    Here's what is current:

    Height: 5'10"
    Weight: 208
    Pant Size: 14
    Shirt Size: X Large
    Frame: Large

    I don't have my measurements from before I started since I didn't measure then, and just squeezed into my old clothes. And I've only lost about 6 or 7 lbs.

    I just started losing weight, so here are my current stats:

    Height: 5'11"
    Weight: 196
    Pant Size: Between a 12 and 14
    Shirt Size: Large
    Frame: small according to the wrist test. I think I would have to agree with that.

    I am 5'7" and according to this test I have small frame, other tests said the same too. I usually were size 2 or 4 US, but some brands zero! With shirts I have xxs, sx, s and plenty of mediums in my clothes. My twin sis has medium frame according to one test, and she always at least 5-7 lb more then I am but without looking any heavier then me. Btw our mom is large frame...

    According to the wrist, I'm small framed. There is NO way I am small framed. I have never been small even at my smallest when I was fit nor do I think I ever will be.



    Height: 5'9
    Weight: 224
    Pant Size: 14-16
    Shirt Size: L-XL



    WOOT WOOT! This just popped up in my topics. It's OLD. I am now:

    5'9
    205
    14 (but they're getting too big and am fitting into freaking 12s!!!)
    L

    How to measure your frame: Wrap your middle finger and your thumb around your opposite wrist. If your fingers overlap you are a small frame. If they touch you are medium. If they do not touch, you are a large frame.


    The problem with that is that some of us large-medium framed people also have long fingers.... I know I'm not "small framed" and my fingers overlap.

    I just started this awesome journey, but here are my current stats.

    Height : 6'
    Weight: 221 (started at 230)
    Pants: 16 or 18, depends on the cut
    Top: L or XL (36D)
    Small frame according to the test, but I'm pretty sure I have a larger frame since my hips are like BAM!

    Always looking for other tall girls to compare things with, so feel free to add me! :)

    Height: 5'10"
    Weight: 123
    Pants: US 6
    Top: S or M

    These stats might seem small, but I have an extremely tiny frame (my thumb overlaps about an inch of my *pinky* when I wrap around my wrist) and I carry all of my fat in my belly and hips, so I look very disproportionate at any weight over about 115 lbs.

    Mmm not so sure about the wrist vs size thing. My finger and thumb overlap but I have big hands, long fingers and big feet (Size 10-11 US). I'd have said I was a medium to large frame. As for the rest:

    Height: 5'9" (175cm)
    Weight: SW 182lB (82.6kg) CW 161lB (73.2kg) GW 154 pounds (70kg)
    Pant Size - AUS 12 (US/Canada 8)
    Shirt Size - AUS 12 (US/Canada 8)

    height: 5'9"+

    weight: 152

    shirt size: medium

    Pants: 6

    The wrist thing is bogus. Before I lost my weight I could just barely touch fingers. Now that I've lost a ton of weight, they overlap by a lot. Did my frame get smaller with weight loss? No, I was just fat.
