    I am 5'3 and currently weigh around 159lbs

    I just checked my jeans, they are a size 8 medium Levi's. I know I can go from 8-12 depending on the brand and the way they make the jeans fit!

    5'5" - at 163 I wore a size 10. At current 158 I can fit into my size 8s but they are tight. At 155 they will fit and I will wear them. At 150 they will be loose. At 147 I will be able to zip my size 6s. At 142 size 6s will fit perfectly -- and mom will say I'm looking thin. :-)

    5'3"

    SW (prior to MFP): 170 lbs - size 14 pants (tight though, almost could've gone up to a 16)

    SW on MFP: 159 lbs - still size 14 but more comfortable

    CW: 149 lbs - size 10 pants (comfortable 10 in some brands, but kind of tight in other brands)

    My legs can fit into smaller sizes with no problem, but I carry all my weight around the middle so my hips and belly won't let me zip/button up the smaller sizes...or at least not yet!

    I have just started the journey.

    Starting weight was 174 lbs...and I wore a size 12 or 14, depending on brand.

    Currently I weigh 159 and am still in a size 12, but it is much looser now so I am guessing I am in between sizes right now and about to drop one (WOOT!)

    My goal is actually body fat %, so trying to get down to 21% (currently 34%) and hopefully a size 5/6 (US). Whatever weight that is I will be happy with.
