I am just curious what type of different body types everyone has... I was a size 16, now I am a size 10... 5'5 155lbs... I look at some of these celebrities and they are saying so and so wears a size 6 or 8 (Beyonce for example) I highly doubt that women wears a size 6.... So I was just wondering everyone height, weight, pants size... probably shouldnt compare...especially to celebs lol

UK 18 on the bottom half, still a uk 20-22 top half0 -
I am amazed by the answers to your question. I guess it depends on body shape and how tight or loose you like your clothing. I weighed 178 and wore a size 16 ( wore an 18 before that at 185 or so). Now I am at 157 or so and wear a size 12. I am 5'4 in height. Most of my weight is in my chest and tummy. I hope to be 145 or lower-don't know what size that will mean.0

Women's clothing sizes are all screwed up.
I'm 5'8", weigh 155 lbs, and am roughly a size 10. However, I went and bought some new jeans on the weekend (yay!). I haven't bought jeans in a loooong time, and was down to just one pair that looked somewhat presentable.
Anyway, I went into a store ( Lucky jeans) that appeared to have waist measurements on their jeans. Awesome, I thought, as I started gathering some 29s and 30s to try on. The saleslady came over, and after asking my waist size (29 or 30, duh), said, "Oh, well you'll wear a 27 then".
Whaaa? Why even put a waist measurement on the jeans if it's not right? Vanity sizing at its worst?
Anyway, rant over. I was just happy to find some nice-looking jeans that fit me.0 -
5'6
210 lbs
size 12 pants (can differ a little depending on style/store)
XL shirts usually (also differs like pants)0 -
5'11"+, 188lbs and a size 16. I was also a size 16 at 220lbs. Some 16s are too large now, but some are still too small. Cant win for losing.0

5'5 and about 147. I haven't tried on new pants recently, but my size 10s are getting pretty roomy. I'm either a small or medium in most misses' tops, depending on the cut of the sleeves. In juniors', either a L or XL top, and 9 or 11 in jeans.
I don't think you can go by what celebrities wear (or what size they say they are), since it seems the more expensive the clothes, the smaller size you get to wear.0 -
lucky jeans are awesome however the sizing is all screwed up!!! I can get a 12 thats too tight and then pick up a 10 and they will be falling off!!!Women's clothing sizes are all screwed up.

I just want to clarify I never actually put myself in a 16... but my 14 were really tight...so... at one point in my life I was a 20 and I am never going back there!!! and pants size does vary on the brand... I am surprised at how different we all are!!!I am just curious what type of different body types everyone has... I was a size 16, now I am a size 10... 5'5 155lbs...

5'11"
250 lbs
Size 24 pants
I carry most of my weight in my belly, my waist measurements are almost the same as my hips. Comparing my stats to some of the other it seems like I'm wearing pants that are too big. Just makes me excited to see what I'll be wearing when I have more weight loss (30 to 40 pounds). I can't wait until I get to size 16, which is not my goal size, but at least I'll be able to buy pants without having to shop in the plus size section.0 -
I'm 5'5"
When I started MFP I weighed 185 and wore a 16-18, depending on the pants.
Now I'm 135 and am a size 8 pant and a size small or XS sweater/soft tee. If it's a "t-shirt" shirt (not soft and stretchy) I'm a medium or large.
I dunno what size top I was when I started cuz I always wore unisex tees and sweatshirts. And typically bought those in a large. I know I had some large and XL womens tops that I got rid of when I cleaned my closet though.0
