12 stone, size 12 bum and 16 top (34jj bazonkas)

At my lightest, 10 stone 3, I was an 8 bum and 12-14 top, wearing 32J bras.

Aiming for 11 stone as that is where I look and feel the best!

I'm 10st 6 and a size 12 in normal shops. GAP I take a size 10 in jeans though!

WhereIsMyHat · 07/11/2013 13:00

Always around 10 stone and I wear a size 10 or 12.

5 ft 6 and weight 7 st 9....not good and am trying so hard to put weight back on.

Shows how little weight means when it comes to clothes sizes!

I'm 5'6 and a half.

Weigh 11 stone 3lbs after putting on a stone at the beginning of the year (trying to lose it). Still fit into my size 10 clothes and my waist is about 3 inches bigger than from when I was 8.5 stone a few years ago.

Think I'm just quite dense

Notonaschoolnight · 07/11/2013 13:13

Exact same height gone from 12st9 to 11st10 and now I've got to hold my hand up and say I'm a 14 and stop picking up the 16's

duckyfuzz · 07/11/2013 13:14

Mermi I'm dense too! 5'7, 11st 5 and size 12

MadeOfStarDust · 07/11/2013 13:18

5'7" and 15st 6 - size 20.... was an OLD size 16 when 12st7lb - that weight would make me a 14 nowadays... with size inflation....

LilyRose88 · 07/11/2013 13:19

I am 9 stone 11 and a size 10 on the bottom and a size 12 on the top.

SpookyRestingFace · 07/11/2013 13:39

I am 5'6", 9st and size 10-12.

MulberryHag · 07/11/2013 14:11

I'm that height and 8 stone, obviously more when pregnant. Lost my baby weight using the Dukan Diet which was amazing if I'm honest!! Size 8 on top (and dresses) and size 10 on the bottom.

I'm 5'7 and currently weigh 11 stone. I'm a 12-14. I used to weigh 10 stone and was much happier at that weight. I'm a healthy eater but really need to do more exercise!

SarahFx · 07/11/2013 15:26

I'm exactly that height and weigh 10st 9. I'm a size 12. I was verging on a 16 so more of a size 15 ha ha when I was 12st 8.

HootyMcOwlface · 07/11/2013 16:20

I'm 5ft 6.5 inches and I'm 11.5 stone. Oh god. I was about 10.5 stone pre-pregnancy Sad

HootyMcOwlface · 07/11/2013 16:22

Forgot to add, I'm a size 14 now.

PatoBanton · 07/11/2013 16:23

I'm about 5ft 6 3/4 and I weigh 9 stone.

I was 8 and a half before last pregnancy but am still BF so think somewhere in that is half a stone of milk Grin

PatoBanton · 07/11/2013 16:24

and am roughly a 10. sometimes 8, sometimes 12 depending on shop.

kobacat · 07/11/2013 16:42

10.5 stone and I've dropped to a 10 bottom half, 12 top half I suspect because I'm horseriding a lot and that's building muscle. Not that you'd know it to look at my midsection that never seems to bloody change.

kobacat · 07/11/2013 16:44

For context, when I was 11 stone (which I don't think is overweight, but it was hormonal weight gain from my old implant and I carried it badly) I was a 14. My shape's totally changed in a way that doesn't reflect my actual weight loss, which just goes to show how silly BMI is.

Guiltismymaster · 07/11/2013 16:45

I am exactly that tall and my normal, natural weight fluctuates around 9st - size 8- 10 (depending on where you shop!). I'm lucky, but I do exercise too.
Post baby I was in size 12 jeans for a while, don't know how heavy.

Unfortunately I'm now (unintentionally!) underweight at around 8st Sad - make sure you keep well above that level! I don't look good.

Rosencrantz · 07/11/2013 16:47

Thats my exact height, and I weigh bang on 9 stone. I'm an 8, though a bit chunky on the thighs. Could do with toning up!

PatoBanton · 07/11/2013 16:48

I was about 6st when I was very anorexic, it can't have been easy to look at me at all. At the time it didn't seem that bad.

lifesgreatquestions · 07/11/2013 16:51

I'm 5'7" and 12.5 stone. I'm a size 14 on the bottom, 12 on the top.
