I am very curious about this.. because l read that some women who are the same height and weight as me.. say they are a much smaller dress size.. l know different stores etc vary ..
I am 5ft 7 ..l was 20 stone last year and a size 28.. ( l do have large breasts) l have lost 5 stone (15 st) and now a size 20.. but l keep seeing on the net in mounjaro groups etc .. that people of my height and weight are saying they are a size 16...
When l was younger l was always around 9st to 9 and half and size 12...only put a stone on with both daughters and soon lost it.
Age 38 had a total hysterectomy and went to 12 stone size 14 and stayed there for years until my accident and broke both hips and pelvis 12 years ago and the weight went on and on.
With mounjaro ive lost 5 stone and can now have my new hip. I'm age 67 ( well will be this Friday) .

5'10", 16st6, and a size 20.

Up until about two years ago, I was 14st and a comfortable size 16. A very stressful couple of years, and a massive decline in my mental health, have seen me eat my way up the scales!

It definitely varies so much. I’m the same height but a 14 at 14 stone and 18 at 18 stone

Meteorite87 · 27/11/2025 08:46

RosemaryandTruffle · 27/11/2025 08:48

5'7", just under 9 stones, size 10. Always have been.

Goatblu · 27/11/2025 08:49

5'8 and 73kg. Size 12, sometimes 14 depending on style/shop.

AllTheChaos · 27/11/2025 08:51

5’2”. 6.5 stone. Size 4. No bum or boobs.
Pre-illness was 12 stone, size 16, with magnificent bum and boobage!

CoffeeCakeAndALattePlease · 27/11/2025 08:53

5’6” and also on Mounjaro.

started at 20st 6lb and size 22.

currently 15st 8lb and size 20.

im shocked I’ve only gone down 1 size despite losing almost 5st now! But it’s a little bit off all over rather than a huge noticeable amount off one area. People are just starting to notice a change.

I guess a lot is where it sits on your body as well as how much muscle you have etc.

troppibambini6 · 27/11/2025 08:53

5”7 9 stone 13. I’m a size 10 with 32ff boobs.
I recently lost 4.5 stone in mounjaro.

That accident sounds dreadful, OP Flowers

171cm (5ft 7ins)
69kg (10st 12lbs)

Size 16-18 usually, but I've got some 14s and even a few size 12s 😳

My real size is 20-22. I have to order 20s from La Redoute.

I do wish UK retailers would standardise their sizing!

This one I find mad - 5”7, under 11 stone and a 16/18?!

for context I’m 5”7, 10 stone 3, H-cup and a 10/12!

IAmNotSureAboutYouNow · 27/11/2025 08:55

5”8
10 stone 9
size 10

Lift weights so have some muscle

Neverplayleapfrogwithmrpipes · 27/11/2025 08:55

I am 5ft 1 and 8st 8lb
I am between an 8 and a 10.
zara is very hit or miss size wise for me!

I was 15st two years ago and was a 16-18 (probably realistically an 18 but everything I wore was stretchy)

MrsMariaReynolds · 27/11/2025 09:02

These threads are fascinating and also reinforces my sheer bafflement of bodies and sizes. I"m another MJ user, down to 11st9 (I'm 5'5") from 15st5 but still easily fitting in my old size 20 jeans. I still have a massive belly and lipodema on my legs. Even in my teens I was never lower than a 14/16.

whiteblossoms · 27/11/2025 09:03

I am 169cm, 58kg and size 8

Hellinnnnn · 27/11/2025 09:05

5’6”, 81kg broadly a size 16-18 but it depends where from and what it is. Post menopause my waist has thickened in the most hideous way so I’m an M&S 16 but suddenly a Cos 44 is straining at the buttons, but I still have some size 14 stuff that fits. Don’t much like this size and shape and am finding it difficult to revert to the 70kg version of myself that fitted size 14 clothes from more honest shops than M&S!

applecharlotte · 27/11/2025 09:07

5ft 6 - 147lbs and a size 12 sometimes 14 as have big boobs and hips.

PInkyStarfish · 27/11/2025 09:07

@ItsFridayIminLoveJS you can compare how you look with other women who have the same height and weight as you -

I am 5’8”, eight and a half stone and wear all sizes of clothes depending on fit but usually an 8 or occasionally a 10.

5ft9, 12st 10. I'm quite small up top, about a size 12, but I have enormous thighs and hips so I'm a 16 or 18 on the bottom. Clothes shopping is a miserable experience for me as nothing ever fits. I have 2 pairs of trousers and 1 dress that I have to wear on rotation.

Theroomwhereithappens · 27/11/2025 09:08

5'5, just under 11 stone. Anything between a 10 and a 14.

lynnebenfieldshandbag · 27/11/2025 09:08

5’4”, weigh 9 stone 3lbs. Size 10.

maddiemookins16mum · 27/11/2025 09:14

5ft 4, 10 stone 12, I can wear 12/14 jeans and a 14 top - but I’m big up top so sometimes a 16 top depending on the shop.
