I'm 5'9", CW 181 lbs and pant/dress size 14. My GW is 145 lbs. I was wondering what kind of pant/dress sizes I have to look forward to???

    It depends on your body type and muscle. My mom is tall and built straight and at that weight she is a 4/6. I am 5ft6 and at 154 I am a 8 sometimes 6, but I have 19% body fat. So if your goal is to get to 145 really focus on strength training because in only losing 7lbs I have lost almost two sizes because muscle weights more than fat. So cliche, but true. Good luck on your journey!!

    I am not sure how much this will help you, seeing as I'm a little shorter than you, but I'm 5'8 and I weigh ~ 140 (I have been avoiding the scale)

    I am a dress size 4 (in those types of dresses that hug your top and poof out at the bottom)

    I am a pants size 12/13 (I have a very large bottom end, which I am not trying to lose)

    It really depends on your body shape/type

    My profile picture is current, as of a week ago

    I am 5'10" and 168lbs with a goal of 150lbs. I have dress pants that are a size 6L and I wear 8L in jeans. I dont expect to get smaller than a comfortable size 6.
