    I have found that most stores have their own idea what each size is and so I've decided on the measurements I'd like to reach instead lol. ATM I am anything from a UK 12 to a 16 depending on where I look. This is a very useful little calculator I thought I would share :smile: http://sizes.darkgreener.com/

    Edit for spelling.

    A perfect 8. I'm pretty tall and have a "shapely" behind so I know anything smaller than that and i'll be too thin. I'd be really happy with a 10 again (I miss those days :) )

    Right now I'm an 8, I would like to go down another size and be a comfortable 6. I have a large muscular frame so I probably won't be able to get any smaller. I wouldn't complain if I maintained my current weight. My prom dress from 4 years ago was a 15/16, and lately when I've been feeling big I put that on and it's such a great visual reminder when it literally falls off me.
  • I would love to get to size 12-14.

    At my highest I was probably a size 10 at least. Right now I'm about at a size 4-6 in pants and a size 6-8 in shirts. I'd love to be a solid lower number for both of those, but it's no longer about just losing weight for me anymore.

    I have a large frame - at my smallest my jeans size was a 12. Maybe because I will always have a booty. :)

    I would love to get into a loose 12! I would call myself thick from head to toe so it takes a good 20 lbs to loose one size!!!

    I would just be happy to be able to shop at the mall and go into most stores, rather than just two, and find things that fit me. So that takes me to needing to be roughly size 12-14 before that will start happening around here.
  • I'm currently using size 13 but I would love to re-use a size 9...

    Eh, I can't think in terms like that because sizing is so super wonky all around for women. If you make your emotional well-being contingent on being size X but you try on jeans that look amazing on you but are size X+2 because that line runs small or whatever, it only serves to make you crazy.

    This is the truth! In my favorite brand and fit of jeans, I am a size 7/8. I can get the same brand in a different fit and have to go up to a 9/10. I would rather be happy with how my body looks in and out of clothes.

    10 in most clothes, 12 in jeans. No smaller, as 90% of my wardrobe is that size range, and I refuse to buy more clothes.

    At my highest, I had a size 10, but now I'm a 4. Ideally, I'd like to be a size 2, but I'm not sure that'd be realistic for me. My goal is to have roomy 4s.

    I'm currently a 6-8 and aiming for a 4. I haven't been a 4 since before kids so we will see.

    I want to be a size 6 and that's the goal I'm working towards. I started out in a 22 and am now a 10.
  • A size 8. I'm wearing a size 16 right and my goal is to get into a size 8 by June.

    I was a size 13, and im current a size 3 juniors. But I can also fit into size 0 shorts! So Im pretty happy!
  • I hope everyone meets there jean size. Its a thrill when you go shopping a find out you met goal. But with my self I never seem satisfied. My first goal when I was a tight 18 was 11 then I blew my mind into a 4.

    I am currently in the smallest size I have been in since puberty, not bad for a woman in her early 40s!

    Anyway I am currently in a size 6, I'm 5'11". All through high school I was size 10 so I have to say I am where I never thought I would be.

    At my heaviest I was in a size 16 and they were tight.
  • I would like to be a 12, but I can't maintain that lifestyle. I will be happy to maintain at a 14 at 48 years old and 2 kids and 1 c-section.

    My ideal size would be a "regular" instead of "petite", but unfortunately I can't do much about that ; )

    LOL - me too! I always felt if I was just a bit taller it would solve all my problems, lol.
  • I'm currently a size 8 or 10 and my ideal size is a 2 or 0.

    The largest size jeans I ever wore were an 18! I currently wear a 10 or 8 depending on brand, and ideally I want to fit into a 4/6!

    I'm currently an 8 and would like to be a 2 or a 4. I'll know when I get there.
