Bump

Ok I must just be very odd or something because I weigh 280lbs and can fit a size 16

It must be something to do with your figure. I dunno. Are you tall?

I am taller than most in this thread at 5'8" but when I weighed 307 (my all time high) I could still fit in any 22, I think I owned ONE pair of 24 pants.

From weighing 307 to 264 I STILL pretty much wore a 22.

Now I am 232 lb and most 18s fit me but I still need a 20 in a few brands out there.

I'm 5'7".

Here is my starting MFP (I had lost 30+ on my own before that)

Here is me at my current weight (148), a few weeks ago, before starting heavy weights:

I'm thinner now, but still the same weight, no update pic on that yet, though.

emirror · July 2013

I am 5'7 Here i am at my biggest around 245-250
And me now at 193.6
Before photos i was in a size 20
and now i am in 16 some 14's.

Awesome progress! And, I love your hair! I'm trying to grow mine out to classic (with a short layover at tailbone), so I am envious of yours!

Kudos to all the wonderful pals! Compared to the achievements of many others' mine is miniscule: i am 5.5 and lost 22 lbs to date (SW: 145 CW: 123) in the past 8 weeks. I still have about 5 lbs to go to achieve my goal weight. Will post pics soon!

Now the hardest part is upon me: maintaining!

SezxyStef · August 2013

I am 5'7 and starting weight I think was 205 (2010). The 2nd pic is June of this year at 175. Mind you I am large framed (bone measurments tell me so) and I wear a size 10 (but it's a bit loose now).

My goal atm is 165 (10lbs to go) then perhaps 150...I will see after I get to my first goal.

Edit for pic size

PS the dress has a built in body control sheath...eeek

You look great. Congrats for being brave.

At the risk of being thought of weirdly, I want to post my success story in the opposite direction...

I am recovered from anorexia. It's been a long, hard road, and I still have really tough mental days, but I'm proud of how much I've overcome and the health I have restored. MFP has been so helpful for me so I can keep myself in check to make sure that I'm getting enough nutrition, and the accountability of my open diary helps. In the first two pictures, I was 79lbs and 94lbs... those were taken 5-6 years ago. The last two I am between 120-125. Now that I'm maintaining, I rarely weigh myself - I gauge it by how my clothes fit. I haven't looked at these pictures side by side until now... it really makes me see how good health looks on me!
