    I am 5'11 and 175 size 11 and large in tops

    same here....I think weight + height since if your taller you generally weigh more.

    I'm no longer a slave of the scale since it can really mess up your mind and how your body should look. I'm 5'2" and @ 178 lbs.
    I currently fit into size 11/12 pants and wear size L or XL top (Gotta make sure ladies got room :wink: ) Last time I recall fitting into size 11/12 pants was waaaaaaay back in the sixth grade grammar school weighing 120 lbs :huh:. In HS, I weighed around 150-165 lbs and wore size 13/14 or 15/16 clothing :ohwell: My new goal is to get into single digit sizes and to get down to at least 150 lbs. At this point, I'm really curious what size I'm going to be once I get down to my desired weight of 150 lbs :bigsmile: I tossed out the standard height/weight for me.... I know at 5'2", I'm supposed to be Low @ 108 lbs, Ideal @ 128 lbs and High @ 144 lbs. :noway:
  • I weigh 144 and bounce inbetween a 8 and 10 and wear small/medium shirts

    I'm 5'4, 169lbs. and in a size 12. I'm one of those people who drop a dress size every 10-15lbs. and I hate it (very expensive). When I was at my lowest weight about a year ago - I was 143lbs. and starting to fit a size 6. I'm 25lbs. shy of that number again and that's 3 different sizes I'll be going through again.
  • 5'3", skinny fat 108 lbs.

    Depending on the extent to which the manufacturer vanity sizes, I wear a size 0-4. I'm here because a pair of vanity-sized size 2 trousers is feeling a bit snug.

    I always feel like an anomaly because of my height/proportions. I am about 5'7" and I have a small waist but somewhat wide hips and backside. I hover somewhere between 128-130 and even at my skinniest (125) I would never budge below an 8 in most jeans. If it is a skirt or dress sometimes I can go lower to a six. Almost always a medium in tops. Juniors sizes are all over the place between 9-11 pants depending on the brand.

    5'4", 147 lbs. and size 8 to 12 depending on the pants. Size small to large in tops- it all depends on how much room is allowed for the bust.

    I'm 172 pounds and 5 feet 8 inches. I wear a size 10 and depending on the store a medium top but i prefer larges as I like the extra breathing room to hide the mommy tummy.
  • I wear about the same sizes but weigh 175 and wear L or XL shirts...I don't like clingy shirts and my belly isn't ready for a M :)

    At 283 tight 20, xxl

    Theres a pair of size 14 Dkny jeans hanging in my closet, just waiting... :)
  • I know from past experiece that when I was about 85 kilos I was a size 16 both in pants and tops and the main sizing problem I has was getting clothes long enough in the sleeve or leg. But.. I am 176cms tall!! A few years down the track I am bigger but I also believe that clothes sizing can't be taken too seriously as the sizes change so often between stores (and I even suspect they change over summer to winter seasons).

    I would suggest while finding a new outfit, don't worry so much about what size it is. Check yourself out in the mirror and if you think it looks right then it probably is! Avoid buying stuff that's in your 'size' and look more towards what is flattering your figure.

    I've always found (American) women's sizing to be arbitrary.

    I seriously have 4 pairs of shorts/pants that fit the exact same and they are sizes: 4,6,11, and 6 again. I even took a tape measure around the waist, and they're identical!

    However:
    5ft
    108lbs
    Pants- anywhere between 4 and 11 (See above)
    Shirts S-M Depending on the cut.
  • hi. i think it depends on your height and how you carry your weight. my sister is 5'6" and she can't fit into anything in the juniors section. she wears a size 14 and can't wear a 12. i am 5'7" and can wear a size 15 in junior pant, size 7/8 junior shirt (or medium), and in women a size 12 jean (squeezing into a 10) and a medium shirt. My weight is 169lbs.

    actually.... i take that back.... remembering past conversations... if memory serves me correctly... i think she wears a 12 or something around there. i don't know... but i do believe the height and where we carry our weight determines our clothing size. and for the most part... a junior 15 is nothing more than a 12 in ladies :) see... we can find ways to feel good about ourselves ;)

    I am 230 right now and in a very comfortable 16 pants (I hardly have a rear end, unfortunately) and a XL-1X shirt...depending on if it buttons up or not. W/ buttons, I have to go the 1X route. Without, I can generally get a XL but it just depends on the shirt. I have big bones (seriously) and hold my weight a bit differently. I am only 5'5.5" tall. I wear a size 11 in a shoe.

    It really depends on the brand, style and like others have said, how you carry your weight... I am 5'9" and 188 and wear a 16 pant and XL shirt, sometimes L, but it really depends on how it's cut. I'm not a big fan of tight clothes and found that they're a lot more flattering when they fit correctly so I stopped getting hung up on what the label says and worry more about how it looks and feels.

    The thing that makes me nuts looking at others is that someone somewhere told people that tight is good, but even thin people can look fat or silly if their clothes don't fit properly. When did rolls become attractive?
