^ true. I'm a size 20 in GAP and a size 16 in most super market sizes. I feel that GAP is more true to actual size though.

UnsuspectedItem · 16/02/2018 15:53

The highest I got was 14 stone, I was a size 14-16 and 5 foot 8.

nippey · 16/02/2018 19:52

When I was 16.3 stone I was a 16 in most shops. I’m 5ft 5in, it’s so odd how it differs!

JaceLancs · 16/02/2018 19:56

I was an 18-20 at 16 stone
I’ve lost 4 stone so far and am 12-14
Want to lose another 2-5 stone which will hopefully make me a size 10

Storminateapot · 16/02/2018 19:58

I have been. I was 20 top and 18 bottom, my top has always been a size bigger than my bottom. I have slim hips & legs but am then like a box on sticks.

RedPandaMama · 16/02/2018 19:59

5'8 and was 16 stone just after having baby and size 18, am now 15 stone and a 16 in jeans again, bigger in tops as my boobs have swelled to a 34J with BFing Blush
Ive been 12 stone and was a size 14 and looked slim then, I want to get to that again.

murmuration · 16/02/2018 19:59

At 16 stone I was size 22/24. (5'4" ). 10 stone now and size 16.

sallyandherarmy · 16/02/2018 20:03

16st 2lb.

5ft 6"

Size 22 top (broad shoulders from swimming at international level and weight going on to my boobs....)

Size 16/18 bottom.

Also low carbing - I now hardly do any exercise so don't need so many carbs. Seems to be paying off, losing an average of 2-3lb a week :)

Storminateapot · 16/02/2018 20:03

I'm 5' 7 btw

Oldraver · 16/02/2018 20:06

I'm also surprised at the variation.. I've never been 16 stone...probably 14 1/2 and a size 20/22.

Currently size 16 and under 12 stone

demirose87 · 16/02/2018 20:06

Was 15.9 at my biggest and 14-16. Lost 1.7 stone and still the same size 😣

demirose87 · 16/02/2018 20:09

For some reason, I've always been smallish sizes for my weight and I've never looked my size. I'm a size 10 at 11 stone.

Beerwench · 16/02/2018 20:12

16 stone, 5ft8ins and size 20/22.

Lettucepray · 16/02/2018 20:12

Size 10 but only 5ft 2 inches. 9 stone ish.......look bigger because I am so small.

Threeminis · 16/02/2018 20:14

I'm 15stone 5 foot 7

Usually sway between 14-16

makeminealargeone22 · 16/02/2018 20:31

I am 5’7” and I weigh 15 stones 7lbs. My dress size is 26/28

Tiddlywinks63 · 16/02/2018 20:40

I think it depends on boob size. I can be a 16 top at 11st.7 ( I'm 5'6") and an 18 at 12 st.5. At 16st I imagine I'd be a 20/22 as weight gain turns me into an even bigger apple shape++ 😳
It also depends on where I buy clothes - I can be anything from a 12 to a 18 at 11st!

A580Hojas · 16/02/2018 20:54

Why would you post on this thread if you are 9 stone and a size 10? What is the point of that?

Lettucepray · 16/02/2018 21:01

Is that aimed at me??? Because being a size 16 or weighing a certain amount doesn't always mean big. There is a lot of variation. I consider myself to be a stone overweight for my frame and height. Okay???

SmiledWithTheRisingSun · 16/02/2018 21:07

Wow this thread is really interesting.
I have been 11 stone and a size 14.
Am now 14 stone and a size 18.
Am 5ft8.
Just goes to show you how different we all are. You really should not compare!
Good luck with the weight loss op! Smile

JennyOnAPlate · 16/02/2018 21:15

Size 18 at 5ft 7.

Purplerain101 · 16/02/2018 21:57

Think it all depends on things like bust size or where you carry your fat (I carry mine all on my hips and thighs so even when I was a size 8 on top I still had to wear a size 12 on bottom. My mum carries all of hers around her boobs and stomach so she has to wear a size 18 on top and a 12 on bottom)

bridgetreilly · 16/02/2018 22:48

5'4: size 18

But the question has nothing to do with whether you are 'big' or not. It's about a particular weight and dress size, which are nowhere near yours.

isittheholidaysyet · 16/02/2018 22:51

At 14 stone 10, I was an 18-20 on bottoms, and 18 on top.
