    I'm a size UK 14-16, when I reach my target I will be size 8 for tops and size 12 for bottoms, but I think this time round I might be able to get down to size 10 for bottoms coz of excersise. When I lost weight before I did no excersise and lost muscle so I was all flabby to fit into size 10 LOL

    I'll be honest and mostly it's for the looks, as fit wise I am pretty alright. I'd like to get back to my size 2US. I'm only 5'2" though.
  • I am size 34 and would like to go to size30. Want the ripped abs.

    I would like to lose weight to be healthier for one, the other reasons are all size 4US and taking up all most all the space in my closet and dressers and I miss them all!!! Don't like being on the verge of a size 16....

  • I will say that yes I want to lose weight for my health, family :heart: and all that stuff but, I really want to lose weight so I can have a rockin body and look hot! :tongue: I want to be that woman on the street that makes the heads turn because she has legs of steel, buns of steel and abs you could wash your clothes on. :bigsmile:

    I am currently a US size 12-14 and would like to be a size 8

    To convert US sizes to UK/IRE sizes add 4 :wink:

    ie US 12 = UK 16

    At the moment I am an UK/IRE size 12 I started off at UK/IRE size 16 :blushing: ... While a UK/IRE12 is nice and comfy I would love to be a size UK/IRE size10 again :heart: ... but I also want to tone up the mid section I think you guys call it the muffin top lol :wink:

    I'd love to be a UK8. Some of my newer clothes have been an 8 which is SO exciting. But it's stretchy stuff. Want to be a proper 8
  • I want that rockin bod next summer and for all the guys to be jealous of my hubby. I started out a year ago at a size US 16, and am now a 9-10. I would like to get down to a 6, but will settle for an 8 with tight abs and lifted butt.

    I would like all the jiggly fat gone, to be heathier and to look good...

    I am currently a size 16 and I would be happy to go down to a size 10...the size I was right after I had my first son...
    My pre-baby size was a 6 - 8 but I'm not too sure if I want to be that small again...we'll see

    The real reason I started to want to lose weight is because I realized I was bigger then my mother and she was becoming more active then I was. What she was in her 60s and I was in my 30s that wasn't supposed to be! I started out at a 18/20US 242 lbs and I thought when I reached my goal weight of 140 I would be a 8 us but I am finding that at 170 my 10s are getting baggy so I am thinking when I reach my goal weight I will be in a 4/6 US.
