How tall are you and what is your goal dress/pant size?



Recommended Posts

I am 5'6" and my goal dress size was size 8. Now my 8's are getting baggy and I can see that 6's and very possibly 4's are in my future! Whoo Hoo!! I never would have imagined.

So please, share your height and goal dress or pant size!

5'4" and ideal size is a 4. I can wear a 4-8 depending on who makes it. So I'm hoping to drop just a few pounds to be in a 4 more solidly.

I am 5'5" and was fine in a 9/10. I'm now in 7/8 jeans and medium tops and the jeans are a little loose. I REFUSE to drop another size so I have seriously upped my fat and carbs. Never thought stopping losing weight would be so hard :{ .

I'm 5'5" and about 15 lbs from goal of 140. I currently wear an 8 (some of them a little snug, some r baggy). I guess a 6 would be good. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I'd be in a 6. Sounds SKINNY to me. But I still have rolls....

I am 5 5 and a half. Currently weigh 189 and in a 14. Some a little loose

My larges are loose

Am hoping to get to 150 and then if I want to keep going maybe I will. Dunno. Never really had a goal outside of 150

Have sold or donated all my 16 and 18 clothes. Keeping my tshirts for now.

Have purchased two pairs sweat pants. 3 workout shorts and a couple tops and dresses for work. Refuse to spend too much

I'm 5'3 and 144. My current dress size is anywhere from a 4 to an 8 depending on the stretchiness of the material. I didn't really have a goal dress size, but I had a few pair of pants that I wanted to fit in again. They were a size 9 that I've fit into twice over the course of the last 12 years, and they now fit, a size 3 skirt (very stretchy, lol) that now fits, and a pair of leather pants that is an 8, which also fits now. I was really happy that I can shop in the juniors section again, that my shirt size is a small or a medium, and that shopping is once again fun instead of a complete nightmare. My wallet doesn't love that shopping is fun, but I certainly do! :)

I'm almost 5'5" and I look smashing in a size 8 :) I'm old, so I don't want to lose too much to prevent the "old lady, wrinkly,drawn in look". I can't wait to get to a size 8!

I'm 5'6.5" and hippie. Even at 150, I'm in size 10 pants and 8 dresses. I'm 10 lbs from my goal, and I don't see me ever getting under a size 8 in pants. Started at 26/28.

I am a mere 4'10" and 125lbs......my size 8 jeans are a little big but size 6 fits snug and causes the excess belly skin to roll over the top of my jeans. Not sure I have a goal size but I like what I see in the mirror at this size.

I am 5' (first thing in morning), surgery this Monday. It is impossible for me to imagine at this point smaller sizes. My closet lacks a single piece of clothing that is "too big" on me. This could be really fun!!

I'm 5'4", and currently in a size 10 pants, size small or medium top. The 10s are getting a little big, so I'm thinking I may end up in an 8 since I just had plastics. I'm happy with the 10, and I'd probably be a little happier in the 8, since that would be a novelty for me. Never could have imagined single digits! I 'll admit, I like vanity sizing, and someone my age can really appreciate it, since last time I was thin, spandex and vanity sizing hadn't been invented yet!

I am 52 years old, and I don't want to be skinny because it's starting to just make me look old/haggard/wrinkly when really I'm young and vibrant, lol. I don't think I will lose much more, just whatever comes off as a result of getting rid of excess skin.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
