it would depend on muscle mass. if you've got a lot of muscle built up and because of that you wear a 14/16, you would weigh more than if you don't have a lot of muscle built up and are just hefty.
i was a size 16 at one point, but I worked out a lot and had a good bit of muscle built up and weighed about 180. but due of uncontrollable circumstances, i was unable to work out so much and got flabby but actually weight about 10 pounds less than when i was more muscular and still wore the same size.

Allow 10 to 12 pounds per size
so 140 to 160 on the conservative scale
160 to 182 on the higher end.
I hope that takes care of your question.
You also have to factor in muscle weight as all body types are different.
This is a general guide that is used in the fashion industry.
If someone goes down or up a size the usually lose or gain 10 pounds give or take.

It depends on her build. If she is very muscular and heavy boned, she will be a lot heavier at a size 14-16 than a woman with a light frame and not a lot of muscle mass.
At an estimate, I would guess around 160lb-180lb, but everyone is different.
HTH : )

I am 5'6". Right after giving birth to my daughter, I was fitting into size 14-16 clothes, and I weighed about 185ish. (Dropped to a size 12 at about 165ish, down to a size 10 at roughly 150ish, down to a size 8 at roughly 140ish...you get the idea) :)

It depends on your shape. When I wore a 12 I was about 130 lbs but my Mom wore a 12 at 120 so it depends on your shape. We're both 5'4".
