If you wear a size 14-16 do you weigh 200 pounds. Is that size very large for American women?!
Question: If you wear a size 14-16 do you weigh 200 pounds. Is that size very large for American women.?
Answers:
I think a woman who weighed 200 lbs would wear a larger size than a 14 or 16. But it all depends on a person's height & how the weight is distributed. Everyone carries their weight differently and has different shapes. Considering the average size of American women is 14, that is not a very large size. I've known women who I thought were pretty slim, & was surprised that they wore a 10 or 12 because they looked smaller. I have friends who wear from a size 2 to a 20, but they're all beautiful in their own way.Health Question & Answer

If your a taller larger built woman it may be ok. But for an average woman I have to say that is a unhealthy size. Don't worry about sizes or weight, worry about your health.Take time out and focus on what your eating and how much exercises you get in a week. If you live a healthy lifestyle you will be in a normal size. Do something while your still in a 14-16..it wont be hard to start exercising at this size range. Good luck!Health Question & Answer
