    I'm 5'8" I think.

    At my heaviest I was 167 and I wore size 12 pants, sometimes 14.
    XL top

    I'm currently 144, wanting to get down to 135.
    size 8 pants, L top (broad shoulders, fairly big bust)

    I have a small frame, straight body shape- measurements are 38-32-38.
    I would love to get some more fat off of my mid-section!

    I'm 5' 7.5" and am currently 150. I wear anywhere from a size 4 (slacks) to an 8 jean. Typically settle around a 6. I wear small or medium shirts.

    I am 5'7"...SW = 169, CW = 133
    My goal is to stay between 130-134...
    I started at size 12, lg. tops
    Now I am size 4 in most pants, sm. tops
    I am happy with most parts of my body currently except the lower "rear" portion. Fortunately, few will ever see it! :)

    I am 5'7. 1/2"
    Current weight approx 152lbs wearing a M/L dress
    Size 9 - 11 JR pants
    M-L shirts depending on the fit I want (I'm picky)
    I find it varies quite a bit depending on brand/fit of the clothing!!!

    At my lowest adult eight approx 130-135 I was a size 7 JR

    In high school I could wear a size 5 JR

    I'm a bit off kilter -- I weigh 165 and am 5'6", which is pretty close -- I am a size 14 on top and size 8-10 on bottom

    I'm 5'7.5" CW: 178 Size 14 pants (are loose) and L shirts.

    Can't say too much about my size and what it should be because I haven't shopped for clothes very often while loosing weight. I'm guessing I could get into a 12 right now but I wouldn't know. I haven't tried on a dress in years so I couldn't give you what size that would be. I am looking to lose about 18 more pounds and hoping to be into a 10.

    Love that body gallery site!

    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.

    5'7
    CW = 167lbs

    Jeans 5-6 (NO REAR END AND LITTLE LEGS! - Love my dad but he could have kept that feature!)
    Dress Pants 6-8
    Underwear - SMALL! - TOLD YOU!
    Shirts - Large to Extra Large (Built like a brick **** house up top, broad and strapping like all my maternal uncles!)

    Seriously I have the classic apple shape. If you look at my before pics on my profile when I was very heavy it's easier to see that apple. (Ya know the fruit-of-a-loom Apple Guy?) SOOOO difficult to buy jeans because my waist is bigger than my hips so in order to avoid the muffin top I have to buy jeans to fit the waist and then it looks like I got a load in the back. :()

    We're all so very different and I am working on evening out my shape by lifting. Want to bulk the rear and legs so it gives the illusion that I have a waist :)

    Best of luck!

    Wow, I thought I was the only female built like this!! It's so hard to find pants that fit and I have a hard time buying dresses too. My shoulders and back are very broad (strong, like bull) so I still wear between a 14 and 16 in dresses. I can wear a size 8 - 10 in pants.

    It's amazing how different we all are.

    I'm 5'7" - at my heaviest I was about 173. I could squeeze into an 8 pants (a little tight) and was busting out of large tops. Now I'm at 143 and size 6 pants are a little big and I can wear a M-L top (still a DD). I have about 8# to go before I'm happy with "the number". I imagine I'll be about a 4-6 pants and hope to be a M top by then.

    I don't think that weight is all that matters with the size of your pants. Of course some but it is not all determined by the scale. When I was at my highest weight of 195 I wore a size 14. I am at 165 now and wear an 8. I have worn a size 8 for the last 10-15 lbs. My body has changed shape more than I have lost weight.

    I'm 5'7" - currently 217lbs (working off the baby weight from my newborn) and I'm in a size 14. My best weight is 185, and I fit a size 8 and a medium. I carry my weight very differently than a lot of people!

    Hey... I am:

    height: 5'7
    weight: 201 (started journey at 208)
    pants: 14-16
    tops: XL (I am DDD.. very busty)
    Goal weight: 145-150

    I am curvy and my weight distributes pretty evenly. Everyone is shocked to hear I am 200lbs. When I am 150, I look and feel great and that puts me in a size 8-9 which is exactly where I want to be. Any smaller than that and I look anorexic! Think because of my large bust.

    Hi, i am 5'6.5 and currently 175 pounds. I wear size 16 in pants and a medium or large shirt size. All my extra weight is in my lower half which makes me a very obvious pear shape lol.

    I'm 5'7"...

    Juniors sizes:

    Bottoms - 11
    Tops - L
    Dresses - 13

    Adult sizes:

    Bottoms - 6-10 (depends on brand)
    Tops - M-XL (depends on brands)
    Dresses - 8-14 (yes, still depends on brands)

    I'm fairly chesty, so that is always an issue, even when I am at my fit weight. I've never been below 152 in my adult life, and in the 152-155 range I am pretty ripped. I'd like to get into the 140s just to see how it goes, but if it takes a crazy amount of maintenance, I'd be perfectly happy to just be in the 150s =)

    I'm 5'7 - currently 187.5 - wear a L shirt (think I could probably wear a medium) and 14 pant (think I could wear a 12). Goal is 155 - will probably be in medium shirt and 10 pant.

    I'm 5'7.5" and 153 lbs. I'm hourglass/leaning-towards-pear shaped and I'm an 8 to 10 on the bottom (10s are loose). At 145 (my goal) I'm a 6 to 8.

    Tops are M, dresses are 6-10 (depends on the fit) or M.
