    In 8 weeks I went from a size 18W to a size 12 jean, and from a XXL shirt to a medium. If you want to learn how I did that
    contact me and Ask Me How

    I'm going for 8/10. I like how I look at that size. Started out at 18/20 got down to 16 in 3 months and then found out I'm pregnant. After the baby and some rest I'll be back at it.

    I currently dont have a clue what my size is. if i had to guess, maybe a size 12/13? I would love to be in the single digits. I've never been in that territory before...

    The lowest size I have ever been is a size 14. My ideal Wgt is 12. I purchased my first 12 dress pants yesterday. Started out ask 14W/16W could wear some 16 dresses. Yelp 12 will be good for me.

    I would like to be a size 12 (UK) which I think is a 10 in USA but not sure. I am a 16 jeans (UK) now and 14 on top.

    If I could buy clothes off the regular racks in regular stores, and not the plus-size racks or stores, I'd be a very happy woman!

    I started at a size 13, and XL in tops. I'm now a pretty comfortable 11 and a Medium in top. I wanna get to size 9, just because I've got a pair of shorts in that size and I'm soo close to fitting them.

    I've been a size 3 before (no idea what I am now. Pregnant) and would LOVE to be that size again; I felt great, was eating healthy and working out and I wasn't gaunt looking.

    I am still in either junior sizes or jeans that go by numbers like men's, not typical 6, 8, 10's. Whatever that sizing is called, haha. In juniors my highest size was a 9, right now I am a 5/7. I like where I am :) much happier than when I was in 3's and 0's, during college. I was way too old to be wearing jeans that tiny! with the other jeans though, I am in a 26W (which I believe is a size 4 in women's). But I would like to tone up a bit to get into my size 25W that I got for Christmas two years ago. Still can't wear them and be comfy :(

    I started at a size 8-10, mostly 10 in pants 8 in dresses, but now I straddle the 4-6 range for everything just depending on the brand. I'd be happy being a solid 4

    I guess if I had to specify, I would like to end up as a comfortable size 10 (uk) . But in any case, getting thin isn't what I am here for, as long as I get to a healthy weight and learn to be comfortable in my own skin, size is immaterial to me :smile:

    A size 8!

    I currently wear a size 8 10 or 12 depending not the brand. Sometimes I can even fit a 6! it just depends not he brand's vanity icing.

    I am mostly a 10 right now. I'd love to be mostly an 8.

    * when i say mostly i mean when i go to the tore I want to pick out something I like and pick up an 8 in it and not have to pick up various sizes to see what fits. Generally always an 8*

    :-) However If I am stuck at a 10 but still lost the weight I want to and gained the muscle definition I want to then i will be ECSTATIC and I don't care about pant size :)

    I went from a size 10 to a size 4 and I've been stuck at 4 however I'm still not satisfied, My goal would be a size 2 :)
    I'm fine with my current size- six (loose, because I like room in my clothes), a few size four, size smalls, and I have no desire to go any lower.

    However, I once wore a very tight size 18 and extra large and was 220 lbs at 5 ft 4.

    My question to you, which is meant with no ill intent: if you are not satisfied now with a size four, what makes you think you will be satisfied in a size two?

    I want to go back to a size 4. How Did you do it?

    I think it all has to do with your height and body structure. I am 5'9" so realistically, a size 2 on me would make me look like I am starving where as my 5'2" friend can pull it off.

    I am comfortable at a size 10. I usually cannot maintain a 6 or 8 for very long.

    Yes! This! ^^^

    This is what I was thinking while I was going through this post! I've been in Plus Sizes since I was in the 6th grade!! I would be over the moon if I could wear a regular 12 or 14. 10 and I might fall on the ground and cry with joy.

    At this time i dont know my ideal size would be, my smallest size as an young adult was size 16, so i think i should start there and see in a few years.

    I feel good and I think I look good in a size 8. I feel fat in a size 10. I guess a 6 would be okay too lol!

    I was a size 16 heading into an 18...I am currently a size 8. I'd like to lose another 10 lbs however fat is natures Botox and I do not want to look too thin and wrinkly in my face ( I am 46) right now I am working on toning and getting strong!

    Women's sizing is crazy and unreliable.

    I am in a size 4 at American Eagle. About a month ago was pushing a 6 but lost a few lbs and the 4's are beginning to get baggy. I wear a 3/4 in Delia's jeans ( the only place that has a 28 inseam ) and a size 5 in Levi's.

    I wear a small to a medium in shirts, depending on the brand and style.

    Bra size is currently a 32D. Was a 32DD pushing a 34DD before I lost this weight.

    My ideal jean size is a 2/3. My ideal shirt size is an extra small to a small. My ideal bra size is like a 32C-ish.

    I Thought I would be happy as a 12 then when I got there I wasn't. I'm a pretty solid 8 especially in dresses and a medium in most shirts. I never thought I could imagine myself as a 6, but now that I have reached my goal...Maybe???

    I would love to be either a size 12 or 10!
    No desire to become a size six , four or two. My body build would not look right.
    But also able to walk into a store and try something on cute in a regular size, instead of plus size is going to be a happy day!

    Depends on where I buy the jeans
    it can vary from 6 to 8.
    My dream size would be a 2, but will be more than happy to be size 4 :)
