I can't even aim for a size because I have never been slim as an adult. I am a smidge over 6ft 2" and around 21st now I think. I am about a size 20. Wore 2 size 18 dresses. Not size 18. Well my bottom isn't anyhow lol

Started off 28/30 on 12th April last year. So I am going in the right direction.

Size 14 feels impossible for me as I sit here. Can't even contemplate size 12 lol

With your model height size 16 is going to look slim! i'd love to be tall!

Aaww thanks Angee The smallest I have been as an adult was 16 in the top and 18 on the bottom. I was age 21 and 15st 8lbs. Had lost weight at SW. My shape has all changed now though. My body is smaller at a higher weight than it was back then. Unless clothes have changed a lot. Like when I was 20 and 19st 12lb I was size 22-24?? Strange lol

It all confuses me something terrible.

It was only in the latter end of my twenties I came to terms with my height. Now I at 30, I actually like it

I'm currently a 26/28 and weigh a little over 21 stone and am 5ft7

People don't think I'm as big as I am as I do carry it well.

I doubt I'll be a 12 but would love to be a 14/16 like I was when I was 18.

Apparently I have tiny ribs so should slim onto them well.

size 12 clothes will deffo be cheaper looking forward to getting into primark lol how sad is that !!!!!

Not sad at all hun, I can't wait for the day I can get into primark clothes lol x x

I've never been a size 12 so don't know what weight I'd need to get too. When I was in my late teens I was 11 1/2 stone and only just squeezed into a 14 on the bottom. I do think shops have changed their sizes though. Plus, as a nation and our lifestyles now body shapes have changed so shops have had to change their clothes sizings.

In fact, dress making pattern sizes are still set at the measurements for each size as it was set out in the 50's whereas ready to wear garments are at least 4" bigger with the same dress size.

I think sizes are getting bigger too, seven years ago I did lighter life and got down to 10 st 4lb and was a size 12/14 at 5'8", but this time I'm down to 14st 6lb and can get into size 16/18 whereas last time I was this weight I was more a size 18/20

I'm 12st 1.5lbs and 5ft 2. I bought Primark super skinny jeans in a 16 a few weeks ago so I'm heading off to get some in a 14. It all comes down to the shop you're buying from and the mood of the machinist the day they were sewn!!

I'm between sizes nothing fits my bottom half. My jeans are either too big or too small. I'm 5'6 16st9 and in-between a 20 & 18. Can't wait until I'm comfy in my 18s

That has cleared up my confusion for me. Thank you very much
