I know it depends on your height and weight, but does anyone know what pant size I should wear if I'm a height of 63.75 inches or five foot three and three quarters of an inch???

    6? 12?

    i have NO idea.

    i also think you should go to a store. you can try stuff on and if it doesnt fit, you can try a different size. then you can buy the ones that fit.

    It has a lot to do with body build, where you carry your weight, etc. Are you small-waisted and big hipped? Or the opposite. Is your butt curvy or flat or somewhere in between. BMI, waist to height ratios, waist to hip ratios, where you carry your fat (for example, abdominal fat is supposed to be worse - indicator of increased risk of heart disease, diabetes, and more) are more important than pant size. You can be the same height and weight as another person and be in two very different pant sizes depending on body build, muscle mass, fat, etc. Pant size is subjective. Other things are a better indication of health.

    Are you asking what pants size you should wear now? Or what pants size you should be? Either way, the answer is: the size that fits. And if anyone is checking your tags for the size, punch them! It's rude to reach into other people's pants without an invitation.

    I tell everyone I'm a size 4. Let them call me a liar. :drinker:

    QFT

    Women's pant sizes aren't just about your waist and weight- your shape and how you carry weight matters. Another woman could be the same height and weight as me with the same waist measurements and wear a different pant size, because I carry weight in my upper body and she could be pear shaped.

    and it also depends on your frame (big, medium, small)
    you probably wont know until you lose the weight

    Maybe instead of size you should just get to a healthy weight..:) sizes differ from store/brand and body shape/height. I'm barely 5'1 and I'm trying to get to the high end of my healthy weight of 132 ...

    you can really not tell by pant size, it all depends on the brand and how they are made. I have pants in my closet that range from a size 5-9 that all fit.

    My waist is about 34 inches but I'm trying to get down to a 32. Usually I'm pretty good about that. Also I'm 5'11" and I've been married for quite a few years, if that helps any. I'm not a republican but my fiscal idealogy does run toward the more classical conservative style, and my inseam is a 32 as well.

    When driving I'm typically the sort of person who is religious about use of turn signals - - I prefer boot-cut jeans. I've tried skinny jeans but I'm not above using the hand brake if someone is riding my bumper.

    I say that one of my hobbies is paying guitar, but I've never really taken it seriously, so I wear belts for fashion and NEVER to keep a pair of pants up. I often ignore it when clothes say dry-clean only and I'll admit to trying skinny jeans. Those I would buy a size larger or so.

    Are you asking what size you "should" wear with a 41" waist? I'd probably suggest a 3x for you and see how that works. I manage a dress shop and lots of women have no idea what size they are due to weight loss, gain or wearing very accomodating stretchy fabrics.

    Or are you asking what size someone your height and not overweight will wear? That varies too much to say, usually under a size 10, but really depends how you carry your weight.
