    My perfect size would be an 8 to 10 .... size 14 at the moment!! Still a way to go!
    I can't wait to start looking forward to going clothes shopping rather then dreading it! :)

    I really want to be a size 1 or 2 because I am only 5'1. I used to be an 18/20, now I am an 11/12. I still have a LONG long long way to go. sigh...

    I'd be happy with an 8 but my ideal jean size is 6 - I had been a 4 for awhile when I was in college but that just seemed too small for me.

    My favorite clothing brands only go up to a size 12 or 14...so as long as I can fit into those, I'm happy. I started at a very tight 20 (probably should have been wearing 22). The last pair of jeans I bought were 13/14. They fit well initially but end up nearly falling off by the end of the day.

    I would like to be back into a size 5-6. I think I could get down to size 3-4 though. But that isn`t going to be my goal. I am just gonna aim to be where I was.

    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 :)

    At my heighest weight I was a 10, my lowest was a 2, after looking through pictures, my goal is a 4...I am currently a 6. I love my legs at a 2, but..thats about it....everything else looks better suited to a 13 year old girl than a woman..but that is just me

    I am 5'1 and I think the ideal size is 4 for our height anyway...
    ---also make sure you are in womens not junior sizes..the way the cloths are shaped makes a huge difference when you are talking petite women cloths..( atleast they do for me) currently 6 would love to be in the 120lb and size 4 range

    I'm wearing 36-waist jeans right now; I'd like to be able to comfortably wear 32 or 34 (which pretty much translates to 34-36" actual waist size).

    Of course, ideally, I'd be 100' tall and covered with lasers.

    I think I would like to be at a size 4 again, couldn't imagine being smaller then that.

    Just want to fit what I have (size 8) without feeling like they're cutting into me or having my ankles swell from the circulation being cut off. I was in a size 4 years ago and was told that I looked like I was sick so I wouldn't try to be much smaller than a size 6-8 for my frame.

    I wouldn't mind being a US size 8, wearing a large or medium ladies' shirt. Would love to be down to a 36 or 34 in bras too.

    Right now I'm wearing 14's, my goal is to get back into 11/12's. I'm 5'10 at 208lbs, a year ago I was pregnant and at 275lbs.

    I'm closing in on size 12 jeans (American Eagle)! But I would like to be a 10. I think that is definitely reasonable; I remember being a 6/8 in high school for a hot second.

    Currently UK size 8 (US 4?) in tops and dresses, an inbetween 8/10 (US 4/6?) in jeans. I'm happy enough there as I don't think I'd be able to go/maintain any smaller and at 5'11 I think I'd probably be too thin for my shape.

    I'm currently in a 36 slim...down from a 40. I still got a few lbs to go so i think my ideal size is a 34 which I haven't been in since HS.

    I don't have a size goal, but I do want to be in the middle of my target weight and healthy which I am working on. That said, from the past, I think I looked my best when I was a size 8 US. I don't know what size I am right now, but the last pants I wore were size 10 or 12. So, I have a little bit of adjusting to go, but after having two babies, if my hips are a bit wider, as long as I have a healthy tummy and healthy weight, I don't care what size I end up settling into.

    I would love to be back in my size 6 clothes, with the potential to fit in some 4's, I've always been small and petite, so that is the ideal size for me.

    Thought it would be a 10, but then I decided that 5 is great after I got there.

    I'm 5'8 and I started out as a size 16 (probably an 18, really, but I refused to buy the size). I always thought that a size 8 pants was my ideal jeans size. Well, now I'm there and I'm dang happy, but I think I might could get into a 6. :)

    With shirts, its another story, completely, because my body type is an inverted triangle, so I have super broad shoulders (also long monkey arms), so any long-sleeved shirt will only be long enough in the sleeves if it is a large. However, most short-sleeved shirts I can pick up a medium in.

    Long story short: I guess my ideal size is whatever one I end up in when everything is all said and done.

    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!!!! It's taken me a long time to stop obsessing about sizes. I've finally learned that if it looks good on me, then that's what I'll buy, no matter if its a size 12 or a size 10. I would rather it fit nicely and not have my fat squirting out of the top of it then look horrible but be able to say I'm wearing a smaller size.

    I'd like to be 4s in pants. I'm mostly 6s now, depending on brand. Small top will be impossible, but mediums are fine.

    I don't ever remember being below a size 13/14 in my adult life. My biggest size was 24, my Current size is 18 (some 20s) & would love to be a 12 or 10 maybe.
