    5'8" currently 179 and wearing size 14 uk (12 US) jeans
  • 5'8" 134lbs I wear a size 6-8 in women's pants and a 9 in juniors. I wear a small or extra small top in womens and a medium in juniors. I have a smaller top size naturally, lucky me:(
  • I am 5' 7 1/2" , 49 years old and weigh 176. I wear a 12. My goal is to get to a Size 6 or 8. I did Body for Life about 10 years ago and got down to 136 and was pretty lean after lifting weights via the program. I am hitting the gym again - love lifting weights but need to realize it is going to take some time to get my body acclimated to lifting again. I hit the gym to hard about 6 months ago (kind of that all or nothing type!) and ended up inurying my back.

    Sound like me - add me as a friend!
  • 5'8 in a size 16, skinny jeans size 14. lol Hope to be in a size 12 by Nove

    This morning I weighed 197. And just fit back into some size 18s. People must sure be shaped differently at the same weights.

    I agree. I am 5'11 and have dropped from 194.4 (Size 16) to 178.0 and am just now tightly fitting into a 14.

    5'7", 140 . . 6/8 jeans or a 9 in juniors. I was "blessed" with a j-lo booty and the widest hips in the history of wide hips.
    Last summer I was being fitted for a bridesmaid dress and get this, my bust and waist measured for a size 4 dress . . . my booty/hips measured at a 10! :noway: How's that for pear shaped! :grumble:

    I'm 5'8" and 136 and my sizes vary sooooo much! I have jeans from Old Navy that are a size 2, but shorts from Old Navy that are a size 6 and they both fit the same. Calvin Klein dresses are an 8, have other brands that range from a size 2 to 6! I have some old (really old) size 12 things that I can get away with wearing fit-wise, so I definitely think sizes have changed over the years. I don't consider myself small, so I'm not sure what size really tiny people wear if I can fit into a size 2.

    I am the same way! 5'7" at 133lbs. Old Navy jeans are a size 2 long (love them), with their shorts as a size 4. Target dress pants are a 2. Shirts I go between a small and medium. I'm an hourglass, and in between a small and medium build but I have a long torso. Sizes are all over the place so I try everything on!

    I'm 5'7 or 8. I don't know which inch haha. I'm 206 and I wear size 16!

    One of these days i'll be in a 4 :)

    I'm with ya on the size 4... I am 5'8 and weigh 202 and I now wear a "tight" 12 lol. Working on that 10. I started at a 262 and size 24 so anything is better than that for me :)

    I am currently 167 and almost 5'9".. I wear a 12 pants and 10 skirts/dresses. I wear size large tops but I don't like tight things, I could probably get away with a medium though if I wanted haha
    When I was over 200 pounds I wore a size 14 and so I've lost over 40 pounds but just one size.... hmm....
    I have noticed that these 12's I'm wearing today are a tad loose.. I have a very big caboose so fitting in to a 10 is SUPER hard.. I can't ever remember wearing a 10, even when I was in high school and 150.. I'm almost 30 years old now. *sigh*
  • i'm 5'9, weigh 210, size 16 pants. at my thinnest i wear half that.
  • OK, I lost 45 pounds and weight 132-133. I am 5'8" wear a size 4 jeans/pants. S or M shirt. I remember years ago in school being a 10 at 136lbs. what's going on. I am toned and do Kettlebell exercise along with Zumba 3 xweek. How do we compare in weight and pant sizes?

    5'8", 170ish, size 10 (for the most part) and one pair of old navy capris in a size 8. i aspire to a closet full of single digit sized clothing someday... given my hourglass-y shape, maybe i should just learn to sew and give up on finding pants that fit, bc they never do
  • 5.7, weight 118, size 4 pants, sometimes 2s. :)
  • I'm 5'8, 173 lbs and a size 10/12, depending on the brand. I try not to focus too much on the number since I do strength train. I just focus on feeling good, toning up, and fitting in to my pants from high school (which are now borderline too big). :)

    I'm 5'8", weigh 148 and wear a size 4-6 Jeans and a medium top.
  • I am 5'7, and 132 lbs. and wear from a 4 to a 6 depends on the brand. I'm comfortable with that, I just want it a little more toned.
  • i understand!!!!
  • I'm 5'8"/9" and currently at 210lbs and wear a misses size 14 and M/L shirts. It all depends on your body style. Most people do not think I'm over 200lbs.

    Your shape would have a lot to do with it also, if you are an apple or a pear, etc.

    Agreed! :)

    5'7, 153 as of this morning. Sz 12 (US). Waist is at least 15 inches smaller than hips.

    Even at 135, I couldn't fit in anything smaller than a 10.
  • 5"8 156lbs and size 12/14 UK :) Really want to get to a size ten again
