What are your clothing sizes?

i`m 5 ft 1", was wearing a size uk 22/24(at least). now wearing sizes uk 18/20 depending on style and shop. my size 20 evans skirt (english clothes shop for larger ladies) is sliding slowly over my hips. i also got some new pyjamas last week and they are 16/18 and they fit - yipee. (okay the bottoms have a stretchy waist but the top buttons up comfortably). slim
 
sizes

I am 5' 5" and I weigh 130lbs and I wear a size 7. My thighs and butt are the biggets parts about me. Guess that comes from having three kids...LOL

5'9/249lbs
Bottoms 18/20
tops 1x in a pullover shirt, 22/24 if it's got buttons...

seems like it should be more than that in 3 months but - i'll take it...
 
My clothing size is pretty stable.. at my diet-start-weight, I was 228, size 18 US. Now I'm 212 and am.. a size 18 US. I don't imagine I'll lose but maybe 2 dress sizes as I lose weight.

At my highest adult weight (17 yrs old) I was 240 and a tight-18, baggy-20. At my lowest adult weight, 135 (when I was 19 yrs old) I was a semi-tight 12, semi-baggy 14, and my ribs were poking out. Even when I was skinny, I still wore a 36 DD, which is now a 38 DD.

Thanks to genetics for evenly distributed weight, those wide birthin' hips, and natural boobs that never seem to shrink when I do! Keeps my clothing sizes high, but lets me still look rockin' while I shed this weight. I'm 5'3" and 28 years old.
 
I am 38, 5'6, 143 lbs, and wear pants 8-12 (comfortable in 9/10), and tops small to medium.

I am finding that I carry a lot in my stomach area, which used to be my skinniest "asset." I guess age changes things!

Goal is back to sizes 4-6, but would be happy in 6-8. Health is more important than size, as I can make a 9/10 look okay. I just want to feel better.
 
This is an interesting thread...amazing to see the variations in body types.

I am 5'4" 162.5 lbs and wear a size 12 (US). (levis jeans)

For about every ten pounds I lose, I drop a size. When I got down to 136 lbs, I was wearing a size 6.

I think it's the cut of the pants, too. The style is this low rider jean with a narrow hip and boot cut. Coming up is the return of the "skinny pant". I used to be able to wear those!

Put me in a pair of size eight "mom" jeans with the narrow waist and bubble butt, and I'm okay. But a size eight hip rider pair and I feel like I'm wearing a vice. A pair of normal waisted "guy" jeans - 30/31, I'm comfortable.

Is it true that as you lose, your weight kind of shifts around? Or does it just feel that way?

Well, in the ultra-Low rise hip huggers I wear a 7, my hips are a 34, now I have a waist size of 28 but I don't have any mom jeans (I refuse to wear them)....

Oh, me too. I think they're horrid. But I have an old pair of 8 pants that are high waisted and bubble butted I use for painting or chores and they are far more comfy than my low riders, even though I like the look of the low riders better. I wouldn't be caught dead out of my yard with them, though.

It's not even that my butt is big... it's just that the space from my butt up to my hip bone is not as short as the low rider cut, and so it ends up feeling really squeezed.
 
I'm a uk size 12. At my very fattest i can verge on a 14, but that's rare. Occaisionally i'll be a 10 on top or in dresses but never in trousers.

My goal is to be an 8 but if i can get to a 10 for now i'll be happy. I don't carry weight well, i have a very very small frame so i think i need to be an eight.
 
When I started I was 185, wearing size 16 pants. Now, I"m down to 155 and can fit into 10-12 pants depending on the style.
 
Right now, I wear an 18 (USA) all though some of them are loose on me (where it feels like I should be in a 16) and some of the them are kind of snug. I'm really not sure what size I'll be when I reach my goal. I image around a size 5 or 6.
 
I'm 5'2", 155lb and currently a size 12 (UK), although some of my size 12 clothes are a bit tight. I plan to be a comfortable size 10.
