    I'm 5' 7'' and weigh around 150-155.
    I have both sizes 8 and 6 from the GAP and usually wear a medium top, but I have small and large in my closet too! It depends on the brand and how I want the shirt to fit.

    I'm 5'7" and weigh 138. Now I'm in a very loose size 8 and small/medium top. I can probably go to a size 6 maybe 4 but don't want to buy all new clothes yet till I lose another 8lbs.

    i'm 5'7" was 220 in Feb. 2011, size 18/20.


    Started MFP at 196 on 2/3/12

    Current weight: 192 (as of 2/25/12)
    Current dress/jean size: 14

    Goal weight: 150-159 (just enough to not be overweight for my height)


    I meet with a trainer 3 days/wk and do at least 45 mins of cardio 2 days/wk.

    Looking for friends to keep up with, so add me if we're at a similar weight!

    I love this topic! I am 53, 5'6" and weigh 136, trying to lose another 9 pounds. My pants are size 6, but I think I need a 4 because they don't seem to fit very well. When I was younger, obviously the same height, weighing in at 110, my pants were size 5. HA! I think it is a feel good tactic by clothing manufacturers.

    This is making me really jealous! I am 5' 8" almost, and I was very happy at 165 to be in a size 12.
    At 227 lbs I was busting out of my size 18 jeans.
    At 207 lbs I am pretty comfortable in my size 16s.

    I suppose if it takes me long enough to get back down to 165, and the dress sizes keep getting larger, maybe instead of a 12 I'll be wearing a 6? LOL.

    I am 5'7" tall and I started MFP at 217 pounds and a size8 were a perfect fit for me. Now I am down to 198 and 18's real loose but 16 still tight. Sizes are so different from store to store and brand to brand. I can't wait to be a 12 again.

    Hello!

    I'm 5'6" currently weighing at 198 lbs , wear L/XL shirts, stuck between a 38D and 40D Bra (38 too small and 40 too big) and a jean size 15, size 13 in shorts (Why? I haven't figured that out yet.)

    Planning on weighing in at 150 lbs, which was what I weighed in High School class 2006. That was a dress size 6 I believe? Correct me if I'm wrong.

    I'm 5'7", weigh 170, and size 10 pants are just starting to get a little loose in the legs and rear. I carry my weight in my mid-section. I wear a large top as my shoulders are on the broader side.

    I'm 5'8.5 and weigh 170, my 8's are tight but my 10's fit pretty good, At 160 my 8's fit good so I am trying to get back to that. I am 48 years old and this weight just doesn't want to leave, but now that the holidays are behind us and summer is coming, I intend to start hitting it hard!!!!
