a UK size 10-12 :o)

    I'm surprised myself.
    Back in the 80s (ahem) when I weighed 150ish, I wore a 12 or 14. It took getting to the lower 140s to
    fit in to a 9/10.
    I guess we're supposed to feel better thinking we're in smaller sizes. :smile:

    When I was 5'7" AND 175 lbs I was a size 12 in pants and large/XL shirts.
    I thought I was fat back then.
    Oh how wrong I was, hahah.

    I'm 5'7

    We will all vary depending on body shape.

    I have lost 80 lbs of post pregnancy weight.

    Before I was pregnant, I weighed 130-135 lb and wore a size 6.

    Generally I noticed that with my pear shape:

    Sizes are
    120-129 = size 4
    130-139 = size 6
    140-149 = size 8
    150-159= size 10
    160-169= size 12
    170-179= size 14

    My goal is to fit into a size 4. I have about 30 lbs to go.

    I'm 5'7 and I think a lot of this depends on how much muscle mass you have as well as body shape. when I was 140 about a year or so ago I was wearing a 4-6 or a 7 in juniors.

    Now I am around 150-153 and am wearing a 6 and haven't tried the fours because I just haven't. The 7's however still fit. I have noticed this go round with losing I am also lifting heavier weights so I have a little bit more muscle mass than I have before.

    I can't really say a certain weight and I'm a certain size. It can vary depending on several variables...

    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.

    I'm with you. At my highest (about 155) I was a 12 and those fit quite tight. Now I'm at about 142 and I'm still at a 10 (or some 8s but only in skirts, not pants). The lowest I've ever been was 121 (I lost the weight bc I was sick and I was totally skinny fat) and I still was no lower than a 6 in pants. I'm pear shaped but my measurements are 36-27.5-40.

    I'm in this club too. 155 and a 10 to 12 on bottom, medium to large on top. To wear a size 8 to 10 I've got to go down to mid 130s, and then I look gaunt and older than my age. Reading this thread has been discouraging. I mean, I knew I wasn't going to look amazing - too much excess skin for that - but I guess I also must look heavier than my actual weight to boot. :frown:
