    Well, I went from a size 20 dress and am currently a size 12 dress. Can't answer for pants size as I don't wear them. And I'm 5'8".

    I'm not sure my highest. I couldn't get into size 16 jeans. Almost though. I just wore XL sweats at that point. Now I wear small in most things, medium if junior sizes and size 6 jeans. Oh, and I was over 200 pounds then and am 158 now. 5'10" tall

    Well, got some slacks at Ross the other day which are a size 12 which would mean I dropped 1 size in the dress slacks dept.
    As far as jeans, I recently bought a pair from Kmart and they are a size 10 which means I would have dropped 4 sizes!

    Not sure what size I truly am as all companies are different sizing wise but ya...

    I am 5'5, 167 and a size 8 in pants. i have lost a couple of inches, but not a lot of weight. I was wearing a size 11/12 or 9/10. now the size 10 pants that I brought in January of this year are really baggy and some are kind of falling down.

    As of today, 4 pants sizes. From a 16-8. Shirts L/XL, to a M/S (if they fit my DDD's). I'm 5'11 and my starting weight was 190. I'm 159 right now and the scale has been steady for about 3 weeks. I'd like to get to 155, but feel really good like this too!

    When I started my lifestyle change last April I was wearing:

    Dress - 4X, occassionaly 3X on looser style (30 -32 in numbered sizes)
    T-shirt - 4X
    Jeans - 30 women's
    Bra - 54C
    Undies - 13
    Shoes - 8 1/2W

    Today -

    Dress - 14W / 16 misses
    T-shirt - XL
    Jeans - 16, tight, but they zip :)
    Bra - 38C
    Undies - just bought size 8
    Shoes - 8 M

    And I still have almost 70 pounds to lose to my goal of 169 (I'm 5' 6 1/2" tall).... I am thinking I may, for the first time in my life, fit into a size 8 someday!!

    I'm about 5'10"; maxed out in 18/20 or xxl plus tops and dresses, some pants needed to be as big as 22/24. I am currently in 14 and 16 jeans and dresses, and women's large shirts, with a bit of a way to go yet!

    Ideally, when I reach my goal weight, I will no longer be "plus-sized"... it's a stigma I would really like to get out of. But even at less than my goal weight, I was a juniors' size 13... I'm not sure how much lower I can physically go! Plus, I fear it will make it more difficult to find pants with long or tall inseams.

    I'm 5' 5" and was in a size 14W pants and 16 jeans when I started at 187 lb and many of them were uncomfortably tight. Now that I'm 149 lb, I'm wearing size 10-12 pants and size 12 jeans comfortably. I carry my excess weight in my hips and thighs so that's where most of the weight was lost, so I'm still mostly wearing the same tops, they just fit a little looser.

    I was busting out of size 16 pants one year ago, and today I wear size 4 pants that are a tad on the loose side. I've lost over 66 pounds. (I am 5' 6").

    With my 12 pound weight loss I am finally down a size although tight. At 189.5 pounds and @ 5ft 7 I am wearing size 12. I look smaller than what I weight.

    I lost about five-six inches each off my hips and waist and about 30 pounds.

    Generally, I was wearing 8, 10 and sometimes 12, and now wear 2, 4 or 6 depending on the brand, but some of my old jeans are still completely wearable.
