I was 178 & a size 12. After tummy tuck I'm now a 10 & ~167. Although we're tall, every girl is built differently! I've met tall girls that look thinner than me & wear a 14/16 so depends on where you're comfortable really

I'm 5'10 and at my smallest (155) I was a size 10. I was a size 12 around 170 or so and size 14 around 185/90.

I look damn good in a size 10/12. I have an hour glass figure and I have hips and large rear. It really depends on how you are shaped.

I am 6' and about 174 right now. I am in a loose 14 but the 12s are just too tight to be comfortable. My friends are always shocked when I tell them that I wear a 14 or around a 13 or 15 in juniors.

I'm 5'11, 153 and usually a 6, but I've been known to need some 4's. My dress pants are 8's, but some are roomy.

I started out a 190 and in a very tight 14.

It really is so variable! I"m 5'11" and am about 185 pounds right now. I'm not quite into a size 12 now, (14's are getting loose) but because of how I carry my weight, even when I weighed 150, I was STILL a size 12, sometimes a 10 but not usually.

I'm 5'11" and at 213, I'm a steady 16 (or 14W) right now. My goal is between 180-190 and preferably a 12 or 14.

Remember that clothes are cut and sized differently by different designers and more important than the number on the label is wearing clothes that fit and flatter!

Sadly, I think they are cutting clothes bigger these days (which doesn't make me feel good about my tight 12s in January ). About 6 years ago I was down to about 160 and was wearing an 8/10, no less than that. At 7 pounds lighter now I'm usually a 6. Each store cuts their clothes different, I can range between 3 sizes on any given day - but I think I'm a trimmer 153 now, where at 160 I wasn't working out...

Well, I guess we'll find out once I get back down to 150-160.... if I'm amazingly a size 8 or 10, then your theory holds! :bigsmile: If I'm STILL a size 12, then we'll know that the brands I usually wear haven't changed their sizing. (Also, I have clothes left over from then, so will be able to see whether I fit back into them)

Before i got pregnant i was in a size 10 and weight 219lbs. I am 6'2".

I am 5'11" and weigh 173 in size 12. I was a size 12 (US) when I was 160 as well, I think it takes a good 15lbs for me to go down a dress/pant size. I think a size 10 for me was 155ish and lower. I am hour glass shape with a big booty. I agree with others it is such a huge difference on where people carry weight. I love this topic though because I was curious too, I learned a lot. I don't think a size 12 is big either, I feel more comfortable in a size 10 but I wasn't upset when I saw myself in size 12. I thought I looked fine, it was only when the size 12 started to fit tight that I thought I should lose weight. That is also when I thought I was looking a bit on the heavy side.

Thanks Ladies for sharing!

Wow, this is so interesting to me! We can be the same height but sizes are SO different.

I am 5'11", I weigh 170lbs, and I wear a size 6.
At my heaviest of 210lbs, I wore a size 12.
At my absolute thinnest of 145lbs, I still wore a 6 and could squeeze into some 4's.

I am 6' even. I weighed myself this morning and I am 161 lbs. and currently wear a size 10. At my biggest which was 235 lbs. I wore a size 18 which were tight.
It is crazy how everyone is so different.
People are shocked when I tell them my pant size because they expect me to be smaller. Of course I lost my boobs during my weight loss and I lost some of my butt it is not as big as it was but its still there.
