5"6' & 175 lbs - What size are you?


Quote  |  Reply

I have lost a total of 47 pounds so far this year and am getting close to my first goal weight, 178.  I was wondering if anyone else who had similar stats would be willing to share.

SW:  226 - Size 18

CW: 179 - Size 12 (sometimes 10 depending on the manufacturer)

GW: I think that 156 is a good number.  I think I would be close to a size 6/8 then, but not sure.  I have a rather large frame.  I would be interested to know your size and goal weight if you are interested in sharing.

Thanks for the info!

I am 5'6'' and weigh around 155 but I am still a size 10. I have been trying to lose weight and did. I was 162 this summer but was a 10 then too! just a little snug haha. However, I can notice a difference and its not that much weight. So I am thinking 140something will get me down to a size 8. But I have larger hips so you may be able to get down to a 6 or 8! Good luck!

I also am 5'6 and am 156 right now. Im a size 8/10 depending on the manufacturer. I am trying to get down to around 136-140 and hopefully be somewhere in the 4/6 size group (I have a smaller frame, just carry all my weight in my midsection!!)

You've done great so far! Keep up the good work!!

I am 5'6 at 173 and size 16 STILL.  Down 25lbs and still the same size-jeans do fit a little big could probably go to size 13/14 but I'm not buying again until size 10!!!!  HA HA

My goal is 140 probably size 8 but we'll see

I'm 5'6 and from 186- 170s I was a 12/14...at 161 I am still a 12 or a 10/12. I'm a 13 in Levi's Juniors. It really depends on where you shop.  I have  large frame and am aiming for 150...even then I will probably still be an 8/10.

I'm 5'6" and my heaviest was 175. When I was that weight I was a 16 pants from Old navy, and a 12 pants at Target. Now I am down to 152 (my final GW is 130) and I am a 6 at Target and an 6/8 in higher end (Lucky brand) pants.

Well I am just getting started.  I am 5'6" and I weight 162 (as of Monday).  All my weight is in my tummy area.  I am currently wearing a size 12 because of the waist.  My GW is around 140 and I'd love to be in a size 6/8 again. 

Thanks so much for all of the information everyone.  I am so excited to complete my journey and hit my goal weight of 156.  I appreciate your support!
