    My ideal weight is when I look even better than I do now. I have pretty consistenly wore a size 14 but now I am ready to venture into something new. I don't have a specific number in mind but I would like to weigh less. According to my height I should weigh 130 pounds not sure if I want to get that small but I am shooting to be a lighter weight

    Be realistic... I always thought that I was "small boned" and was always trying to get into a 7... When I was a young person - in my 20's I actually got my weight down there and tried on 7's and they looked terrible on me! too short-wasted, all wrong! If I were younger, I'd go for a 9-10, but now, knowing I'm actually "medium" and over 60, I'm working on 11-12. Once I'm down to my right weight, they should fit me perfectly-in all directions! I've already bought a pretty dress to wear next spring to a wedding.
    Be realistic. ☺

    6-8 for me, but I'm not as tall as the model so won't look as thin.

    8-10 sounds good to me- I've never been under an 8 (unless you count middle school)

    i don't have an ideal dress size in mind, just a healthy weight.

    also, just because the national average is 14 doesn't mean it's acceptable and/or should be commended. this is a little off-topic but that image just got me thinking is all. "average" is just that...average of everyone's size in America. it doesn't imply that it's right, healthy, normal, or ideal.

    The middle one, but for me to look like that I would have to be less than a size 12 as I am only 5' 2.

    That photos is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY WRONG! That "size 16" girl is more of a size 8 and the size 4-8 girl is a size 2.

    That being said, I'd like to be a size 4. I currently wear a size 6-8, my size 5 suits are snug, I'm 5'8 138 lbs.

    I'm 5'5" and would have to say that my ideal is somewhere in the 10 to 12 range. I have a rather sturdy build with broad shoulders and will only look gaunt if I get too slim.

    It mostly depends on the Manufacturer and how tight you like your clothes to fit. I wear a size 6 in jeans and jeggings. I wear them tight and they feel and look great. But in regular pants and shorts -- I still wear a 8 or sometimes even a 10.

    I am at the low end of my healthy maintenance range now and am trying to gain back a few pounds. In tops (from the Gap and other moderately priced manufacturers), I still wear a Medium or sometimes a large. I don't care for them "bulging" around the bust. Just the way I like to wear them.

    Dresses a 6 or 8 -- depends, again, on the cut.

    I am 5' 8 1/2", medium frame (used to think I was large frame), and weigh 133.2. Trying to get back to 135-136 as I see too many bones around my collar and no fat on my face. Don't want a scrawny look. We are all built so different.

    At 5'1 I'd love to be a size 5. Currently I'm a 9.
