    I'm 5'4", currently weigh 150 lbs and wear a size 8 or 10 in jeans. I think I'm probably the same size in dresses, but haven't tried one on in awhile. :)

    I am also 5'4". I weigh 125 and take a size 8-10 jeans ...... which is ridiculously loose at the waist and still tight at the thighs.

    I'm currently 115lbs, 5' 2" and wear a US size 0-2 - although I have to say that clothing size varies too much here and then theres the whole misses vs juniors thing! I do wear some juniors sizes and I am a 3-5 in those. I just bought a suit from Express and the pants were size 0, the jacket was size 2 and a shirt that I bought was an XS.

    At my highest weight I was 148lbs and was between a 4 and 6 and didnt even look at juniors!

    5' 4"

    Healthiest weight - 135 lbs. - Dress size: 14
    Current weight - 167 - Dress size: 14

    Why the same? Big boobs that don't change all that much with weight.
    Difference? At 135 I got all of my shirts and dresses tailored to show that I had a waist. Currently, I can wear them "off the rack".

    I am 5'6" and 153 pounds and wear a size 8 pretty comfortably. At my highest I was 195 pounds and was a size 14. I never bought size 14 clothes, I just stuck with leggings and dresses because nothing fit and I didn't want to be plus sized....

    I guess size is more related to body type vs weight ... I am an apple shape 5'8"' and at 198 was in an 18 jean .. currently 162 and in a 12 .. once I hit oal I will be in a 8 to 10 ... biggest issue with me is how to loose my middle to get a smaller waist ..

    I'm 5'6" and at 252.5 I wore 18/20's

    Now I'm at 203 and I wear 12/14's (12s are tight and 14s are loose) I am an apple shape with a big waist! Legs butt and top are not so large! LOL

    I think when I get to 150 I should be in an 8. At my lowest adult weight (138) I wore a size 6 very nicely!

    I am 165 and wear a size 14 (though they are getting loose now). Before kids I was 150 and wore some 10s but mostly 12s. But then you have my mom who is in low 140s and still has to wear 12s. Edited to add I am 5'4"

    Around 140, 5'5, makes me:
    Size 8 in pants/shorts
    Size 8 or 6 (sometimes) in skirts
    Size 10 or 12 in shirts (depending on the cut)
    Size 10 in dresses

    Before MFP, I was a 10 in pants. Now my work pants from 3 years ago (skinny little black things) fit again.

    BUT...my lovely Lucky jeans are toooo big. And just when I donated all of my old pairs that I never thought would fit again...

    This is strange! I was wearing a size 18 jeans. Since I had lost some weight, I decided to try a size 16. One size 16 was WAY too small, and the next one was too big. I settled for a pair of guy's jeans size 36/30. What does that say about me?

    By the way, I rarely wear dresses.
