    5'2" (A little shorter than the intended posting)
    SW:223.8 (US size 16)
    CW: 175.2 (US size 14, they are a bit baggy)

    I'm pear shaped though, so probably not comparable to most. It was interesting to see the sizings though.

    Just under 5'4". My pants are primarily from NY&Co. and I have comparatively small hips for my shape. Even at a size 0 in jeans, I am snug in a small top and usually wear a medium and sometimes a large.

    At 220lbs - Size 18

    At 142lbs- Size 2 (Current)

    At smallest - 132lbs - Size 0

    This is really cool to see. We are all shaped so differently.

    5'3" here.

    Started last month at 158 lbs in very snug size 6 (us)
    Lost 7 lbs and now comfortably in a size 6.

    I got down to 120 lbs in 2014 and was in a size 2. I want to wear them again.

    Height 5 ft 5 in.
    I carry all of my weight in my belly.
    Heaviest weight was 245lbs, and I was barely fitting into 22W pants and 2X tops.
    Starting weight on MFP 222 lbs, still in 22W pants and 2X tops.
    Current weight 178 lbs, loose size 14 pants and wearing XL tops.

    Goal weight is around 140. I have no idea what size that will be. In high school (1986 to 1990) only the tiniest girls who were literally skin and bones wore size 4. I was around 125 and wore size 10 or 12 pants. If I get to 135 I am guessing I might be a size 6 pants?

    This is interesting but I think it has more to do with waist size than how tall you are. :)

    I'm 5'3.5"
    At 167lbs (my lowest adult weight), I was in roomy size 14. Probably could have managed a 12 comfortably but never bought anything in that size.
    At 178lbs, I wear either a 14 or 16 (16s are too big, 14s are a bit too tight)
    At 195lbs I was in 16-18.
    At 212lbs I was in 18-20 or so.

    5'3" and currently 131 lbs. The majority of my pants are size 8, but most are on the big side. I would say most brands I probably wear a size 6. I am hoping to be closer to a 4 when I hit my goal (125ish). Unfortunately I am built like a ruler when I am lean (my hips and chest size are nearly identical), so I usually wear a bigger size than most.

    GW 139 just to be out of the 140's; who know what size

    When I began, my goal was size 10 which is what I was in my 30's at about 135 lbs. (I'm 60 now). When I hit size 8 I realized how much more generous today's sizes are. I have never worn an 8 in my life, never mind a 4.

    What I find really sad is that I thought I was overweight at 135 because that is what the weight/height charts said. I couldn't lose more weight, so I just resigned myself to being "fat", gave up and the pounds piled up along with the decades. I came to my senses 2 years ago and have been consistently losing since.
