Statistics - What size are you at what weight?

I'm 5'4(& a half) & weigh 11st 5.5lb. I'm, currently a 12 top & 14 bottom.

Even when I weighed 13st I was a 12/14 top & a 14/16 bottom whereas I've read lots of stories where people weigh the same as my starting weight but are a much bigger size. I've never quite got it!

I was thinking how different these sizes all seem :confused:

Shirleen is almost the same height AND SIZE as me but weighs 18st 6.5lb whereas I weigh 22 st 4.5lb! 4 stone less than me but the same size?!?! :confused: :sigh:

And X Kelly X is almost identical to me in both height/weight but is a size smaller than me.

I dont get it :sigh:

I don't get that either but I am a total pear shape, I lost a bit on my shoulders and arms and my legs but all my weight is concentrated on my tummy and the back of my hips and bum ( lots of junk in my trunk lol). In fact from the front my figure is nearer an 18. I turn sideways and I look a size 26! I have no weight to lose round my ribs and nominal back fat! My knees are a little bit chubby but no fat on my calves or wrists. Oh and no boobs!!! So it could be weight distribution?
 
ahh that makes sense, somewhat

see i have an hourglass shape- and it's like I am pretty well proportioned, just fat...if that makes sense- everything is evenly distributed- all of me is big lol.

My chest-waist-hips were 51-45-53, and they're now 47-38.5-51- so i'm not losing it as evenly as I would like....but I'm getting there- I'm sure my bum will catch up eventually! My thighs have gone from 34" to 30" (just under) too :D
 
It is quite fun to see how we all differ.. even my mum and I vary wildly in build - so I'm really pleased to see we are all individuals!!

Wish I had taken my measurements when I started - gosh :wow:littlebubblez, your waist is really shrinking!!

PS.... loving your blog x

I agree with sizes differing in different shops. Topshop and river island are the worst

5' 5" and 12st 6lbs. A size 14 bottom (or VERY stretchy size 12 jeans or jeggings) and size 16-18 top, but I have always been top heavy.

I have a beautiful statuesque friend who is 6' 2" with the most amazingly long legs and she can only get trousers from Long Tall Sally :sigh:

 
Yes I find it a nightmare finding good fitting trousers! Never heard of this sallyshop? Sometimes I find tall trousers too long or not a good fit on the waist! Def can't wait to get down to a 16-18! I would be happy being a 14 at my height!
 
I am 14st 9.5 and just over 5' (only diddy,me! Lol) I'm a size 16/18 on top and an 18 on the bottom, though I did recently get a pair of 16's from Dotty P's. They're a but snug but still OK! :D

Yeah maybe, Im pretty huge all over, but it kicks off big time below my waist, my arse is HUGE and so are my thighs... :( My legs are pretty big all the way down.

Ha ha you look like an 18 from the front :D I look a 28 all the way around :D

Got measured the other day, Im

Hip: 158cm = 62"
Waist: 134cm = 53"
Under bust: 116cm = 46"
Bust: 133cm = 52.5"

Is that how you do it? Not which bits you measure so I had to guess. I found some measurements I made 3 years ago:
57" bust
56" waist
66" hip

so that's cool to see it go down! :) God knows what I was even a year ago as I put a lot on since those measurements! :eek:

Also, loks like my boobs are shrinking which is odd as I swear they're the one bit that hasn't changed :confused:
 
This is a really interesting thread, so this is where I decided to put my first post.

I'm 5 foot 2.5,
Weight 19st12 (as of last tues)
Size 22-24 on top, 24-26 on bottom (not blessed with much boobage!)

I've never worn a 16, I wonder what that would tally with weight wise on me, as everything is on my ample tummy and face / bingowings etc!

I agree, Im 13st at the moment and still 16 bottom and top,, I did just buy a next dress though and had to get a 14... and when I was a stone heavier I was an 18, whereas there seems to be alot of people several stones larger than me but a size 16? strange!
