What clothes size are you and are you happy with that or what clothes size do you want to be?
I'm just nosey Laughing

When not pregnant, I'm a curvy (read as completely untoned) size 12-14. I have gone up to a big 14 with a few size 16 clothes in the past but tried to get back down. I'm fairly short 5ft 3" so weight really shows on me. Ideally I would love to be a size 8 but I've never really been slim, was always a bit chubby at school so I don't see an 8 as realistic and would worry about flabby skin, especially after babies. I think for me the perfect size would be a toned size 10. I'm hoping once this little one is born I can finally get to my goal. Like I said I've always been chubby and have felt like a whale next to my petite friends and it's really knocked my confidence so for once I would love to be able to buy skinny clothes and feel pretty.

i am a horrendous 18 - 16 atm, the smallest i ever was was a comfortable size 12 but really 12-14 i am aright and quite happy these days. i no longer really pine after the thought of being a size 10 or anything because i know for me is totally unrealistic!

i am 5ft 6' and a size 6-8 and while i love being able to wear a 6, i'd like to be a 'smaller' 6(more toned, and less bodyfat!) so if i could get to a 4(do they even make size 4?? lol) i'd be happier

I think a size 10 would be perfect for me. im a 12 just now but heading in the direction of a small 12 with some 10's fitting me (especially tops + dresses) I will be happy when im in size 10 jeans. that is my aim.

I am a size 10 in bottoms but they are becoming a bit tight Sizes 270211 .

I have a mix tho, i have two pairs of size 12 jeans from new look which fit perfect. I think some shops are different.



I feel like i have put on a bit of pounds over the last month anyway so The first monday in september (after holiday) i am going on a bit of a diet. I need to tone a bit so i can feel more comfortable in my sizes 10s.



I am 5'2

I'm not really that bothered about what size I am, as long as I'm comfy, feel good and think I look alright. I'm the fat end of 16 just now, but I'd happily be the smaller end of 16. I'll aim for a 14 (on top anyway) as I liked myself better then, but I have inherited the "Kidd" bum from my mother's side so I will probably never be smaller than a small 16 on the bottom Rolling Eyes Laughing

I managed to be falling out of size 14 stuff at christmas but by jan/feb ( after finishing bf in december) I went back up to a 14 but I am now a size 12 for tops.

Guess that wont last long now though.... LOL

But all being well, when I have had little one, i would like to get to a comfortabel sze twelve all over and I think i would be happy at that.

At the start of my first pregnancy I was 11st 7 and this pregnancy am starting at 10st 7 so hoping will be easy to drop down after. We shall see,

I am 5' 5.5''

i really big at the mo, but have been everything from a 10 to a 22.......currently 22 Shocked



I am 5ft 2in, but the size I am happiest 'in', is a 14-16



I found a 10 too small for me, and the battle just meant I didnt enjoy life.....but when im a 16 ish, I get curves in all the right places and feel sexy!!



Right now im out of hand and need a good slap!!

I'm a size 8 in most things, sometimes a 10 cos my boobs won't squeeze into certain things!



I put on a pair of size 6 petite pants the other day that jut about fit, ideally i'd like to fit into those comfortably again and i'll be happy Smile

I am a loose size 14 bottoms, sometimes a 12 in generous shops! I usually have a 14 top but struggle sometimes with fitting boobs in. Before i had Lily i was a 10/12 bottom and a 12 sometimes 14 top. This was about right for me as i have been thinner and it didnt suit me at all x

I'm a size 12 bottom and top I am a 10 but with some blouses I have to get a 12 as they pull a bit on the bust. I need to tone up big time so I'm hoping the zumba and walking that I'm doing is gonna help xx

It's surprising, but nice to see how many are happy with sizes 10-14. I think thats healthy. All my friends are size 8s and constantly talking about how fat they are and how they should be a size smaller, it's hard to be around.

Im prob a 16 atm if I wasnt pg. Im 5ft 8 almost. The smallest I have been is a comfy 12 and I felt good then, ideally id like to get back to that at some point next year. I honestly dont think I could ever physically be an 8. My mum is 5ft 3 and smaller frame than me but was nearly anorexic as a teen, her periods stopped at one point it was so bad, but she was still a size 10 at about 8stone. Iv seen pictures of her and if she had gotten to an 8 she would have looked awful. In saying that im sure clothes sizes have got bigger since then? Eg she may actually have been an 8 by todays standards, who knows!

I'm probably a 16-18 and hate it... but after I had Tyler I just binged on whatever I could (I ate quite well during pregnancy so felt like I hadn't "taken advantage" of being able to eat what I wanted)



when I got pg this time around I was the same weight as I was when 9 months pg with Tyler Shocked



Before I was pg with Tyler I was slimming down and could wear some size 12 tops I don't think I could get smaller as my boobs and hips are quite big I think it woud look wrong.



If I could get to a 14 bottom I'd be happy - not sure I could ever fit into a size 12 but I guess 12 overall would be my ideal.

i do think that size 8 just isn't for everyone, when i was a 12 i was really careful about what i ate and walked everywhere but to get smaller than that i would have been truly miserable - i just don't think it's for me at all (and now im aaaaancient im totally fine with it Laughing)

12-14 is below average i think, i think 14-16 is average now, and tbh so long as your bmi isn't really high (mine is at 5ft5 Embarassed) i genuinly believe that its nice to have some curves!

At the moment I'm a 14 and I HATE it, I feel fat and frumpy.



The smallest I've been was smaller than a size 6 (had to 11/12 yr old clothing), and if I'm honest I was really miserable, hardly ate anything and if I did I would take laxatives to 'get rid' of it.



I think I was at my best just before I had Libby, I was an 8/10 and eating more healthily, used to walk loads to and from work and with the dog.



My plan is to walk Libby to and from preschool and start eating better in a couple of weeks so hopefully I'll lose some weight, my ultimate dream would be to be 8 stone which would make me a size 8/10 again.

Before children I was an 8/small 10, after Aimee I went back down to a 10. Then I got pregnant with Lily, and then got pregnant quite quickly this time, so I havent really had a chance for my size to get back to normal.



I am planning on getting back to 9st and toning up when the baby is here and hoping to be a toned 10. I will be very happy with that.

I'm a size 12 always have been. I was a 10 in my clubbing days but that was down to a very poor lifestyle.
I'm totally happy with my weight/size. I'm am 5ft 3 with very big hips but a slim waist. At the mo i could probably fit in a 10 but its getting them past the hips Rolling Eyes
When pg i went up to a 16 but lost that rather quickly when he was born, a bit too quick cos i got the stretch marks to prove it Sad
