    I am 5'10" and am 166 lbs. I wear a size 11 Old Navy jeans. The size 10 in my Carhartt jeans area a bit of a squeeze. My goal is to be more comfortable in my Carhartts.

    While sizes brand to brand are more or less a crap shoot, inside a single brand it's all about waist size and hip size, not weight. I think if you compared your waist and hip measurements to others, you'll find less difference than comparing weights.

    I am 5' 6" and weigh ~133lbs. I wear a size 4 in most womens clothing and a size 7 in misses/juniors. Since having a child, I think that is the lowest I will be able to go regardless of waist size.

    I'm 5'6" 212lbs I am currently weariing sizes 16-20..but I really shouldn be wearing the 20's but when I was 135 in 9th grad I was weare an 8. other people on here weight 130 have said things like 4 and 6. Body shape and bone structure is a big deal.

    I am 5'5", weigh around 133lbs and wear a 27 or 28" jean, depending on the brand. That's about a UK 10. I can get into an 8, but would rather avoid the muffin top.

    I always think people on TV my weight look much smaller than me, even if they are a bigger clothes size. I really don't carry weight well.

    I'm 5'6" and weigh 137-141. I wear a size 6. When I weighed 170 I wore a size 10. I think some stores create "vanity" sizing, but I'm not complaining...

    I'm 5'8" and 218 and wear a size 18. A lot of it depends on how you're proportioned (bottom heavy) or how wide your hips are. You might be slender, but the wide hip bones would account for you needing a be a larger size.

    I'm less focused on what size I'm wearing and more focused on how healthy I've become by being a healthy weight and eating healthy.

    I am 5'7" and pear shaped. ALL of my weight is in my hips/thighs/butt.

    Started MFP at 175 pounds and size 14.

    Currently 150 pounds and size 10, though they are getting a wee bit loose. I don't see myself going below a size 8 when I get to my goal weight of 145.

    I'm the EXACT same way! I am 5'7" and started at near the same weight and was in a 14. I am now down to 166 and in a 12, can't wait until I'm at 150!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!! :)

    If you are like me, then the 12s will get loose around 160 pounds. Always something to look forward to!

    I am 5'10" with a large bone structure.

    At my heaviest (280), I was a 24W. After shedding over 100 pounds, I now weigh 178 and am in a Size 10. I don't want to get any smaller than this. I also went from an XXL shirt to a Small or occasionally Extra Small, from a 44F to a 34DDD or 36DD, and from a Size 20 dress to an 8, sometimes a 10, depending on whether it accomodates my boobs or not.
    My measurements are 40.5 Chest, 29 Waist, 39.5 Hips.

    I have a lot of muscle and am built like a farm girl. Lol. I am 5'5", 183-188lbs (depending on the time of day), I wear mostly 10's but some 12's fit, I have 24% body fat and a 34.5" waist.

    Here's how my sizing and weights were:
    252.8 I squeezed in to stretchy 18's but should have been in 20's.
    220.8 I still wore 18's but could actually wear a fitting shirt without a muffin top.
    210 I was a 16
    199 I was a 14
    191 I was a 12
    183 I am a 10

    I can squeeze on 8's but its not attractive. Lol. I'm hoping to be a size 8 when I hit 170ish.

    I'm 5'4" . At my heaviest 315lbs I was wearing a size 28. I am down to 268 now and I am wearing a size 20 or 22 depending on the fit. At my lightest adult weight of 160ish I was wearing a 10 or 12.
