I'm about 9 1/2 stone size 8 bottoms and 10 top thanks to 30G boobs

Lolly86 · 24/08/2016 07:22

5ft8
15st
Size 16 generally sometimes bigger on top due to boobs

Fairylea · 24/08/2016 07:26

5ft 7 and 12st 4, usually a size 16 sometimes a 14.

5'7" 9st 9lb
Size 10 top (32B Sad)
Size 12 bottom

Surprised that some one at 10st is a size 8

NicknameUsed · 24/08/2016 07:43

Athrawes I assume you are not in the UK? We still tend to think of weights and measures in imperial measurement. And don't get me started on people talking about their weight in pounds only. I have to stop and work out how many stones it is.

onlyconnect · 24/08/2016 07:46

I'm 5 feet 7.5 and 12 st 9, size 14 at the moment. I like to be 11 stones and a really comfortable 12. It's interesting how some people are much bigger sizes than others at the same weight.

coppergrey · 24/08/2016 08:06

5ft7, 10st 11lb ish (when not pregnant!)

I'm a pretty even 12 all over.

Aliveinwanderland · 24/08/2016 08:09

5ft 7
Usually between 8 and 8 1/2 stone. Size 8.

31 weeks pregnant at the minute so 9 stone 10 now.

SpaceDinosaur · 24/08/2016 08:11

5ft 71/2
Size 12/14 depending on shop
10st 10... When I'm not pregnant.
Oh and I have a 34G bust. Which is ENORMOUS!!!

Out of interest, what's people's shoe size? I'm an 8 Grin

jenniuol · 24/08/2016 08:28

5ft 8ish, around 9st 4 give or take a lb. Size 10 bottom, 8 top usually. No boobs to speak of Hmm shoe size 6.

Trills · 24/08/2016 08:30

These threads always show how variable size and weight can be.

12 stone something.
Clothes I have worn this week have ranged from 10 - 14.
Mostly I buy 12s.
Size 41 feet. (7 or 8 depending on shop)

OjosCansados · 24/08/2016 08:35

5 ft 9
8 st 10
Size 8

PanGalacticGargleBlaster · 24/08/2016 08:39

5'7
Just under 13st
Size 14-16

170cm
87kg ish

specialsubject · 24/08/2016 10:09

11 stone 10, another 3lb off would be good.

Wardrobe contains sizes 12 to 16 which all fit - depends where you shop and when, no standards at all. We are all supposed to just love spending ages trying on clothes . sod that.

bluebellation · 24/08/2016 10:15

I'm 5'7" and currently 10st7lbs, which is more than I've ever been. I'm happier at around 10 st, which puts me at a comfortable size 12. At the moment I'm veering into size 14 territory. Though obviously it depends on the brand, I do have a couple of size 10 tops - never been a size 10 bottom!

Oh, and size 7 shoes.

1moreglassplease · 24/08/2016 10:16

5' 7" (and a half)
11 and a half stone
36B (but more back than front!)
12 top half and 12/14 bottom half (joined a gym and lost weight but currently between sizes on bottom half)

Thefitfatty · 24/08/2016 10:16

What I wonder is how many people are being honest about their sizes. Who fits in only one size in all stores? I range from 8 to 16 depending on the cut. I can go from xs to xl. :/ In the same store! There's no rhyme or reason!

LuciaInFurs · 24/08/2016 10:17

5 foot 8 1/2
14 stone 8ish
Size 14
36GG
And size 11 feet! (I maintain that this is why I am so heavy)

Joinourclub · 24/08/2016 10:46

140 pounds and size 10/12 3 months post partum. Wanting to lose another half a stone once I stop breast feeding. Pre kids I was under 9 stone and size 8, but can't see me ever getting back to that.

HawkingsMead · 24/08/2016 10:50

5' 7" (and a half!)
10 stone
Size 8 to 10

But I have broad shoulder/narrow hips so tend to be 10 on top.

SirVixofVixHall · 24/08/2016 10:50

11 stone five ish? But I was eight stone 3 pre babies/thyroid problem. I gained a bit with each baby but have put on a ton of weight recently with grief-eating and stress due to dealing with the death of my mother. I would be happy to be under nine and a half. I'm a 12/14 now, but should be a 10 at the absolute largest as I have a really small frame. (28H bra).

BadToTheBone · 24/08/2016 11:01

5'7", 13st, size 16/18

toofarfromcivilisation · 24/08/2016 11:05

5'8. 10 stone 2ish. 12-14 & even buy 16 tops so they don't show my tummy. I'd say 12 trousers, 14 dresses & 16 tops. No nasty surprises then!
