in Health and Weight Loss
Hello! I'm 5'2" and I've lost 13 pounds so far. I'm at 199 lbs now. I was just wondering everyone's weights & sizes. I'm down to a size 12 now. I was wondering when I can expect my next size drop. Thank you!

    5'3" and 27.
    Started at 191 in October. Now 178.
    Size 12/14, but my 14s are starting to feel loose.

    I read once that for every 7 pounds gained/loss you generally go up/down a dress size. Then again, muscle is more dense than fat so....

    I'm 5'2'' and 22.
    I started at 190 and a tight size in 10 women's/juniors 11 or 13.
    I'm now fluctuating between 119-122 and I'm a size 00-2 in women's. I buy a lot of clothes in the little boy's section (because it is cheaper) and I'm a 10/12 in tops and a 11/12 in bottoms.

    In regards to when you can expect your next drop, that is up to your body. I didn't shop that frequently when I was actively losing, so I skipped straight from an 8 to a 4.

    I'm a little over 5'2" and I'm 29. My heaviest was pushing around 180lbs and a size 12 (12 was getting too tight). I'm down to 142lbs, size 7/8. I don't plan to drop my weight anymore, but my focus hasn't been on the scale in a while.
    Doing a slow body recomp I expect my clothing size will continue to drop. Currently, the numbers on the scale are still around 142lbs but my clothes are getting loose.

    I'm 5'2" and 52. I'm just starting at about 130. I want to drop a little weight, but my main focus is health and reshaping my body.

    I am 5'1 and three quarters in the morning. Does that count? I'm 27. I am about 145 now, and a size 6-8, but quite muscular. I find "sizes" are hard to measure - I can be three different sizes in the same store depending on where the waist hits and, critically, whether the thighs have stretch. I'd worry more about measurements and weight, rather than sizes. Keep up the good work!

    I'll tell you mine to illustrate that everyone is different. At 5'2", 145lbs, I wear a women's size 12 pant. At 125lbs, I go all the way down to a size 10. I have massive hips so my pants size is generally a lot higher than everyone else at my weight/height. Asking others their sizes is interesting, but PLEASE don't use it to compare to yourself. Everyone is different!

    I'm 5'1" and currently 126 lbs and generally a size 4. Fat distributes pretty uniformly over my body and I'm naturally muscular. My sizes went something like this:

    Size 12 at 170-188 lbs (188 was my max)
    Size 10 at 150-170 lbs
    Size 8 at 140-155 lbs
    Size 6 at 130-140 lbs

    I found that the smaller you get, the fewer pounds you need to lose between sizes.

    I'm 5'2", 206 lbs, 25 years old. Just started my fitness journey 2 weeks ago. Already down almost 10 lbs, but not sure if I've lost any sizes yet. I'm currently a size 16.

    Feel free to add me, anyone, I don't have any friends on MFP yet and some motivation would be awesome, as well as being able to give motivation to others!

    I'm 26 years old, 5'3", currently 165 pounds and wear size 12. I'm fairly new on this weightless journey and have lost about 10 pounds. I still wear the same pants but my belt has been able to go 2 notches tighter. :smile:

    I'm 5'2" and weight 172#. I'm a loose size 14. Hopefully a 12 next week.

    I tend to be muscular and even when I was really fit, my low weight was 125. I played soccer and ran during that time.

    My first goal is 138, which is on the high end, but tolerable. 130 looks good on me.

    5'2", 148.4 lbs, I wear a size 8 jean if it's been repeatedly shrunk in the wash (my second-hand ones fit, my new ones are too big in the same brand and size), and I'm a hair's breadth away from a size 6. Shirts are a toss up. I now fit a Juniors medium or a women's small.

    Like others have said, I have always been rather muscular, and objective observation would say I look smaller than a buck fifty visually. So it's really only partly up to weight. Body composition matters too, sometimes, and this is especially true as you approach goal weight, where it actually matters more. (with respect to clothing sizes and health)

    ETA: I'm a solid 100% hourglass. So pear shaped people are gonna differ as well (shout out to my pear girls). Measurements last week (before aunt flo showed up and made me floppy) were 38/31/38. At my thinnest I was 36/27/36. And at my largest I was 41/36/41. So I guess I mean to say it's all over the board. Shape, body comp, and weight all play a role.

    I'd suggest you track your bust, waist, and hips measurements instead. Why? Because different stores and clothing manufacturers use different sizing. You may be a size 10 or a size 12 depending on the brand.

    This too. Clothing brands are not at all required to have any rhyme or reason behind how they label their clothing items size-wise. In some brands you may be a 6. I have a pair of size 4 jeans that fit, but I've never fit in a four in my life, so I feel pretty safe assuming the manufacturer is playing a heavy vanity-sizing game.

    Thread is meaningless without the poster stating what country's sizing they're using!

    I'm 5'2, 28 years old. I'm in the UK so not sure how the sizes differ. I'm a UK size 12 and currently 141lbs.

    I have a pair of jeans that are UK size 10 that I could fit into easily last year that won't go over my thighs right now! So they are the motivation.

    I'm aiming to get to 126lbs. First goal is 133lbs for me.

    I'm 5'2, 29 years old, 139 and a size 6/8. Goal is to be 115-120 and I'm typically a size 2/4 at that weight.

    5'3"/110.7 pounds; ~160cm/50kg. Measurements determine everything. I'd guess I'm a size 2 all around, but in US stores that vanity size like Target, their size 0 jeans are loose on me and I fit comfortably into their size 00. I would guess I'm a UK 4 to 6 since I believe the US vanity sizes all the time, just some places far more than others.

    That's what I was going to say! There's a big difference in sizing from country to country and even from store to store!

    I'm 5'2, maintaining around 123 lbs, and I wear a US size 4 at most stores.
