I took the past month off to let my body rest so my weight has changed.
Today, I am 6' 1" and 174 pounds. I am what I would call skinny-fat. Being a naturally skinny guy, if I dont workout I tend to lose weight and muscle mass. Now its back to the 2-3 times per day workout routine so that I can get back to around 182 lbs or so.
I have almost completed my weight loss challenge. I am female 5'5" 140!!!
Back in sept I was 190.
I am now back to pre baby weight (heavier but fitter and a pant size smaller than I was when I was 23)
I wear a size 6
36 27 36.5
Currently I'm wearing 28/29s in denim, but I think the brands I'm wearing tend to run larger (Joe's Jeans, True Religion, R&R.) Most of my other pants are 8s or 10s. Anything larger falls off of me.
Dresses are L or XL or 10-14 depending on the manufacturer. The difficulty for me is trying to find things to accommodate my chest size.
Tops are L or XL, again because of my chest size.
Twenty years ago I wore a size 12, but I still have some of my skirts and dresses from high school and fit into them fine.
I wear a size 10 or 12 in pants depending on the brand. Most of my tops are size medium (36DD bra so I'm not small chested but they don't LOOK like 36DD's). Dresses are an 8 or 10 depending on how they fall. A fitted dress is a 10, something that cinches in the waist and flows over the hips is an 8.
In the last 3 months I've lost 20lbs so most of my 12's are much too big around the waist but I do not want to buy too many 10's...hoping the weight will still decrease at a steady pace. Until then...I guess I'll just wear a belt or keep hiking up my pants.
I am 5'2 weigh 189 and wear a size 16 jeans. In June, 8 months ago I weighed 260 and was in a tight 22 jeans. I got diabetes and I have to get this weight off of me fast. I think if I get in the 150's I would be a 12???
Congratulations! That's wonderful! Keep it up! Good luck to you!
Speaking of sizes; why is it people who produce sweaters assume someone has to be obese to have long arms? I got broad shoulders, and long arms, but my upper body is pretty much V-shaped. this makes for this sizing:
t-shirt size:Medium, sweater/shirt size XXL.
I'm always wearing a tent around the stommach, even if I wear a "slim fit" shirt.
And in jeans they always make the volume for the ass too big and the thighs too small, while keeping both in the inseam measurement :S
I weigh about 150, 5' 3", and I'm a size 4/6 depending on the cut. Funny thing is, I've dropped two pant sizes and not a pound in the past few months. I guess my composition is changing.
I always have issues with baggy waists and gapping in the back with my pants though, so I'm not sure what my true waist size is.
