Not sure where I want to be in a year from now. Is there anyone here that is approx FIVE ft tall and say a size 8 or 10 with pics?
Just wondering what that size looks like on a short person.

    I am a bit taller, 5'2 and currently in an 8. I still consider my size 8 bigger goal weight. At my height I felt great at 125 size 5. I hope to return, maybe some day surpass that but feel free to check it out. Not the best pics granted...but...

    Feel free to add me, I am sure I will get around to posting more photos.
    And good luck!

    A friend of mine just told me about this site.
    You put in your height and weight and it lets you look at pics of people at or around that size.
    Hope it helps!!!

    haha. I'm 5'2.5 (as dr. who measured HIMSELF this am! i need that extra .5 haha)

    I weigh 151.6 and I wear a medium 7/8 right now in most clothes. This dress is a medium and I wear a size 9 in shoes. I just have really skinny long feet. People see them and think they're 6, >.<

    HEY !

    I just checked out mybodygallery.com

    As expected ... no search results for my particular stats. I'm an oddity : )
    I'm not going to struggle with posting a pic here, but within my profile, there is a full body pic taken in March - tie dyed black yoga top. Was actually wearing size 10 jeans in that pic, have lost inches, but no weight since then.

    Anyhooo.

    Age 48, 5'4, 189 pounds. Size 8 jeans; size L top (sometimes a Medium)

    The closest pics I could find on mybodygallery was 150 pounds. Some looked close to me - others NOT. Some a bit smaller, others larger. Just goes to show that every single person is different .. so can't easily say what a size or a # on the scale is going to look on anyone. YOU. You are unique :)

    I dont wanna be any thinner, than wearing a size 8(size 6 tops). Im 5'3 and thats were i feel most comfortable. Some bodies CAN NOT get past a certain size. At my thinnest i was a size 4 and i hated it. I had no *kitten* or tits. Now that ive had my daughter, my hips have spread (thanks baby ;) lol) so i dont see me getting any lower than a size 8

    I'm just under 5'1" and my profile picture, taken last summer, shows me at about 120lbs, UK size 8/10.
    In the last year I have lost and then gained weight but I am now about 118lbs and size 6/8 because I'm a lot more toned!
    I need to update my profile pic!

    My first time posting a picture to a forum, so hopefully this shows up...
    I am 5ft 1 1/4" and wear a size 8 or 10 on the bottom (just a couple 6's) and weigh about 125, depending on the day.
    I am a size small or 6 on top. I'm not really trying to lose much more weight, mostly working on building some muscle
    now, although I wouldn't mind losing another 5 lbs eventually. I am very pear shaped and don't wanna lose my bum.
    I am 41 btw



    race.jpgOk. edit...not sure what I did wrong but hopefully you can see it through the link.

    I should add I was a size 2/4 a few yrs ago when an intestinal parasite I picked up in Mexico wreaked havoc on my body for awhile til the drs figured out what was wrong with me. I was sickly thin and never want to be below a size 6/8 again.

    I'm 5 foot 1 or thereabouts, I was a 10 before I started tracking what I eat and I'm now an 8 but can fit into size 6 clothes (but that's depending on shops, might be an 8 in one shop and a 6 in another).
    My profile picture is almost 12 months old though; when I was a size 10. Hope that helps.
