Sizes?

Curious about what sizes people are at when they are at 170-180 which is my goal. I am 5'6". Trying to figure out what sizes that I could fit into when I am at goal. I see cute things at thrift stores and I would buy some smaller sizes if I thought I could wear them eventually! I can't imagine being in a large even.....and a medium seems beyond possible :) But I thought I would ask here and see if I can get an idea!

Thanks!

Hi! I weighed 174 today, I am 5'4'' and I wear a size 12 and medium or large tops. (I used to be a 24 and 2X)

I'm 193lbs now and wear size 12 pants and either XL or L tops. I'm 5-09. I have 33 more pounds until goal, so I'll be curious what size I end up. My 12 pants are about too big

All depends on your body. When My5'5" sister was 170 she was in a medium top and 12-14 jean

I am 5'6 as well and 168 lbs. I wear mostly M tops, some L. Pants vary from 6 to 10 depending....you will be in those sizes soon....I didnt think I would either but I am...it is fantastic to be able to shop normal sizes now! I was a size 20 pant and 2x, some 3x tops at the start.

I'm 5ft 5.5" and 193 lbs wearing size 16 bottoms & XL tops. My daughter is 5ft 4 in 175lbs and wears size 13 bottoms and XL tops.

I'm 5'3" and 170 lbs. I am in between a 16 and a 14.

It amazes me how different we are in shapes and sizes. I have seen people my height and weight (and even heavier) saying that they are wearing 10s and 12s.

I am 5'6", 145 lbs. I wear mostly medium tops, some large and VERY occasionally small. I wear mostly size 6 pants, sometimes 4 or 8. It's amazing how much sizes vary!!

I'm 167 and 5'6" and I wear a M top and 12 pant. I carried most of my fat in my tummy area so if it was smaller I would be in a 10. I lost mostly all of my rear so 12's fit my waist but are saggy in the rear.

I'm not sure if this helps but I have found a site where you can put in height and weight and body shape and if has pictures of people that are also that size. You can also search it by sizes too. Www.mybodygallery.com

5'4" 144 pounds 6 in jeans 7 or 8 in dresses/dress pants and M in tops.

This is very interesting how different we are. I'm 5'2 and 183. I'm wearing size 16 or 14 depending on the pant. Would love love love to be a 12. I'm almost 3 months out.

I'm 5'5" (5'6" on a good day) and when I was 160 i was in size 8 dress pants and a large top. I'm pretty top heavy, and straight from the ribs down when I lose weight. Right now I'm in 18 pants and 2x top. Can't wait to get my old clothes out. They were CUTE!! ;-)

I am 5ft 8 and weigh 199. I am a size 10 and Med top. I am so happy and shopping is fun again!!! I go to Ross or TJ Max every other weekend now! I think a size 8 is as small as my frame will allow me to be and was the size I was at my fittest weight 20 years ago!!!
