    I am 5'8" and weigh 195. I wear a size 14 pants and a large shirt. I am pear shaped. When I get in the 180's(been there before) I'll be wearing some 12's and some 14's depending on the cut of the pants etc.

    I'm 5'6" here is a pic of me most likely weighing exactly 195...excuse the hair I am at a Halloween party and tried to dress as "Deb" from Napoleon Dynamite.

    I would have been wearing a size 14, or 15 in juniors although I rarely wore juniors I always felt like they gave me a "muffin top". My tops would have been XL unless it was a store that tended to run big, like Old Navy or if it didn't seem unflattering when the top was more fitted.

    At 190 pounds I could still wear a 12 but only if it had stretch. If the waistband of the pants did not have stretch I could zip them but it would gather all my fat to just above the pants making me look like I had a pair of spanx gone wrong.

    5' 6.5"

    I was a size 14 pretty consistently. A couple size 12 items. For shirts mostly XL because I have a broad back, chest and arms.

    This is a dress shot

    the sizes vary by height, and build so you really can't go by size. I am 5"4 inches tall , broad shoulder, big boned, atheletic type build so when I was 195 pounds I was a size 18 regular in jeans and on top a size XL

    To add ... I am so bloody grateful I checked the location of some of you guys before I cried myself to sleep! Where you said a size 10-12, I started freaking out. Now I see the parity, I am not alone! Whew!

    (FYI UK size 10-12 is US 6-8)

    I'm almost 5'8" and when I weighed 198 lbs I was squeezing into a size 16. I was an XL or XXL in tops, because I'm very hourglassy, I have a very narrow ribcage/waist (31" at nearly 200 lbs) and all my weight is in my hips and boobs. I'm about 23 lbs less than that now and I'm still a loose-fitting 14. The only exception seems to be t-shirts; since those stretch, they were a L before and are now a M. I've gone down 2 cup sizes in bras too :(
