    5'7.5" here, and all legs. I usually buy long or tall or whatever, but sometimes I luck out and find a 'regular' that fits. As for my weight, I hit my highest in high school- something like 160 or 165. I dropped it in time for prom, thankfully, but gained it back in a few years when I started living on my own. In 2009 I became a vegetarian and started paying attention to what I ate, yo-yo-ed for a while, then stayed around 145 for what felt like forever. Since joining MFP I've gone down to about 130, which is exactly where I want to be :)

    I'm 5ft 7in and at my heaviest ever I was 213lbs (quite few years ago) last year I joined MFP when I weighed 165lbs and I'm now 125lbs :) I originally aimed to reach 140lbs that was my goal, but as you cant choose where to lose the weight from, I kept going as my hips/thighs/legs were still quite heavy. I kept at it hoping to look less pear shaped!
    I always had to buy long when I was fat - fat legs took up the length lol, but most of the time now regular fits - as long as I dont were heels! ;-) x

    I am 5'8" currently 144lbs aiming for 17% BF.

    Some jeans fit fine, others are a bit short. Often I buy tall and wear heels.

    Yep that's me... I started weight loss in the last week of January this year. Start weight was 312lbs. Today I'm 247 lbs. 3 dress size smaller, a great deal fitter :) I want to lose another 50 and then I'll re-evaluate :D Good luck with your weight loss. Once you get in the right mind frame, it's not as difficult as we dread :D

    Congrats on the weight loss. It is not as hard as we imagine it can be done.

    I'm 5'7" and started at 222. I never took a before photo, but now sorry that I didn't. Currently at 188 with my first goal set at 170. I will re-evaluate my goals once I reach 170. Ultimately probably 145-150.

    I'm 5'7 too. I'm about 184lbs now and have lost 49 lbs since my second child was born. Ideally I'd be happy losing another stone. I've never been a really light person as i played competitive tennis from the age of 5 right into my teens so that meant I always had a lot of muscle. If i lose any more than that i wont feel good.

    Currently training up so i can run a half marathon and the weight seems to be coming down with the intensity of my exercise. Eating decent amounts of good food with the occasional treat

    This is my first post. I started WW in the middle of January when I reached a high of 209 pounds. I switched to MFP about a month ago. I am currently 175. My main goal is a normal BMI which is 159 for 5'7". I'm not sure if I'll be happy there or not. Currently, I'm trying to tone more. I have noticed my pants length problem is better since I've lost weight. I walk a lot and my butt and thighs are more toned.
