Women over 200 lbs

LaurenRitter205 · July 2016

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.

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 brand

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 quicker

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.

TwistedSin · July 2016

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

hmurdough1 · July 2016

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 lol

redhairedgoddess1 · July 2016

I'm allllll butt and BOOBS

Moxie42 · July 2016

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.

azwyatt · July 2016

I'm 229 5'8 and a size 18-20 depending on the brand.

Cyndiaquino · July 2016

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

jmbrown090 · July 2016

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.

ericaconti · July 2016

When I started, I was 275-ish and wore a 24w. I'm 5'7.

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.

Hispanicprincess · July 2016

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.

KittyKatCA · July 2016

Hi I'm 257, 5'9 and Wear a size 18. I just had a 2nd baby so most of my weight is in my legs and stomach.

GroovyVicks · July 2016

HI there, I'm 5"4 and 243 (17st3). Depending on the shop, I'm between an 18 and a 22. All seems to be belly and boobs for me!

alexialmann · July 2016

I'm 232 and in a size 16, but I am pretty tall.

Gerbsxyng412 · July 2016

RAREBIRDART · July 2016

I am 5'4", 355 lbs, and I am a size 24.

rachelr1116 · July 2016

I'm 5'11", 210 lbs and I wear a size 14 or 16 depending on brand.

savithny · July 2016

Size depends so much on bone structure and build.
I'm 5'10", currently 225, size 18 jeans (at least, in my favorite brand).
Even that varies, because my waist/hip ratio is such that lots of jeans gap widely at the waist while they fit my hips, and when I buy "curvy" jeans, different brands scale them differently - some of them take a size 16 waist and make the butt bigger and call it a "16curvy," while others take an size 18 hip and make the waist smaller and call it a "18 curvy."

Linda_10 · July 2016

Hello I just found the group.and I hope you don't mind me joining in. I'm 234 lbs. this is the most I've weighed in my life! I don't wear Jeans,my Dresses and skirts are around 16-18 in size. I'm just round all over!

cariduttry · July 2016

i'm 5'8" 229# and my 18's are beginning to become too baggy on me. when i was 260/265#, i wore a size 20 and that was tight.

LoFoSho100 · July 2016

This is a super interesting thread! I've never really thought about this before... At 274, I am in some snug 18s... I should probably have bumped myself up to a 20, but have refused to buy another size up and instead have decided to lose the weight instead of losing my current pants for bigger ones. At what I would say has been my normal weight, 190ish, I was a comfortable 12 or 14, depending on the brand. Now that I'm considering it though, that is a significant weight difference and not much of a size difference. HOWEVER, as an 18, I shop in different stores. I wonder if I shopped at Maurices now instead of Torrid (or whatever plus size specific store) if I would actually be wearing a 22(ish)...

dearcassandrab · July 2016

I'm 239 and a size 16-18 depending on brand. Just got into 16's like a week or two ago. I carry the weight pretty evenly, but my thighs have always been thunderous. Lol

km8907 · July 2016

5'4", 269 and in between a 24-26. I've got big hips.

smcrimmon84 · July 2016
