Women over 200 lbs

Just wondering what your jean size is. I'm currently at 229 and a size 24. I feel like a lot of women around the same weight use jeans that are way smaller so it's mostly out of curiosity.

I'm 227 and just moved to a size 16. But I'm 5'5 and carry my weight in my top half.1

Height and how your weight is distributed over your body is going to be a big factor for clothing size
I'm 5'9" , 255 size 16 right now. Sometimes 14 or 18 depending on the brand3 -
I'm 5'5, 215 and in size 18 right now. Last time I was this weight I was easily a 16 but I had one other kid since and pants don't fit the same since. Doing strength and cardio in hopes of getting pants down a bit quicker1

First off, I have no idea what I'm doing.. First time on here... I'm 5'1 and 228, size 16-18... Started at 243... That was 45 days ago I think ... I'm stuck and can't seem to shake anymore weight...

I'm 5'4", ~224 lbs and just starting to squeeze into size 16. I'm all stomach so I tend to suddenly drop sizes once my waist hits a tipping point. But way before that my clothes get way too loose everywhere else.3

I'm 201 and 18/20. I'm all thighs, belly and butt.5

My body is weird. I'm @256lbs and 5'4 but I'm in size 12-14 I don't have a large stomach it's actually quite flat. but the rear end is... Huge... Ha, I have a hard time finding jeans that will go over my butt. And when I do they're way to big for my stomach so I usually just wear yoga pants lol2

I'm allllll butt and BOOBS2

I'm 5'4". I started my weight loss journey at 211 wearing a tight size 16. Now I'm 195 and still wearing a size 16 but much more comfortably. I tend to stay relatively proportional when I gain/lose weight though, which is mostly a good thing, but I do feel like it takes longer for changes to be visible and for sizes to go down.3

I'm 5'6. Before I lost weight, I was at 215 lb. I was in a 14/16 US jean size.0

When I started I was 241 (5'6") and was an 18 although the those were all incredibly tight on me and I refused to go into the 20s..... They got so tight that I knew it was either lose weight or go up a couple sizes... Now I'm 157
) best decision I ever made.

Girl if you are interested in comparing check out this website: http://www.mybodygallery.com/
It's just random people who put up pictures of themselves. You can enter your height, weight, etc, and then see what other people with your stats look like. It's eye-opening and awesome. It also goes to show that the scale isn't everything!
Also, if you're not accounting for height than you can't make a comparison. When I was 290 I was a size 26-28, but I'm 5'10". Now I'm 170 (upper healthy BMI range) and I'm a size 8/10. Other women with my same BMI are 4s and 6s, but they're shorter.5 -
I am 285lbs and 5'8 and wear a size 20 sometimes 18 depending on the brand. When I lost 50lbs 7 years ago I was 230 and wore a size 14/15. Wish I could go back to that. I am very top heavy large stomach and boobs, but very slim legs and thighs.0
