I'm in a 44 top and size 20 pants right now. I know I'm telling more here than I've ever done. My goal is to be in a size 14 and be able to wear it comfortably.
How about you?

How about you? debbiepete 09-10-2002, 05:21 PM Well I wear a size 12 on top and an 7/8 on the bottom, I would love to get back in my 5s but I doubt that will ever happen sixfreds 09-10-2002, 05:46 PM Depending on the style and/or cut of the clothes I am either a 8 or 10 I would like to be back to a 5 or 3... Eileen ~Sherry~ 09-10-2002, 05:57 PM I'm a 16 right now... 9/10 would be fine with me. :) crdurham 09-10-2002, 11:52 PM I'm 13 right now.....would like to be 7/8.... blueknitter 09-11-2002, 12:32 PM I'd like to get to a 10/12. Right now I'm in 18/20 bottoms and 16/18 tops. I have no illusions about ever wearing "fashionable" clothes again, I just want to be able to find things on the clearance racks in my size. ;) simplemom 09-11-2002, 01:20 PM I'm size 20. I'd like to be size 14 or 12...:D mtjsmom 09-11-2002, 01:33 PM well..i just came down to a size 12ish..i was 16 forever after i had my daughter 2 yrs ago..it took forever to come off..i would like to be about a 10.. PennyPincher 09-11-2002, 07:50 PM The smallest I remeber being is a size 14, right now I am in a 12/14 with still 40 lbs left to loose, I would be happy with any size, I just want to get rid of the kangaroo pouch captclearance 09-12-2002, 07:45 PM I am too old and have had too many children to think I will ever be what I once was, I would like to be healthy and be in about a 14, I am 18 -20 now....... doodlebug 09-13-2002, 09:43 PM I'd like to get down to a 14, right now I'm a 20/22. kcjulesus 09-13-2002, 11:30 PM Well I'm an 18 and would love to get down to my pre-pregnancy size 7! But to be realistic I'd like to be between 12 and 14! MJsLady 11-17-2002, 12:28 AM well before kids I was a 2. Now I am a 24. My goal is to get to around 110-120 and a size 8 (or what ever size i fit in at that weight, when I was a 2 I weighed 92, and at 4 mos pg i was a 6 and weighed 95) Sara Noel 11-17-2002, 02:31 PM I have a few more weeks and then I am a dieting diva. LOL I was always pretty thin until my late 20's when I decided I would not put somuch energy into my appearance. Then I struggled with my metabolism for a few yrs. Bouncing between a size 12-16. (I'm 5'8") Size 12 was ok and I felt better about myself. (not thin, but not chunky) I met Gabe at about a size 14 and felt chubby. After giving birth to Zachary I was a 16 for about a year and then back down to a 14. This pregnancy I am so huuuuuge that I think after the baby is born I might be lucky to get into an 18. I kid you not. I will be focusing on raising my metabolism because I had a medical reason I was unable to exercise this pregnancy and once I deliver and get the green light, I am so getting this body into action. LOL Ideally, I'd like to be a 10 again, but it's been a lot of yrs now, so a 12 is realistic. I have no desire to be as thin as I once was. I just want to be fit and healthy and feel good about myself. Come January, I plan to start an entire fitness and live for life lifestyle club for us all here. It will be a yearly plan with long term and short term goal planning. Hopefully, we can encourage each other and reach some of these goals. Sara SewCrafty 11-17-2002, 03:17 PM Sara, I would love that! I need all the encouragement I can get. I got lots of videos, but can't seem to get past day 2! I am short (5'2") and also short waisted, so right now I look like a pear! I was very comfortable at 125-130, but the last time I got on the scale I weighed 163. I am in a 14T or a 16L, these are my sisters' sizes. 14T = 14 tight and 16L = 16 loose. The odd number sizes don't fit me right (i.e. 15/16) so at the moment nothing fits well. Except my sweats! :D Rhonda 11-17-2002, 05:28 PM Before my surgery in June, I was a 22/24. Now I am into a size 16 petite. I should still lose a little more weight and hopefully get into at least a 10/12. That would be about where I was when I got married and would be soooo great! mylittle4 11-17-2002, 06:20 PM I am a 24 and I am pretty happy with myself. I guess a realistic goal for me would be an 18, but I have not been able to keep off any weight that I loose so I am pretty tired of fighting a loosing battle. Trurthfully I would love to be out of plus size clothes just so I would have better luck at rummage sales and clearance racks for myself. How frugal is that!! Leiloni77 11-18-2002, 10:27 PM I am currently a 18, I was the most happy at a 9/10. I am short, but I have a mesomorphic body type. I am muscular, but I gain weight easy. I would like to weigh between 135-140 so I have got my work cut out for me... what a good question to ask! i.m.cheap 11-18-2002, 11:52 PM I am a size 18, and would like to be a 12 or 14. I don't have the right frame to ever be "tiny". never2late2bfrugal 11-19-2002, 12:49 AM I am another size 18 dreaming of being a 12! I plan to do the "loose weight/get healthy" thing starting the new year. Count me in for the club!! ida Darlene 11-19-2002, 09:13 AM Wear size 16 on a good day.:toothy: Would love to be in a 12-14 and weigh 140-150lbs. To weigh less than that I 'd have to starve myself & I enjoy food too much to do that.:D COUNTRYBUMPKIN 12-09-2002, 10:25 AM I would like to get back to a 9/10 but honestly I don't think my body is made for that anymore. I wear a 12 on bottom and 12/14 on top. wiseone418 12-09-2002, 09:14 PM Originally posted by i.m.cheap I am a size 18, and would like to be a 12 or 14. I don't have the right frame to ever be "tiny". im with ya but im a 16 right now....a 12 would be wonderful....i know exactly how you feel with the frame Phaedrae 12-09-2002, 10:24 PM I am a 18/20 on top and a 20/22 on bottom. I would love to get back to a 14. Labontet 12-27-2002, 11:20 PM A size 10 would be very, very nice! mom2matty 12-28-2002, 12:00 AM I was a size 2 before kids but like a lot of you I don't think that is realistic for me any more!!!!! I would like to be a 5/7 though!! CountryMom 12-28-2002, 10:10 AM I would love to be a size 8, but right now I would settle for being a size 12. Tater 12-29-2002, 06:18 PM I'm a 14 now and I want to be a size 8 again. I was a size 8 three years ago, so I know I can be again!! judith 12-29-2002, 08:56 PM I'm in an 18/20 right now. Haven't ever been below a size 14, since i got out of the little girls' deparment at age 13, and after 2 kids and 8 major falls on my rear/back, my hips have spread a bit {carrying an 8 lb complete breech around for 4 months did wonders too, I'm sure} so I don't know if I'll ever be below that size.. DH is always pointing out those frilly, lacey-next-to-not-there things at the store, and I tell him 'maybe your next wife will be that small.." but I hold a 14 up against a 20, and I think h###, that's a big change in and of itself, why stress anything lower? If I do get lower, great. If not, I've come a heck of a long way.. {though I do have a pair of 36/30 doe-brown Wrangler Boot Cut jeans hanging in my closet that I wore pre-#2..... Leta 12-29-2002, 09:45 PM I am a size 12 right now and I would like to get back down to a size 8. aylasmommy 12-29-2002, 10:11 PM ok sizes REALLY confuse me lately because of what i have that fits and what doesn't etc..like I have a size 7 pair of jeans i can't button, but yet I am wearing a size 3 that is loose..and a pair of size ones I can zip up but yet they are hard to walk in .. so, i'm not sure what actual size I really am, but I'd love to fit in those jeans that are size 7 and size 1 ..I guess I yoyo a lot since I used to fit in those size 7's quite nicely two months ago.. argh i hate sizes mgory29379 12-29-2002, 10:29 PM I am an 18 but would love to be in a ten again but would be VERY happy with a 12. I am very short so you can guess how much I weigh to be in a size 18. I will start Jan. 2 frugalmel 12-29-2002, 10:54 PM I am a twelve now and would love to fit in a pair of 8s I have...realistically, I just want back in my 9/10s comfortably! I really want to shape up and tone up! Kate117 12-30-2002, 05:06 AM I am a size 20 right now I would love to be back to a 14 or 12. I am just not meant to be a really skinny person. Mom23boys 12-30-2002, 11:10 AM I wear a size 8 or 10 right now. I guess it depends on the brand. I want to get back in my 6's comfortably! I used to wear a size 3 a long time ago....after DS#2. After DS#3 I wore a size 6...which was ok. I found myself being less motivated and gaining a few pounds here and there. cinnamon 12-31-2002, 03:14 PM Size 10 would be my ultimate goal - 12 might be a bit more realistic. I gave away two pairs of my size 16 jeans last week. :yippee: scooby 12-31-2002, 03:27 PM I am 5'8" and am a 20-22 top and a 18-20 bottom. 11 years ago I was a 9/10 but I will be very happy to be a 14 |
