      5'2" 115 lbs
      Usually a small in tops/dresses
      But I have anywhere from size 5 to size 8 dresses
      I have no boobs and large hips though so my pants are usually between small for leggings and 7/8/9 for jeans

      I thought it was just to see what size clothing people wear at a certain height and weight. Although this thread has shown that people do differ in clothing size even for the same height and weight, it can be somewhat useful for people to see what size they could fit at a different weight.

      Problem is, sizing isn't standardized. At all.

      I'm 5'5", between 165 and 170 lbs. right now. I wear a medium in tops, workout clothes, dresses, etc...usually an 8 for pants - but depending on the brand and cut, I sometimes wear a 6. I have a lot of muscle...used to weigh 150 before I started lifting. Comfortably wearing the same clothes now that I did at 150, so I think that's interesting. Goes to show that scale weight really means nothing in the grand scheme of things.

      What is the deal with Old Navy? I'm 5'3" and 115, usually wear 0-2 or XS. Yes, I shop at Old Navy and Gap, but need the same sizes if I go to Walmart or Target. Sometimes, I go for junior's (maybe JC Penney or similar) and need 3-5. Target stuff usually doesn't fit, though. Their XS tops are too big, and the pants are made too skinny in the lower leg (I have muscles). I do have a cute dress from Target, size XS. It might be junior's, not sure.

      I also can't fit in Target jeans, no matter what size I am my calves never fit unless its too big at my waist!
      Right now, I'm 5'6" and 160. I'm pear shaped so I'm usually still a small in tops my jeans are an American Eagle 8, also have a pair of shorts that are a 10 that fit and a pair of jeans that are a 6 that fit but are a little tighter than I'd like them to be.

      When I was at my goal weight of 120 2 years ago (gained some weight back obviously), I wore a 0 in American Eagle jeans, could occasionally fit in some 00s, XS dresses and XS tops. I'd be happy to get to a size 2 jeans and XS top again!

      Im not too bothered about my weight (scales) per se but I have "extra belly flab" which requires trimming so that I can squeeze into tight/slutty clothing - smooth silhouette :p

      It's amazing how everyone carries their weight so differently. I'm 5' 2.5", 184 lbs this morning (thank you regain!). I'm 46-35-43 & am in that awkward stage where my 16's are now too big & I can fit into my 14's, but I squish a little over the top. I have to wear form fitting shirts (XL of course due to the girls) or I just look like a shapeless blob. I prefer not to have any muffin top showing, so right now I'm just tugging my pants up every time I stand up. Even when I was at my preferred weight of 150 lbs last year, I was still wearing a 12 in jeans & XL tops (my chest doesn't really go away).

      So, my original response to this thread was on Dec. 14, 2015. About 14 weeks ago. I'm now:

      155 lbs, 5 lbs from my goal
      44"-30.5"-41"

      I'm wearing my 14 jeans belted because they are the smallest size I own & I don't want to buy any more right now. I have size 12 shorts that I've been wearing as well & they need belted too, so I think I need size 10. I have a bunch of Old Navy size 8's on the shelf in my closet from when my oldest was still wearing female clothes & I put a pair on the other day & could zip & button them, but I had major muffin top & they were much, much tighter than I wear my pants. Still, I used to not even be able to get them up over my thighs so that's improvement.

      I'm most excited that I tried on a "goal" dress in size 12. Last time I put it on I could get it zipped, but I couldn't fit my chest into it. I had to take a lot of liberty with the plunge neckline. This time, I can fit into it if I'm not wearing a bra. Sooo excited. There is no stretch in that fabric, so I should be able to buy some size 12 dresses with some stretch & be able to fit into them with the proper undergarments. But, still wearing XL in tops.

      At 126-135lb I am a US size 0/2

      Those first three sizes are me exactly on the bottom and I'm 5'8 with an athletic build as well. Are those your sizes on the top And bottom?? I can wear sleeveless/tank tops in those sizes as my midsection is somewhat small (27 inches) but with my 12 inch arms (although "toned") I can't fit into anything lower than an 8/10. I'm down to 152 now.. I figure ten more pounds will get me there. :)

      I can, as of this morning, squeeze (it's a tight squeeze!) into a US size 4 jeans. I reckon I need to lose another 5kg or so for my muffin top to disappear ;)

      I don't know what my regular size is because vanity sizing is real. Even measurements change depending on where I measure.

      Another 5'9" lady with wider shoulders and slim hips.
      Post-baby, near 150lb, that was 40" hips and size 6 pants.
      at 135lb, 37" hips, around size 4 or 2
      at 120-125lb, 35" hips, I had to get 0 or 00 tall.

      Shirts, and underwear, I have stayed generally in regular Small (or ideally Small-Tall) not XS. Shoulders don't work with XS shirts usually so even if I need them slimmer in waist, too bad, shoulders are the limit. Waist is usually the limiting factor in pants. I think underwear isn't size inflated like pants because I wear a size called "Small, 6-8" in panties even when jeans were double aught.

      I went to the Columbia Outlet yesterday and had another fun encounter with vanity sizing/sizing inconsistency. I bought an XS hooded fleece jacket and a pair of size 6 convertible trekking pants. The fleece jacket was ridiculous. For one, I am 5'5" 125lbs. I am not an XS, let alone an XXS that I would have preferred to buy if they had any because the XS was a bit loose for my taste. However, it is a very cute jacket and my husband loved it on me, so I bought it, but I strongly disagree it is an XS.
