    I want to be whatever size I can look in the mirror and say, damn, I feel really good about how I look! Not sure what size that'll be yet.

    Right now I am a Women's 12-14 and Juniors 13-15. I am hoping to get down to a Women's 6-8 and Juniors 7-9.

    I was wondering the same thing with the junior sizes unless you are a teenager? I have no desire to look like how I was as a teenager or other teenagers. The beginning of this year in January I was a size 10 pushing a size 12 and a large shirt, I'm pretty short 5' 3". Much of the weight was in my face/abs/back/legs.

    I'm at a size 4 (woman's) pants/dresses and a small shirt now and I am very happy with my size. I'm striving for the last 6 lbs mainly to get my body fat % down and to just to have a more fit/athletic build. Also to get rid of the mommy belly that is so stubborn to lose.

    I don't have a clothing size goal because it will usually vary depending on what brand and what style. I'm just looking to get to a point where I'm happy with what's staring back at me in the mirror. The numbers on the scale and clothing tags aren't my motivation.

    I completely agree with you! I was wearing a size 12 in middle school so, clothing size just doesn't even appeal to me. Especially since I have no boobies and a big booty. It's so funny that in my past I used to be happy with myself and I convinced myself I was born this way and was just going to be overweight my entire life. Then a little over a year ago I realized that i do have control and although I am happy with who i am, i don't have to be anything other than what I want to be and that is happy and proud of my accomplishments.

    I'm currently between a size 14 and 16. When I felt my best, I was a size 4. I would settle for a 6.

    When I started losing weight, my goal size was 14. I just bought a pair of size 10 jeans, and I still have an overweight BMI. So I really don't know what my goal should be. It would appear that there was actually a petite-sized woman under all that fat.

    i was in a 16/18 in high school--was a few pounds overweight then.
    Would love to try to get into 14s--I think 12s would be pushing it.

    Well...way back when I was 110 pounds(at sixteen) I was in a size six. At 149 I"m in a size 8. I sure believe in vanity sizing! WTH!
    Anyways, since I have 15 lbs I want to lose...I'm sure I'll be in a size six again. 25 lbs heavier than last time I was in a size six.

    Soooo, I don't know what to think about the size of clothes. I think fat percentage is a better gauge.

    Vanity sizing is RIDICULOUS!

    That being said lol I prefer American Eagle jeans b/c they make my butt look good...I want to wear a size 2 in their jeans (they run bigger)
    My jeans run from a juniors 4-7/8 (there was a comment about misses brands...I stopped wearing dress pants from the misses department b/c they didn't make them smaller than a 4 and I needed like a 2 in misses)

    In LEI brand I wear a 7, I'd like to be a 5....

    Pretty much I don't want to own a pair of pants with a tag number any higher than 5

    I'm aiming for a UK size 10... I'm a 12/14 on top and a 14/16 on bottom at the moment...so may end up 8 on top, 10 on bottom...seems so far away though :-((

    I'd love to be a UK size 10 again - (that's USA 6). I'm just 5' 1" and 53 - so I don't want to look scary and scrawny - so if I just get rid of all the flabby lumpy bits, and tone up and have a healthy lifestyle for the rest of my life - I'll be delighted!!! That's my aim. I also feel a duty to my young teenage daughter to be a good example of healthy, fit, and shapely - but not obsessed with the media's/fashion's ideal!!!!! (I have quite a way to go - but it's going the right way now! Hard work, isn't it - but - oh - so worth it!!!):smile:

    Good luck everyone!

    When I started this journey, my goal was to be in a size 10. I've have since passed that and I'm currently in a size 8. I am 8 pounds away from my goal weight of 135. So a 6 is my goal in clothing size, but that's not as important as my health. I have been doing this to be healthy!! That is my ultimate goal. I still have toning to work on, epecially the thighs!! :happy:

    I think 10 or even 8, so I can steal my sister's clothes! She always has the cutest stuff, but I can't wear any of it yet.

    My goal is to be a size 10 which given my height would put me somewhere around 160 pounds. :)

    most of my jeans are a 20. one pair of levi's is a 22. one pair an 18. none of them fit now. i don't own a single pair i can't slip off without unbuttoning. i am down 31 pounds so far.

    3 weeks ago i could sausage myself into 16s at old navy and kohl's. my goal right now is for those 16s to fit by black friday shopping with my in-laws. girl needs some new clothes! everything looks so sloppy and loose!

    ultimately i have no idea. i try and wrap my head around how much i would love to be able to buy clothes in a regular store. i am very into fashion and would love to take a more active role in it. i'm almost there. once i can do that i really only care about being fit and healthy. if i recall i was a 10 or 12 when i was in the 7th grade. that would probably look nice LOL

    I started this journey at a size 26 and am now in a size 20 (almost in an 18), I seriously cannot remember ever wearing anything lower than a 14 in my lifetime so I would say a size 10 or 12 would be wonderful for me. I would just like to walk into a place like Old Navy and be able to actually buy something that fit and looked good rather than buying mens shirts and bypassing pants all together.

    Right now I'm a 12 sometimes 14 because of my hips... My goal was size 10 but more and more I think about it, I'd really like to be in the healthy for my height range :smile: waist under 30... Right now it's 31 :bigsmile:
