Like the title says, curious to know.
Even more curious as I always thought I was 5 ft 7 but was measured last week an am in fact 5 ft 8.
Anyways I weigh 14st 6lb and am at the larger end of size 16.
Starting from now I want to lose 2 stone before year end.
Curious to know what size I could be then roughly. Hopefully a loose fitting 14 on her way to a 12.

Well I won't ever be a size 10 but my aim it to get to a size 12.
Going to bed motivated so hope I wake up with the same motivation,

5ft 8, 13st 2 at the minute but gave birth 3.5 weeks ago and been immobile due to SPD since Jan. Was 11st 9 pre pregnancy (fat as was just back from holiday and had running injury) usually 10st 7ish and will be trying my hardest to get back there!

I was a 12-14 top and 8 bottom at 10st 7, currently a 12-14 bottom and 16-18 top at 13st 2. I have big boobs and a wide back, would have to be very skinny to be less than a 12 on top! I can't recall being less than a 12 since I was a teenager.

Thanks all.
Interesting to see what others of same height weigh.
Am aiming to get somewhere between 10 St 7 and 11 St.
Have a ways to go though but will take it one pound at a time.

Unlike you OP I lost an inch instead of finding one :( After pregnancy I turned out to be 5ft 8, not the 5ft 9 I have been for years!

I float around the 11 stone mark. I carry about 8 of those around my stomach.

I am trying to get down to 9st 7lb which is what I was when I got married, but I've only just started dieting.

I pretend to myself I'm a size 12, but I'm more of a 13, if only it existed.
