I would love to be a us size 9/10. I like being curvy so I cannot see myself wanting to be smaller than that. I'm 5'6".:happy:0

I really don't know because I've never been any smaller than I am now I'm currently 5'3 with a medium frame and size 7/8 (US sizes) but I still feel like I look huge in the mirror... So maybe a 6 or a 4 would suit me better.0

im 6ft and right now I am in a US 10/11. I would love to get back to an 8!! I am very small framed and boned lol I have an athletic build. Once upon a time I modeled and I was down to a 6. It was really small and I didnt have much muscle so I hope to keep my muscle this time and go for an 80

US 6/80

I'm 5'6 or 5'7 and I've gotten down to a 10 US size before (in skirts, never pants!). I'm hoping I can get to a size 6, but I don't know if that would be unhealthy for me, cause I'm verrrrrrrry very very very curvy (it's ridiculous sometimes...my stupid hips!!!). Even if I reached a 6, I don't know if I would be able to wear the jeans because of my hips/thighs being naturally...big. :P But then again, you can buy curvy style jeans, so we'll see about that!
I want to be a size 6 or 8 (US)!!0 -
I have been a 20 - 22 for so many years and now I am down to a 14 or large. If I lose another 30 lbs I can't imagine what size that will be. When I was a slim young woman I wore a 8 or a 10. I am 5' 1". It really is interesting seeing everyone's replies and how sizes vary.0

It's interesting: The average height of USA women are about 5'4"-5'5" and the average size is 14. It is kinda amusing to Me that MANY women have such Unrealistic weight and size goals that Many will surely not achieve, or if they achieve - will not maintain. Those goals are a set up to be unhappy, and there goes the vicious cycle>>>Running after that Airbrushed, hyper made-up, surgically altered, half starved actress/model/celebrity OR someone you were 10/15/20/25 years ago. Just saying...0

I dont know ??? lol ,maybe a size 4 cause i have never been that
before!0 -
I'm 5'10 with a large frame... a US size 12 has always been my perfect size because I love having my curves... but I think I look my fittest as a size 10. I'm wearing some 14's right now but depending on the brand and cut I still wear some regular 16's .... I'm just really glad I don't wear 18W-14W anymore which is a great NSV for me.0

But remember over 60% of the US population is overweight. So the average size 14 at 5'4 woman would reflect an overweight population, this size would not be the "ideal" or even healthy size.0 -

I think anything can be achieved if you put your mind to it. All the posts I have read so far have been achievable weights I think. I haven't seen anyone saying they want to be a size 0 or anything.
A US size 14 is a UK size 18. Which is quite overweight, just because it's the average doesn't mean that it's healthy.0 -
I really do not know what my perfect has been, I've a US 14 and XL/L since at least high school (I'm 22 now). I've never seen what I look like at a smaller size. I'm wearing 12 and L/M sizes now, so I'm looking forward to getting down into the single digits.0

I'm 5'9 with a fairly large build so about a size 12 US.0

I'm 5'4" and would like to be a size 10. I'm teetering on the edge of that atm, so don't think it's an unrealistic or unattainable goal.
Average sizes for a UK woman are about a size 16 I think. Obviously height isn't effected by eating habits (I hope!), but a country's average weight is affected by many people being overweight and pushing the overall average size up. Just sayin'.0 -
I am 5'5" and look best as a size 8, but am healthiest as a 10 UK. I am a 10 at the moment and not thin by anyone's standards.0
