  • It's really going to depend on your waist size, not your height and weight. I carry all my weight in my tummy, so at 5'8 and 172 I'm still in a size 14.

    At 5'5 and around 160, I was in 8, 10 or 12 depending on the cut and amount of stretch.

    I'm 5'6" and at 160 I was a size 8-10 depending on brand. At 157, I was an 8 (and still am, currently at 151), though they are getting loose : )

    well im 155 but I'm currently wearing mostly 10s som 8s depending on the brand
  • I am 5'7". At 160 I was a 10/12. Now at 151, most 10s are too big. Once upon a time, at 135, I was a 2/4...that's where I'm trying to get to now! :)

    This is what is absolutely amazing to me. I was exactly 132 all through high school (I briefly made it to 127, but that didn't last...my body wanted 132 and nothing less) and at 132 I was a 10/12. At 140-145 I was barely squeezing into a 12. And I'm 5'5", so I'm only two inches shorter than you, and you are a 2/4 at the same-ish weight. It's like a cruel joke on me. So frustrating to know there is apparently no way in all of Hades that my body will let me get to a 6/8. :sad: :explode: :sad: :mad: :sad:
  • I'm 5'6" and at 160 pounds my 6s are tight and the 8s are ok.

    I'm 5'5 3/4. I was a size 10 at 160 with the stray size 12 here and there.

    It's interesting to see how much it can vary at the same height and weight!

    I am 5'6" and have big hips & thighs. At 160 I was in a 14. I am 142 right now and I am in a 10.

    I'm 5'5" and 162 in a size 10. A few months ago though I was in a size 8 at 160 as I had more muscle tone. I've let myself go a bit since then, though. I think it depends a lot on how much of that weight is muscle vs. fat.
    I agree with this, I am the same height and weight as you and I am an 8 in some pants and a 10 in others. But I wore a size 8 when i was 10lbs lighter too....

    I was a 10 or 12 at that weight.

    i wear between an 8-10 at that weight. depends on brand. generally the better the quality, the smaller the size. so in calvin's i'd wear an 8 and levi's i'd wear a 10.
