Question:
What was your weight when you wore size 4,6,8, or 10?

I know everyone is different especially when it comes to the rate you lose, the type of surgery, height plays an important factor and other things which may be genetic, but I'm not sure where I am right now in terms of the size I wear and want to wear. It depends, I guess, on the style of clothing and whether it's a "designer brand" or generic. My weight is fluctuating between 158-160, and I can wear a 12, but some 12's are waayyy too big~~(like what I'm wearing today)! So, if I go to a size 10, then some of them either fit just right (designers) or too tight. I'm trying to set my goal which seems to be changing regularly. Can you see why I'm uncertain? I'd like to be at 115 lbs and can go as far as 110 without looking like I've been in a famine! What size and weight are you?    — yourdivaness (posted on June 10, 2003)

about 8 years ago I did a starvation diet which lasted a year... but I got down to 168lbs at my lowest. I am 5'7" and I wore a 6/7 at that time. I had NEVER worn a 6/7 before, I think I went from diapers to a size 12... then 16... then 22.. then slowly into a 24. hehe.. I'm still pre-op, but I look forward to the day of wearing a size 10 or 12 again. :) ~ Kim ~

I am 5'0" and currently 120 lbs (+/- 3 lbs) and wear size small pants (which could be between 4-9/10). I wear size S or M shirts (again depending on cut). Hope this helps you.

Right now I weigh 184 and am wearing a 14. When I was 135 back in 1989, I wore a size 10 in most bottoms, and a large or an occasional medium on top. Liz Claiborne was cut larger and I could wear an 8. I am 5'7".

Let see, I'm 5'7" and with a medium frame. At 190 lbs I was a size 14, a size 12 at 175 lbs, a size 10 at 160 lbs, at 150 lbs I was an 8, a size 6 at 140 lbs and now at 125 lbs I'm between a 2 and a 4 depending on the brand. you can usually count about 1 size down per 15/20 lbs lost until you get to the sizes 10 then it's about 1 size down per 10 lbs or so.

At 135-140, I wear 6's and 8's. At 160 I was in a 12. 180 a 14. Before I gained I was 155-160 and wore 14's. I think sizes are bigger now. I actually saved a pair of jeans from when I weighed 150 (14's, early 90's), I wasnt able to wear them until I was wearing a 10/12.

You didn't mention your height, but that is definitely a factor also. I am 5'8". I wore a size 10 at 165 pounds, a size 8 at 150 pounds, and wear a 4 or 6 now at 124 pounds. I can wear a 4 in some pants but need a 6 (sometimes even an 8 depending on the cut) for the top since my breast lift/augmentation. That means if I buy a size 6 dress I have to have it taken in in the hips. Weird, since I was always a pear shape until I went below 150 pounds. Now I'm a stick - but with boobs! hugs, Ann rny 9/10/99 260/124
