    I am just under 5'4, when I was a 140 I wore a size 8 or a size 10. Dresses I was a 6 or an 8.

    I'm about 20 pounds less now but my size has dropped pretty significantly I am now a 0 or a 2 in pants/shorts and a 00 or XS in dresses because so much of my weight came off my top half. But I find sizes can vary quite a bit from brand to brand and store to store. Also "Junior's" sizes are generally made for girls that don't quite have curves yet, at least in the smaller sizes so I find I fit much easier into misses or women's sizes which do account for hips/butt.

    I still love when places go my waist size since that is a more standard number, I also prefer to measure my progress that way. I went from a 32 inch waist at 140 to a 24.5 inch waist at 120ish.

    Thighs went from like 23.5 to 19.5 within the last 6 months with my weight changing much. My initial weight loss wasn't done on MFP

    I'm 5'3" and wore around a size 5-7 (depending on the jeans) at that weight. As far as shirts, I could wear a medium,as long as it wasn't a button down. That may seem odd at my height,but I was in really great shape. haha

    I'm 5'5, currently a hair above 140, and anywhere from a tight size 2 to a baggy 10, depending on the clothes. Mostly 4 or 6.

    However, when I didn't lift weights and had less muscle mass, I was 8-10-12 at 140-ish. Yay for lifting!

    I have no idea, but I'm pretty sure I was 12 years old.

    I was 140-145 lbs in high school and I was a 13/14 in pants and a medium/large top.

    I now weigh 156 lbs and I am a 10/12 pant and a medium top. Go figure.
