    I'm 5'2.
    Ive lost 57LBS and I was a size 12/13 jean and Im now in a size 5 depending on the brand.

    I plan on buying new clothes at goal weight in a pound or two here after Christmas.
    But throughout it all I just bought cheap garage sale or Salvation Army jeans when my clothes were too baggy to stay up.

    I tend not to pay attention to the sizes because holy crap are brands different!
    I can fit into a size 4 of one thing, and a size 7 is too tight on another brand.

    The even numbers 00, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, etc... Are women's sizes.

    The odd numbers 0,1, 3, 5, 7, 9, etc... Are juniors sizes.

    So, that also explains that discrepancy. They are a different sizing chart and juniors sizes are smaller.
