I'm sure somebody is going to find posting sizes offending, but I thought it would be nice to know that there are other people out there like you. Thanks for posting.
I don't think it is bad at all... Why not ask if you are curious!0 -
I'm 5'2"
Smallest - 3 months (Hokay, a size 4)
Biggest: - size 14 Ouch (and yes the "ouch" was part of the size...because I would things on, they would be tight...I'd be like, OUCH!)
Currently - size 8 / 10 (squeezed into my high school cheer uniform the other day! Pleats look different than I remember though. LOL)
Goal - size whatever and feel fantabulous inside! (With my goal weight it should end up being a size 6.)

Oh, and women's sizes are complete crap. I once had a pair of 7/8's that I wore until the bottoms were shreaded (short...step on them a lot) and the knees were threadbare. I remember them - Levi, classic flare, 7/8. I found the exact same pair in the store new, I was wearing the old ones (they were maybe 2 years old). I pulled the old ones off without undoing them, and couldn't even get the new ones past my knees! :mad: You going to tell me I stretched them THAT MUCH? Nu uh. That was when I started noticing you pay more for smaller sizes. The more expensive the jeans, the smaller size I wore in that brand. Once had a 4 bigger than an 11. :huh:
It's nuts!!!
:ohwell:
I never wore larger than a size 12 or 14 at my heaviest, but I always joke that I could make a 12 look like a 16!!! :blushing: I still have clothes ranging from 10 to 4, and they all fit (I even have drawstring linen pants in a 12 that are soooo comfy that I'm not giving them up!).
If I read Victoria's Secret size chart (I'm shopping online for clothes right now!) my hips (39") make me a 10 and my waist makes me between a 6 and 8 (27") and my bust (39") makes me a 14 in tops??? I always thought of myself as pear shaped! NOT biggest on the top at all! I NEVER wear 14 in tops - my top is usually size small or an 8 at the largest!!! (My torso measurement is 31" and my bra band is 34) What the heck!?!?!?
:noway:
What kind of messed up size are you? Anyone worse than a 14/6/10?

apparently according to victoria secret im a 16 all the way down to my hips.... and thats when i become a size 20???? bahahahahah maybe thats why i buy jeans with stretch :laugh:0 -
Smallest - Size 8 (back in high school at 130lbs)
Largest - Size 20 (Last year at 203lbs)
Now - Size 12 comfortably ( I hate wearing anything even close to tight) (152 lbs)
Goal - Size 6-8 (135 lbs)
I am 5'6" with a medium frame. I have had 4 children, but I'm 7 years post baby so I don't really have an excuse. My under active thyroid was diagnosed about 3 years ago and we just got it under control this last year. That made a HUGE difference in my ability to lose weight and my emotional stability. I was definitely an emotional eater. I was amazed at how much influence it has on your body.
Regarding the women's sizing, it's ridiculous!! Back when I was 135lbs in high school, I wore a size 8 and they weren't really loose. A couple of friends I have are around that weight and are now in 4's & 6's. I wish they could standardize it a bit more. And as much as I like stretchy material for comfort, I find that the stretchy pants/jeans fit great at the store, but after you wear them for a couple of hours, I'm hiking them up all the time.0 -
these are pants sizes, b/c my top is still a L, I was an XL/XXL
smallest - size 10
biggest - size 18
right now - size 6/8
goal - 4/60 -
hahaha!
were the please flaring out? instead of laying flat?!
j.k. I'm sure you looked cutey patootey!
I would kill to fit into my cheerleading outfit again. And my coach told me that I needed to loose weight b/c it didn't fit me correctly! Damn woman!0 -
SM: 7/8 that was back 2001 way before I got pregnant and granted I was like 20 lol
BIG: biggest a size 20 when I was preggo with ri ri
NOW: anywhere from an 8-12 depending on brand
GOAL: pretty much at goal pant size but it would be nice to be in an 8 in every brand0 -
Okay here's a really sad story about a cheerleading uniform. My mom dug mine out a while back and it was very tiny. I put the waist around my thigh and it fit. What does that mean. it means in high school my waist was the same size as my thighs are now. For my waist to be that small again I would have to lose over 10 inches in my waist :noway: Princess, Congrates on getting into yours.0

Actually, I think I would even be happy with being in a sz. 8...heck maybe even a 10. I'll just have to wait and see how many cool clothes I will be able to fit into when I get down there. I'm all about the clothing! lol0 -
Monica, this may help. I'm 5'8, medium/large frame, and at 165 with 27% body fat... I wore a size 12. (Body fat % will make a difference in what size you wear, because fat takes up more space but weights less then muscle). I bet 155 would be a great weight for you.
Here are my numbers:
Smallest size: 10
Largest: 14
Current: 12's are big, 10's are small. I hate that!
Goal: 8
Thank you that does help but how do i know my body fat %? how do i find that out cause right now i know it is baaaaaaaaaadddddddddd:sad:0 -

Hahaha! Yeah - I don't want my bust to shrink too much!!! I wear small tops because I like them form fitting! I could never wear a button front top - never closes across the bust when it fits the waist!:flowerforyou:0 -

exactly if it fits up top it is too big on the waist but oh well i tried the babydoll tops but then I look preggy and that is not the case :laugh: If i wear them too tight on the waist they show the girls a little too much:blushing: :blushing:

Smallest - Size 8 (Highschool days ...)
Biggest - Size 16 (Pretty tight, muffin top pants, etc.)

THere's multiple ways of finding your % body fat - all with different variations of accuracy. I use the one the Navy uses. All you need is a tape measure to get your hip, waist and neck measurements. Then there is a grid you use based on your height to determine your % body fat.
If anyone is interested, message me with your regular email address so I can email you the pdf.

Ya...cheer leading skirt pleats!!! Each pleat was generously extended beyond the overall goal of the VARSITY company who designed the said skirt. LOL
That will be my MFP photo when I get down to that size. Hummm...LOL0
