Ladies: What's your size?

I'm 5'8"
SW (back in 2008): 307 lb, pants were 22 and just one or two 24 (non stretch jeans), 3X shirt. 42DD.
SW (for MFP): 262 lb, pants were 22 and shirts 2X and 3X. 40DD.
At 240 lb I was wearing 20-22 pants and 2X shirt, although some were honestly too baggy. 40DD.
CW: 213 lb, pants 16-18 and shirts 1X or XL (just starting to fit the XL), some 14 dresses and dress pants fit now too. 38DD bra.
My goal weight is fuzzy right now but I wanna say something like 180 and 12/14? XL top or maybe L? Dunno.
(also edited to add that I'm the type who wears stuff too baggy on the regular, I could probably wear a L shirt right now but I freak if it clings)
These were my answers in Oct. Now I'm 199 lb, pants 16, shirts XL but it's still a crazy deal with shirts. Most (not all) of my 1X are out now - way too big - and even some XL are big on me but some XL are way, way too small for me to wear still. So it looks like I'll have everything around for awhile....L, XL, XXL, 1X.
I wear 38DD bra and lots of M and L pajamas. Just varies by company. I was in Lane Bryant awhile ago and they had NO 14 or 16 item I tried on that wasn't falling off. As stated 14 pounds ago, I do have a couple 14 dresses and dress pants - a few more since that post - but still no 12s and fine with that :-)0 -
5'3"
SW 230's size 18/20 jeans XXL pants Shirts XXL and XL
CW 192.6 size 14/16 Shirts XL
GW 120-135 whatever size is most comfy at this point. Will prob still be XL because I've always been top heavy.0 -
I'm 5'3". I wear size XS or XXS shirts depending on the brand, same as either 0 or 00 bottoms depending on the brand. Brands size things ridiculously these days. I remember five years ago (I was relatively the same size, maybe even smaller because I was younger) I bought a pair of shorts, size 2, fit fine. The nest year I went into the same store for a new pair of size 2 shorts, and they were enormous. The 00 fit perfectly. I had not gained a pound, stores just size things down. I've noticed it more and more.0

Stores are definitely not sizing down as you describe. As someone who has managed a mass retailer, the general sizes are getter smaller, not bigger.0 -
My body type is apple, meaning I gain all my weight in my midsection. Such a bummer because 5 lbs. looks like 10 lbs. on my body. Nonstop stomach! Arg.
Starting weight: 158 lbs., dress size L, pants size 12, shirt size L
Current weight: 150 lbs. still the same size but pants are fitting looser!
Goal weight: 135 lbs., dress size M, shirt size M and pants size 10.0 -

Is that not what I said? The number on the tag is going down while the fit stays exactly the same. Whatever the word for it is, that has been my experience, and I know it's happened to others.0 -

This is so interesting! Proves that all of these are really just numbers that don't define us.

CW: 175 lbs pants 12, shirt M
GW: 140 lbs pants 4-6, shirt S

Wear size 8 jeans; would like to wear size 6. I am trying to get weight down just to see if I can get my waist and stomach and butt to fit into smaller jeans.0 -
My sizes are all over the place.
I'm 5'5" and 140 lbs.
Right now I'm wearing size 9 black slacks and a size small button-up shirt. Tomorrow I'll be wearing a size 4 dress. The next day I might wear my size 5 pants with a size medium top. And all of these things fit me - none are too tight or too loose. See what I mean about all over the place? So, I'm anywhere from a size 4 to a size 9!
I buy all of my jeans and most of my shorts/skirts from American Eagle, where I'm a size 4 in some and size 6 in others. I got a new job in January and was surprised to find that I fit into size 4 dresses from TJ Maxx (hey, I'm not made of money) and size 4 and 5 in pants from JC Penney.
I've never gone into double digits in clothes. The largest size I've ever worn is a 9, and that was back in high school (except these work pants - I swear, they're made small!). That was at my highest weight, 165. When I started losing this time around I'd gotten up to 155 and was wearing size 6 or 7.0 -
Right now I am 5'1.5" and 141 lbs.
My measurents are 34D -28-39
I average a size 7 in jeans and a Small in shirts.
But for dresses, omg, I have to go large same with yoga pants/shorts.0 -

Hey,
I have been on MFP since 6th January 2014 - I had been on MFP previously using it as a diet tool where the weight came off but came back on with a vengeance, however now I am using it as a lifestyle change.
I'm from the UK so my measurements are in UK sizes with what I think is the equivalent US dress size next to it.
Starting weight : 174lbs, dress size 12 (8 US) on top, 14 (10 US) on bottom
Current weight : 145lbs, dress size 8 (4 US) on top, 10 (6 US) on bottom [the lightest I have been since I was 16]
Goal weight : 126lbs, I would love to be a size 6-8 (2-4 US)
Keep up the hard work and weight loss everyone!0
