Hi ladies! Just wondering what size everyone is. Right now I'm 126lbs and a size 2-4. I started my journey at 196lbs and a size 16.


Have a great day!

    Started at 184 and was a size 16. Now I'm 150 and a size 8, sometimes a 10 depending on brand. I look about 20 pounds lighter than I actually weigh.

    You're my hero. i am 5'2 SW 192.5 wearing a 14 but should be in a 16, CW 184.8, wearing a 14, hoping to GW at 125 and be a size 6 or 8 (I was 130 at my wedding and wearing a 8 but I have had 3 kids since then so I would be happy at a 8!) Heck, most of my nice clothes are in 10's so i would even settle for that!

    I'm 5'2' and weigh 160 wearing a size 6. When I lost 15lbs earlier, I still wore a size 6. Although I gained throughout my twenties, I still remained wearing the same size pants which I always found to be quite odd, that's why I never realized that my weight had gone up so dramatically.

    i am 5'1", but i started at 193 and i am currently 151. I am an apple shape, and my legs are small and i have no real bum, but my upper body is big. I am wearing an 8 and even some size 6, but still have a big belly on top. I wont get much smaller than a 6, but might wear some 4s at goal weight 120-125lbs.

    edited to add: starting out iwas wearing size 14 jeans

    I'm 5'3 190lbs and a large UK16, I tend to wear 18's for comfort. Can some of you folks across the pond explain US sizes to me? I know they are different to ours. It would be nice to understand what you guys mean when you say you're a 4 etc?

    5'3 at 132 in a size 4 or size 27 jeans (when the sizes go by waist/hips measurements)

    I moved from a 6 to a 4 by only losing 5.5 pounds (Started at 137.5), but with those 5 pounds I lost a LOT of inches. All my size 6s are currently falling off.

    Interesting, I am 5'2 so I was curious to see since it's CLOSE to my height.
    I'm 5'2, 128lbs and am a size 6 or 7!
    Working on getting back down to about 110-115 and building some muscle now

    I'm 5'4", weigh 137 and measure in at a tight 4 to loose 6 (37.5" hips). Most of the brands I wear (Old Navy, Ann Taylor) I actually fit very well into a size 2, but I know that's probably vanity sizing.

    I'm 5'1" and my starting weight was 159 lbs (size 12). I'm now 147 lbs (size 10 and sometimes 8). I have a booty, so I have bigger pant sizes than most of you at this weight ;) I'm hoping to get to a size 6-8 at 125 lbs! I don't think I'll see size 2-4 ever again hahaha :)

    I'm 5'4" and I average between 145-150lbs. I can wear a size 10 in any brand, from any store. There are a few places I can wear 8's, but have found that most places cut their 8's too narrow in the hips (Why doesn't anyone understand that my waist can be an 8 and I just need a little extra room in the hips? Instead I buy the 10 that fits in the hips and I have to belt the heck out of the waist..blah). I can currently wear a size medium or large shirt depending on the brand.

    I started at 203lbs in a size 18/20 and XXL shirt.

    Hmm -- I'm 5'3" weighing 145lbs -- my pants vary depending on brand too
    ones are now are 11 but pretty big -- and others are a 7 and sometimes 9..wtf

    my problem is they are tight on the legs and loose around the waist

    I started my weight loss goal Jan 1, 2012. I am 5"3 and was 128 lbs. in a size 6-8. Now I'm down to 119 and a size 4 is baggy on me!

    I am hoping to stop at around 115.

    5'3, highest at 130, now 117, trying to get to 115, lowest at about 110. Trying not to focus on the scale, but inches and how my clothes fit. I'm a Jillian Michaels follower and right now I'm doing Body Revolution. I wear anywhere from a 0 - 4, depends on the brand. Everyone's different, even at the same height. I have broad shoulders, narrow hips - I have a butt, boobs and muscular legs. Just trying to get lean muscules all over right now - and still have a bit of a stubborn belly pooch from 3 pregnancies. :)
