Okay, here goes:
gender: Female
age: 29 (30 in 11 days!!)
height: 5'5"
weight: 239 (yes, I said 239)
and clothing size (or sizes) Well, this is a finicky one. Tops, I wear large or extra large - typically size 12/14 to 16/18 (I wear a 38D bra) Jackets, I wear no larger than an 18, and my winter coat is actually 14/16. My waist is 35".
Bottoms are the worst since I am a pear and have larger legs, but I wear anywhere between an 18 and 20, depending if they have lycra or not - always hip huggers, and always boot cuts.
(Sweats and the like, I take a size XL - XXL, 14/16 or 18/20)
I can't stand how fat (and old lady-ish) tapered pants make me look, therefore, I haven't worn them in 7 years, LOL! I find with my body type, hip huggers and boot cuts make me look a LOT slimmer.
I understand these numbers look strange to you all who wear sizes close to mine and weigh a lot less than me, but I have small bones and I will almost definitely be about a size 4 when I get to goal. I was a size 8/9 at 180 pounds before.
Sooo, I still have a lot of sizes to go.
