    Wow! You look great. Congratulations, and keep up the good work.

    I, too, started in 14's (even a few 16's), and now I'm down approximately 40 lbs and in a size 4. I'm shorter than you, though, so we look very similar!

    It's a good feeling.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Great job. I am the same height as you, yet for some reason i don't hit a size 6 until I'm about 135 lb... weird.

    Her body fat may be lower or she may have a bigger frame. I don't remember what I weighed at size 6, but currently I am a size 4 at 5'6" and 139 lbs. I am small framed. We really can't compare ourselves to others because of all the variables.

    I am the same height and after 30 lbs I am not a comfortable size 10 but I can wear some. It also depends on shape and where you carry the weight. I would say I am a size 6/8 on top but that is where I lose my weight the most and first. I am hips, butt and gut ha ha. I thought at 160 which is my goal weight would be a size 8 and I think I will need to hit 150 lbs which is fine.

    Yes, every body IS different. I'm 5'3" and I'm a size 4 at 114 lbs. 122 for size 6, probably.

    I think this is why so many people get offended at comments about their heights and weights. I've seen people being very critical of us short gals wanting to weigh under 115 lbs. But if I weighed 135, I'd be probably a size 10!
