    I'm 5'4 and weigh 137 pounds and I'm in a size 6/4. Last time I got down to 125 pounds I was in a 4/2

    I started the journey at 278 and wore a size 24 jeans.

    I now weigh around 138 and wear a 6 or 8, depending. I still have large thighs.

    I wear a size small shirt.

    It's nuts..... and hard to get used to. I still catch myself in the mirror and think, is that me?? And it's been four years.

    You definitely aren't crazy. Congratulations....your size will depend on your height and your build. Your math seems to be on the spot, though.
    I started at 247 lbs. also and

    In 1999 I weighed 165 and wore a size 12. I'll be thrilled if I can get back to that size.
    Even though I weighed the same as you when I started eating healthier I wear a size 20.

    Some of it will depend on body composition, too. I'm 5'6"-ish, 156 lbs, currently wearing 10-12. Two years ago I was 155 lbs, wearing a 2-4. Almost a decade ago, I weighed between 115 - 120 lbs, and wore a 4-6 (adjusted for vanity sizing, probably 0-2).

    You have to take intro account not only height and weight but body shape as well. I am almost 5'6. When I am about 200lbs I am a size 14 in most stores. Everyone is different though :)

    Wow!! Thank you all for the responses! I'm glad I asked you guys!
    Being a size 6 or less (depending on brand) really blows my mind and I'm really glad to see others my height and goal weight and their sizes. This helps a lot! Thank you all bunches!!!
