    I am 5'8 and weigh 197 my pant size is about a 20 or 18W. This is the third time in here and I am just kind of coasting. Trying to see where I can cut my excessive eating. So far I think I have been helped just by learning the calories things have. Like tonight I ate 2 helpings of cheese and macaroni and they each were about 1/2 cup, but usually I just pile it in. I should have stuck with the one 1/2 cup serving could have saved me a lot of calories. I first started going bad when I quit smoking 7 years ago. I feel voracious about eating and cannot satisfy this deep hole.

    I am 5'7", 178 lbs, and I am in a size 12 :smile: My goal is to get into a 8/10 and be 160 lbs. 6 years ago I had anorexia and fit into a size 4 at 125 lbs and I didn't feel or look healthy at all. Every person's body is different.

    i love how we are all such different shapes and sizes!

    i am 5'7", 138# and wear a size 2/26 (occasionally 0/25). i have a vanity weight goal of 125...we'll see if i get there. i def believe that there is some vanity sizing going on with various brands/designers. i used to weigh 123-125 before my 4 kids (and back in high school, etc...) and i am pretty darn sure i wore a size 4!

    I'm 5"71/2" I maintain between 170-175; I'm 50 and wear 10s or 12s. I am more comfortable in 12s. med or large tops. I find that the more expensive brands, I can wear 10s comfortably. When I was in my early 20s and I weighed 150, I was wearing 12s. Going to get to 160 and should be in 10s.

    I'm 5'7 and weigh in st 213 and depending on the brand of jeans I can fit any where from size 11-14. I'm very big bones all the girls in my family are. Shirts I fit a large to xlarge depends on brand also. But my biggest problem is the length of the shirt I have huge boobs and the hike up my shirt a lot. I'd like to get to 175 and see how I feel at that weight

    I have huge boobs too!!!! They are a pin when I want to pick out a shirt.

    I'm 5'8" - my weight is about 135. I wear a size seven. I have the typical "hourglass" figure, so my pants have to fit my hips/butt, and I always need belts for the waist. Shirts I can vary from S-M. I'm only a B-cup, but sometimes the S shirts are tight on the tummy or arms.
    7 months ago I weighed 155 & I was wearing a size 11 pants & Medium shirts only.
    Brands are so weird though- I have a set of workout clothes & the pants are a Large & the top is a small . . . I think sometimes I need to buy larger pants b/c of my height, & I'm not even THAT tall!!

    I am 5'9". On 08/16/2012 I clocked 189LB. This was 61 LB loss in exactly 1 year. I started this "diet" at the age 49 with 254LBs weight and size 38 pants.

    On my 1 year weight loss anniversary I purchased size 32. I only bought one pair as I plan to get rid of another 10LB and get into the size 30.

    Meanwhile I raided my 24 year old's Salvation Army donation bag and pulled all of his 32 size shorts. :)

    Sizes in pants have changed drasticly since the 80s. My girls are 13 and 10 and it boggles me that the 13yr old is wearing size 11 jeans, she is skinny. My sister who has always been small and has old jeans she gave my 13yr old those old jeans and they are sizes 4 and 5. Thats a big difference. She feels fat because of her size 11 pants. The 10yr old is wearing women's large shirts I thought she would be atleast a medium or small in woman's. Something is definatly wrong with clothing sizes now.

    5'8, Current weight is around 155 and I wear a size 8 or a 10 (loose 10), VERY snug size 6. Medium in shirts. At my thinnest, I was 124 pounds, size 2 in most pairs of pants and shorts, XS in tops (no boobs!) That was the smallest I've ever been, would love to be able to fit into those pants and shorts again, and if I could choose, I'd keep the boobs (won't happen though if I lose the weight! Boobs are the first place the weight comes off for me!)

    First post; woot!

    I'm 5'8", 150lbs, and wear about a 10 in jeans. Tops vary from small to medium (mediums are often too big in the chest). I have more of pear shape, so I carry my weight in the hip/thigh area. Goal is to get to about 130lbs and a size 6 (ish). But, ultimately, to be the healthiest me I can be!

    I am 5'7 and weight 194 and a size 12/31 pants depending on brand. My goal is 160. I have never dieted before and this is all new to me, but I am trying. I follow a semi-paleo diet but allowed myself LOTS of 'cheats' and now the cheats have stopped. I eat low gluten and little dairy and focus on veg and protien with a few fruit servings.

    5'7" - flucutate between 132 - 137 pounds (a bit more because I quit smoking... grrrr...)
    Pants size - 2 or 4

    Sizes change with the times. I am sure I would NOT have been a 2 or 4 10 years ago.
