I’ll start... I’m 5’7, 10 st 3 and wear a size 10

This always intrigues me how different people are at the same weight!

@itssquidstella we are very similar, I am 35-26-39.5!

@FrostedSnowdrops maybe I should overcome my aversion to Next, then! I don't tend to wear dresses and skirts so haven't every really shopped in Hobbs. Agree that ASOS can be hit and miss; I've had some great stuff from there but recently bought a couple of pairs of trousers from their Tall range (size ten) which fit fine on the legs but were massive on the waist. I think an 8 would have been too small on the hips, though.

Currently wear a size 12uk. However my clothes are generally quite stretchy - jeans, t-shirt, gym gear.

I have always been heavier than Iook.

Gwen yes I'm an hourglass although these days (in my 40s) I lose weight off my boobs first and put it back on my hips first, so heading more towards a pear shape as everything heads south Hmm

5,5 10 stone. Size 10-12

5'4"
66kg
Size 12

I'm an apple shape with smallish boobs, slim legs/no bum and a round tummy which sometimes pushes me into a size 14.

TheGirlWhoLived · 11/03/2019 07:48

Mine makes no sense- I’m 14st 2, 5ft 3 and a comfortable size 14. 16’s are far too big and 12’s too tight

Hobbz · 11/03/2019 18:36

5'5'', 12 stone, size 14/16 (but wear a 12/14 in places like LK Bennett, Reiss, Hobbs - I tried on/bought items from all these places yesterday - bought two size 12 items. I guess the vanity sizing thing worked on me!)
Six months ago I was 16 st and a size 20. Hoping to be 9.5 - 10.5 st by the summer and a true size 12 (size 10 in the vanity places).

Have you weighed yourself recently? Because I reckon you have lost a significant amount of weight. I just can’t believe that at 5’3 and over 14 stone a 16 is “far too big for you”. Perhaps leg and arm length but not around the waist, surely?!

I'm 5'7", weigh 10s3 and I'm a size 8

TheGirlWhoLived · 17/03/2019 16:53

@mmmmbrekkie I weigh myself every day Grin at just over 15st I wasn’t fitting into my 14’s well at all - and was like a sausage bursting out of its skin. But really the 14’s are just right now. My zozo suit says my waist is 31inches- don’t know where that puts me Confused
