When do you think I will be in a size 14?

Its funny what stupid questions you start thinking of :lol:

So I started at at snug 18 at 236 weight. Right now I am in a snug 16 at 208. But I can button them and zip them up. So thats about 25 lbs for one size. I know that as you get smaller the sizes change at more of 10 lbs (right?). So I am thinking another 20 lbs, I might be at a size 14?!?

Its been so long since I have been there :lol: I was kinda doing a personal goal and I would like to be at a 14 for my birthday in August. At my current rate, I might be at 185 or so by my birthday. Which if I remember correctly puts me in a size 14. I am about 5'7". Just wondering who out there is in a size 14 right now and how much you weigh. :)

Well, I started at 262......size 22 (ouch) I am 5'9", and now at 200 I fit into 15 juniors LEI brand from wall-mart and a 14 misses just doesn't fit right......at the end of the day I want to fit into a size 9 and wear a meduim top.........O.K. I may be happy with a 10, but I really want a 9. You know that is a single digit size.:Banane04:

Gosh I cant wait to be in those sizes I am a bit bigger then all of u and I cant seem to go down in sizes my clothes r baggier but still cant fit into.a smaller size yet and ive lost almost 50 lbs it is so frustrating!

I agree that it is all about how you are built. I weigh 183-185, and I am sitting here in a pair of size 8 shorts.

I am 5'7" and weigh 187 and fit into size 14 right now. My size 14's are just starting to get a little baggy but size 12 is still too small.

You'll get there! It takes a lot more loss to see size changes in the 30's and 20's than it does in the teens and singles. When I was GAINING weight, that made me happy (I could gain 20 lbs and still wear the same dang clothes!), but when I first started losing it was frustrating! This time next year you'll be posting about your tiny sizes :)

Bought some cute walking shorts at sams club today. Size 16 ;)

They are stretchy material, so I think I will be able to wear them thru the summer. But they fit goood. And I think I look skinny... Lol

I think I am going to wear them tomorrow. I might go back and get some 14's (they were $12) to have a pair for the end of the summer;) im so bad

Yea it's body shape.. I weight 240 and I'm wearing 16's... But, I've been this weight and wore 20's before. I've also been 200 and wore 16's I have noticed lately my body shape is changing all around, and my skin is changing.. it's all weird haha.

Don.t be frustrated,,, be glad that you are on your way to losing weight.

I know I am. Right now I am wearing a 2x in Capri's (ALL SIZES FIT DIFFERENT YA KNOW.)

Most of them are getting real baggy in the butt. So, when I get some smaller cloths.

I will list these on our clothing exchange site. They are in nice shape, but I will be

glad to see them go.

I started out 20 lbs heavier than you. I am a pear shape. I am 5'9 1/2" and have size 10 feet... I carry my weight from the waist down..especially in the legs. On the day of surgery I was down 22 lbs and still wearing 3x top, 44 B bra and 4x skirt. Today I am down 94 lbs and have on a XL shirt, 38B bra and a sized 20 skirt and all are roomy

I have decided there is no single answer to what size = what weight... it depends on so many factors. Because I am bottom heavy my legs tend to prohibit me from wearing somethings my waist and hips will fit in... Go figure!

My goal is to become more evenly proportioned and to be able to wear jeans that dont gap 10 inches in the waist!! I remember for a minute in my 30s I was in a sized 10 jeans weighing 175 lbs and a size S/M shirt. I am 1/2 way there!!!!

Live dangerously....buy a 12! ;)

I started out at 250 and 5'3", wearing size 26-28 shirts and 22 pants, now I am at 164 lbs and bought my first pair of size 8 jeans! I was so happy but I'm still wearing size 10 and 12 in some things. I think the sizes vary so much and that is the frustrating part.

Don't worry--I was close to your size when I started and I stayed in the same size clothes for awhile, just more loose--then I woke one week everything was falling off me. I was a 30/32 bottom, 26/28 top & bottom and nowI wear 18/20 bottom, and 14/16 top. As I exercised I loss more inches and made me fit into smaller sizes even when the scale does not show it.

It will probably hit you all at once and you'll drop two sizes fast! I pretty much bypassed size 16.

Same here. I bypassed 20 and 18. Wore a 22 for a long time. Then all of a sudden I was buying 16's.
