    I'm 5'3 and I weigh 239.2 lbs. I wear a 18/20 US shirt and size 22 petite pants. The smaller I get, the more I must shop in the petite section, because my shoulders and hips are narrower than the average woman of the same weight and clothing size. I want to get down to 135-145 lbs and whatever size clothing I fit into is fine for me. More than likely I'll be a size 4 petite once I get down there, because I had lost weight and wore a size 8/10 at 186lbs.

    I'm 5'4", 193.5 (down 6.5 lbs) and wear a size 16 pants. Tops are x-L as I am a 44G in the boobs. Hope to get down to 135 and back to a 38 D (I'll accept a DD) and size 10-12.

    I am 5'6" currently at 148 lbs. I wear size 8 in ladies. (Will be getting down lower - Have too!!!)
    My measurements are 34, 29.5, 37
    Yea, I am a pear shaped lady. Usually wear size M tops. I like longer tops because I have such a long torso and short legs.

    5'9.5"
    155 lbs
    Size 10Long
    I have wide hips and a smaller waist, so I really can't get much smaller than size 8 no matter how thin I am. At my lightest (128) I was a size 7/8, but would also wear 9/10 in some brands. Weird how that works since I still can wear that same size.

    Hey,
    I am 5'6" 214 lbs and a size 14-16 or 1x US depending on manufacturer. My short term goal is to get back to 160 or size 7/8 with a long range goal of 145, size 5/6.

    5'6 200ish lbs. About a size 12. I'm an hourglass which I think has almost as much to do with my jean size as my weight does.

    I'm 5'11 266lbs and currently in a very loose size 20. Though, with vanity sizing how it is, it really depends on the cut, brand, and even the fabric what size I fit into. Since I stick with certain brands I'll stick with saying that's the size I am for now.

    When I was thin in my late teens I was 180 and a 14-16 depending. I'm aiming for that again. I was a rail at 14 though.

    Female, 5'7, weighing 135. My pants size is 6 (US) and dress size 4 (also US). T-shirt size is usally small or extra small. Petite on top, but curvy on the bottom! Isn't that always the way? :P

    I was wondering the same thing. I think it really depends on the shape - pear, apple, etc.
    I saw a magazine article once and it had 5 women that all wore the same size, but they were all different shapes and heights.

    I'm 5'6" - weight ranges from 144 - 149.

    US Size 4 in pants, skirts, dresses, etc (I can muffin top my way into a size 2, but it's not a pretty sight, so I stick with 4... hahaha)

    Size Small or Extra Small in tops. Although there is the odd medium top thrown in when they run smaller...

    227.1 (I've always worn my weight well, most who know me wouldn't guess me this high.)
    15-16 (US), very close to a 14, they're getting a bit loose on me.
    Female

    I was 263.9 in a 20 (US) last May 31, 2012 when I began this journey.

    I'm a banana shape. :o) But, I'm beginning to see my waist-line again, and having real curves. Here's to progress!

    Incredible how our bodies are so different, I'm 5'6" and 149lbs and I can uncomfortably squeeze into no smaller than a 5. I usually wear a 7 pants and medium shirt.

    My pants are a size 14 (US) and they are starting to fall off me.
    Depending on the shirt I can fit into a medium or small.

    Was going to post similar topic myself...
    I am 5'5 and weigh about 152 currently. I feel my thinnest when I am in the upper 130s... but what really floored me was the difference in sizes that we wear. I can wear size 4 jeans in a certain brand. Other brands I am a 6. When I am at my goal weight, or a little less (but still in the 130s) I have worn a 2. When I was at my heaviest years ago, I was wearing a size 12 or 14. I don't know if it is just body composition or what. I know I had read that designers are making their sizes "bigger" to appeal to people more... It just does not make any sense. Really makes you wonder...
