This past weekend I bought my first pair of size 12 jeans since I was in college. I'm pretty close to goal now (6 pounds to go), so I doubt I'll be getting down to a size 10. But then I see people who are still over 200 pounds fitting into size 10s. So I was thinking about how different body shapes and heights really affect clothing sizes. I've been in a size 10 dress since I was over 180, but even at 170 I'm only just NOW fitting into size 12 jeans. I carry so much of my weight in my hips and thighs! So for the sake of curiosity, please post your stats and what size pants you are wearing now. If you have photos, that's even better! My most recent gallery pics are unfortunately pretty outdated. I think I was 185 and wearing size 16 jeans in those pics.

Just bought a new pair today and they are loose in the waist, but I've got hips, thighs, and calves that are still large.

The last time I was this weight I was a size 16 ????

I'm pre-op, and i've been this size since i was like 15 (34 now).

weight: 272.

height: 5'8"

size: 22/24 depending

I'm an "apple", I'm native and recently diabetic. My lowest in my adult life was 244, and that was training for a marathon. That was a size 16/18, and i was pretty happy then! But i naturally hit about 275 normally, highest was after college, 289.

Congrats on hitting a size 12!

My stats are:

Weight: 126

Height: 5'2

Jeans/Pants: 0,2,4- depends on brand

Shirts- XS

Dresses- XS,S,0,2,4

5'6"

135

Size 4 jeans

But I totally agree that cut of the jeans matters! I have large calves (I say it's from running, but I've always had disproportionately large calves) so for the life of me I can't wear skinny jeans, they don't fit my calves! They have to have a slight flare or boot cut

I feel ya on the large calves, i last measured at 18" and there is almost no fat on them. I inherited them from my mother. It's one thing i actually not expecting to change much, but if they did, it would be nice to fit into normal knee-high boots for once.

You think that's big?!?! You're 5'8" and 272. I'm 5'6" and 167 and my calves are 16.75" still!

Weird thing about my weightloss. My whole life I had big legs. Tree trunk legs I used to call them. I was thin in college and only gained weight when I got pregnant, yet still had big legs and thighs. I could never buy jeans.

This time, my weight came off my legs the most. They are stick legs now!!! Is that not so weird? Rail thin. I have to wear skinny jeans. Even stretch pants can be too big on the legs. Very strange.

Jeans are hard to tell what size I wear...I put on my 18's and they fit perfectly, then an hour later they are falling down to my knees ???? my 16s are too tight. Same with my non-Jean pants
