You measure your wrists. I think there is a link on that page telling you what size frame you are depending on your wrist size.

Here is the chart:

Wrap a tape measure around your wrist and use this chart to determine your frame size.

If you're under 5'2"
Small frame: Less than 5.5"
Medium frame: 5.5" to 5.75"
Large frame: More than 5.75"

If you're 5'2" to 5'5"
Small frame: Less than 6"
Medium frame: 6" to 6.25"
Large frame: 6.25" to 6.5"

If you're over 5'5"
Small frame: Less than 6.25"
Medium frame: More than 6.25"
Large frame: More than 6.5"

Im 5'11", I used to be 6 feet, and I weight 155-160 and wear a size 6/8. I dont look like a stick at all. I thought I would but it really isnt too bad. Trust me, you will be smaller that a 12 in the end of it all, unless you stop it on purpose. Its good news adn your gonna look great!

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."

Thanks Beth for posting this! It says my happy weight at 5'11" with a large bone frame is 173. I am comfortable with that. (I know I have a large frame, you cant even take a regular xray of my chest, you have to turn the film laterally.)

I like the website, lots of great resources! Thanks again! I recently purchased a book about maintaing weight. It talks about how losing it is half the battle but keeping it off and maitenance its HARD! I will let y'all know if I become enlightened at all. Or let me know if you have any maintenace questions that I can relate text book answers too! (( HUGS ))
