Hey tall ladies! Im 6"1' and my sizes have stayed pretty consistent. Im usually 1/2-1 whole size smaller on the top than the bottom.

In the beginning:

344- 24/24 top 26 bottom both (pretty snug)

Now:

298- 18-22 top (varies by store) 22/24 bottoms

If I remember correctly I should be an 18/20 (top) and 22 (bottom) at 280. I dont have any weight lower than that to compare. Anything below that was when I was 14, didnt weight myself, and wore men's jeans. Womens' 36 inseams were hard to come by in '94. They still are.

The funny thing is that I have always fit a Gap xxl top.

the moral of the story: Ive been fat for a long time.

I'm 5'5" and 184. I fit into size 10 or 12 pants, but tops I am at least an XL.

My daughter, on the other hand, is about the same height, 199, and fits into size L tops, but wears size 16 jeans.

If we stand face to face, maybe we look like one of those yin-yang drawings.

It's amazing how much size differences a few inches of height makes! At 5'2" I am still in an 18-20 (L-XL) at 188 lbs. I guess I'd have to lose another 100 lbs to get down to a size 10 or 12. Very frustrating!! I've noticed over the years (and I'm 63) that at my height I can divide my weight by 10 and know my approximate clothing size (ex: at 240 lb I wore a 24, at 280 lbs I worse a 28).

~sigh~

I used to be able to list off the size that I wore at a certain weight, for example I packed 14/16 tops and 18/20 bottoms for my honeymoon when I weighed about 240 -ish. I'm about 5'9" Now however after delivering a baby via emergency c-section I can no longer tell. At 269 lbs my top is already down to and 18/20 and my bottom is firmly lodged at a 23 due to a nice shelf that is left over from giving birth.

I will be estatic once my whole body is in the 18 range and I can shop in New York and Company. I guess it's a personal goal of mine.
