Just curious.... Don't have to answer if you don't want to...

5' 3 and 1/4" don't forget the 1/4"

Size 5-6, 118

Me too. It seems like sizes really depend how you carry your weight. I am very slender from the waist up - definitely have more of a "booty" - LOL! So I usually wear a 6 bottom but a size 2 suit jacket.

I would like to weigh closer to 130, to be comfortable in a bikini (which means, around March I will start jogging more!). I'm okay with my weight now if I'm working out and toned, which I'm not right now.

You are absolutely right it depends how you carry weight. To just about everyone they consider me very thin or fit. Its funny because I think I have hips and a bit of a booty...others would beg to differ My ideal weight is 135-138, and will eventually hit that goal!

I too can wear a size 2 or s/m in blouses or jackets as long as the jacket has short sleeves since my arms are long.

I am 5'4 1/2" (yes, I have to add that 1/2 ) and weigh 196. Hopefully that will be 193 by the end of this week (just started my diet). I wear a size 18. I consider myself overweight, but I think the dr considers it obese. I've had some eye problems lately, and am terrified of diabetes. I am going to try and get really serious with the weight loss. I'd be very happy at 150.

 

[Judy from Boise]

5' 9" and right now 150. I am dissapointed I let myself creep up there since for the last 15 years I have been 135, but that is what complacency gets you. I am planning on slowly taking it back down to 145....but at the same time I am in a race to menopause so can't perdict the future.
I am a pear ! 10 longs or 12 regular.

I am 5'4 and 150 and consider myself fat. But a little background.....I recently lost a 100lbs on weight watchers....so in my eyes I still see myself as fat. I wear between a 4 and 8 (depending on who makes the clothes!)

I know how you feel I am 5'8 and 150 lbs. and always see myself as overweight. I, too, lost 145 lbs. on weight watchers and have been at goal for 3 years but you never forget the old self I wear a size 8 in casual pants and a 10 dress slacks.

 

[Kitty 34]

I'm 5'8, 155 lbs and am sitting here in Size 16W jeans from JCPenney's. At 55 yrs old I don't consider myself too overweight.

 

[coolbeans]

5 foot 2 inches and 146 (yup got up to weigh myself just for this poll).. size 12 (i do have some 10's that fit.. but they getting mighty tight!)
i consider myself overweight.

 

[tink20]

5'8" and 125 lbs, size 4 sometimes 6. I would like to tone my muscles, I do not have a flat tummy, which bothers me. I would really like to get into a exercise routine, but I don't want to loose any weight, I used to be way underweight.

 

[MomNeedsVacay]

I'm 5'6" and weigh 124-126 # but my personal goal is 120# ... I've had three babies, but I won't use that an excuse... I do work my buns off after each pregnancy to get back down to my pre-preg size 4. I'm a size 4 now, but for some reason want to get all the weigh down to 120#.

I work out alot. I work out everyday because I love to!! I run and do classes at the gym that include lifting weights, boot camps, and Body combat classes. I'm starting to see real definition in my arms ala Linda Hamilton in Terminator...ha!!
I would consider my build as healthy/ athletic.

 

[tinatark]

5'1 ish", just under 150. I wear a 4-6-8 pants (mostly 6) and feel like I need to lose some more weight - would prefer to be 125 or so.

 

[smkiya]

I'm 5'6", 146lbs, size 6. I need to lose 10-15lbs to get back into my size 2's. I gained over 50lbs with my pregnancy, ds is approaching 6 months and I'm waiting until after the holidays to tackle those last few pounds. I do not consider myself thin, but borderline overweight. I'm a lifetime member of Weight Watchers, it's great!

 

[::Snow_White::]

5'3, 125-130, size 4-5 depending. I'm very fit and very healthy, and I do consider myself thin!

 

[Caradana]

I'm 5'4", 148 lbs., and very uncommonly apple-shaped for a woman, which is honestly not a bad thing, because I carry weight that's easy to disguise. I'm 36-31-36 (yup, that's a thirty one in the middle). I fit great into an eight in anything that's not tight around the waist. If it's tight around the waist, I put it back on the rack.

 

[redlight]

5'5.5" and 156. My 8s are tight and my 10s are generally comfortable. I'd like to lose about 15 pounds. I'm a pear, my hips are large and my stomach is basically flat.

 

[kellyg403]

5'2 around 125 to 130. Mostly a size 8 but 10's aren't a stretch!

I have come to the conclusion that I was a teen when being thin was the rage...hey Twiggy was our idol. You could buy the little diet pills, that are now banned, in the 7-11 if you had to lose 5 pounds by friday.

I am 45 now, some gray hair and have had 7 babies. I am FINALLY getting to the point in my life that I realize all the damage I have done to myself. So, now I walk every night, I try to eat healthy (OK, I have a hershey's with almonds everyday but I consider that to be healthy enough) and don't worry so much about the scale. Its been very freeing if I might say so! Would I love to be a size 3/4 again..sure but those days are over and I don't mind saying goodbye!

[WDWisOurHappyPlace]

5'7", 148 pounds, 48 years old. I bought 2 jeans last week in a size 8. But depending on the brand, I can fit size 10 sometimes. I WILL go back to 130 pounds one of these days. I start trying every Monday.

This is a very interesting thread.

(My friend weighs 20 pounds more than me, is my height and wears the same size as me.)

 

[nutterbutter2010]

I guess we all carry our weight differently, but I'm 5'1 (barely) 133 and I wear a size 6, and I'm going towards a size 4. At my height and weight, I would think that I would be in a larger size. Also, I'm a pear shape. I do run, so maybe I have a lot of muscle weight?

 

[GothTink]

I'm 5'4" and weigh 148lbs, wear a size 9, size small and medium tops. I consider myself getting to thin.

A year ago, I weighed 256lbs and wore a size 24. I was really, really overweight.

 

[PatsGirl]

5'1, 148# (just lost 30# this summer and back to my "normal" self, lol), middle-aged and a size 10-12. Would like to lose another 15#, right now I'm still feeling a bit chubbette In my younger days, I looked best at 125 or so but with age I'd rather have a few extra on me

I'm 5'4" and weigh 148lbs, wear a size 9, size small and medium tops. I consider myself getting to thin.

Congrats on all the weight loss that is amazing and have fun on your upcoming trip in 4 days.
