I mean 10 - 20 over the uppermost number of your "ideal bmi."

I'm 179 and myfitnesspal says a healthy BMI for me is 125 - 169 @ 5'9" so I'm 10 pounds over and a size 10 - 12.

How about everyone else?

    I'm 10 lb away from what I currently think is my goal weight (already at a 22 BMI) and I wear a size 6 pant...

    I'm 10 pounds from my goal weight and wearing an 6-8. But I'm also 5'1" with a well rounded backside. So I've never been much smaller than a 6. I want to be a 6 FULL TIME! :)

    Don't go by mine, I have a little more muscle mass than most women...I'm 5'5'', size 16, I weigh 204 and I'm about 3% body fat away from being considered a healthy weight. Good luck to you along your journey!

    At about 10 lbs over my 'healthy' zone, I was a 12ish (5'8, 175). I'm currently around 160 and I'm on the tight side of 8. Hoping 5-10 more will get me to an always comfortable 8. :bigsmile:

    I haven't set myself an overall goal yet but at the minute my goal is to reach 145lbs. I'm 5 ft 7 and weighing in at 155 (BMI: 24.27)

    Good luck on your journey peeps!

    I wear a size 10-11 but an 8 if it's stretchy jeans. It's funny becuase I am 174 lbs and want to lose 30 but I definitely don't look that heavy. I think it all goes to my chest. lol

    WOW! 122 has got to be skinny for you! A taller friend of mine is maybe a seven and she is in the high 120's.

    It is at the low end of my 'green zone' As long as I stay under 130 and have muscle tone. I am happy. I am just happy to be down form the 185 I was at one time.
