Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

I started Atkins on 1/1/09 at a size 18/20 & went down to a size 8/10 in Jean's & 2X~3X in Top's to X~Large !!!

Then due to having Lupus & becoming very sick with an Upper/Lower Resp Infection in Nov & Dec I had to go in Steroids/Pain Med's & regained 20 pounds!!!

Iam now wearing a size 12/14 depending on the make of the jean's, my weight goes right to my Tummy, Rear & Hipps !!!

Oh & X~Large is as low as I will go in tops as I have a Full Chest size !!!

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

I am petite, so my sizing is a bit different. But in petites, I wear a size 8 in pants, 6 in dresses, and M/L in tops. My goal is to be a size 4 in pants, 2/4 in dresses, and XS/S in tops. It sounds small, but I have a LOT of body fat. I just want to be comfortable in a bikini!

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

When I started in September, I was a solid 18, sometimes 20 in pants and dresses, or an XL/XXL for tops. Now I am a 14 in most pants and dresses, and L/XL (mostly L, depends on the material) in tops. I am still quite busty, wearing a 36G/I bra size, so I doubt my tops will get much smaller without a lot more lost pounds.

At the beginning of college, I weighed 165, and that, on my frame, translated to an 8-10 in pants and dresses and M/L tops. My initial goal is to get back to that weight, but I may re-evaluate then. I was smaller in high school and wore much smaller clothes, but in high school I was often told I was TOO skinny (120 pounds on a 5'10" frame) as well, so I'll have to see.

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

I started at 20/22, am now at 18 (16 on good days, I mean reallyreallyreally good days!) and my realistic goal is 10/12. My super-crazy goal is 8.

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

My largest, at my largest, was a 28. Right now, after 60-70 lbs lost, I'm "down" to a size 20-22. So three to four sizes.

When I was practically (for me) anorexic in college, I weighed 132 (I'm 5'6") and was the "brick house" 36-24-36.

But I'd totally settle for 38-26-38.

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

When I started this way of life, I was a size 24. October, 2009.
Just bought a pair of 20 jeans this past weekend.
I've never been smaller than a size 14 since grade school.
My goal is to go all the way and maintain.
Whatever that size lands me, I'll be grateful.

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

I'm a 16 and I will be thrilled to be a 10 - if I get smaller than that, I'll be estatic!

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

At my heaviest, I wore 3x casual shirts most of the time, and some of those were a little grabby from time to time but mostly fit well. I was buying 48" waist pants, and if it was a really cheap brand of something like work jeans that were cut smaller than those at the "big" store, a few pairs of 50s even.

I am currently wearing mostly 2x shirts very comfortably, some that are cut differently are too big at that size, and a few XL shirts fit just fine. I was getting made fun of for baggy pants at work recently when I was wearing 46s regularly, so put on some 44s and still got a saggy pants comment. 42s seem a little snug in the waist to me still, but I also have no tolerance for tight clothes - I want to be comfortable. The 44s and 42s definitely do fit better in the legs and seat at this point, though.

I set my goal weight based solely on what I think it will take to get to about a 36" waist in pants/jeans. My goal weight may change as I get closer to that size. A 36" waist would be perfectly sufficient for me and allow me to buy pants in about any regular store and avoid the "big" stores with their limited choices and high prices. I will probably wear large shirts or maybe xl depending on cut at that point, but I am guessing. I have a very large frame, so I have no current aspirations or desire to reach something like a 32 inch waist or a medium shirt - I think I would look fairly emaciated at that size. Most folks underguess my weight by 50 pounds or more - I like to think it is muscle, but is likely just big dense bones, LOL! Who knows though... once I get to a 36 inch stomach, I might decide 34 would be perfectly attainable and look better. Honestly, it has been too long since I was close to that size to even know, so it's all a guess right now. I might be perfectly happy with a 38" waist. Lots of changes happen to a body over a couple decades.

Re: What size are you? Whats your goal size?

I am a size 16/18

My goal is to be a size 12 which I only ever was in primary school. Ive always been chubby so not actually sure what Im capable of achieving in weight loss. I desperately hope I can lose weight, Im tired of hiding in my room and not living... Im so incredibly sad, turning 30 next month and never been in love...
I guess you need to love yourself before anyone else will love you. Fingers crossed!
