just thought i'd start a discussion on what size you wear at different weights.

Me- i'm 5'5

at 270 i was in sz. 24 and they were getting TIGHT and some i couldn't fit into

at 238 i am in sz. 22/24(most are really loose) in jeans and wear some athetic/lounge pants in sz.xl(3 fit and 2 don't..lol) i have some in 2x(1 loose and 1 fits ok)

i'm thinking around 225 lbs i was in sz.20/22,for some reason that sticks in my head

around 175/180 i wore sz.14(prepregancy) and wore xl lounge pants

i hate how pants are sized so different..AGH

one reason is i think their clothes are too trendy and target the younger crowd. can't wear that to the office.

second reason is nothing in there that fits. if i can wear a size 16 fitted shirt from ralph lauren why the hell do i have to wear a size 26 from lane braynt.

third reason the quality of some of their clothes is lacking.

I'm 5'4 and at 310 lbs. and now at 304 I wear a size 26 and feel pretty comfortable. I love the "Just My Size" line of pants, jeans, and shirts. They're the most comfortable and easy to care for clothes for my size.

At 250 I think I wore a 22. Its been a long time since then, so I'm not sure. I think at 180 lbs., when I married my dh, I was wearing a size 16. That is about all I can remember.
