    You'll find everyone varies so much even at similar heights and weights, depending on their build).

    I'm 5'10", weigh 195 and am currently in a size 10 jeans (or 31WX34L if you go by those sizes).

    I'm an hourglass with pear tendancies as far as shape goes. The reason I point this out is because I can't even pull a size 14 in skinny jeans up over my thighs although the waist would be way too big. In "skinny" or "slim" fit a 16 fits my thighs and butt but the waist and belly area are huge. So my size 10s are all in a "curvy" fit (big butt & thighs) and so are the 31X34s (silver brand, Suki style) and are still "tighter" in the butt and thighs and a little loose in the waist. Even at my biggest size (22) I still had to wear a "curvy" fit... just bad genetics!

    ETA: I'm female and in Canada (our sizes are the same as the US).

    I am 5'6 - 258 size 24 US
    Something I have been trying to figure out are the huge size discrepancies? I have never been below a size 10, usually a 12. I am normal bone structure, I used to weigh between130-135 Lbs & 10-12 was the smallest size I ever wore. I was in decent shape,played sports etc. Just curious how so many people can wear such small sizes at that weight. Even some people hereMFP that weigh 200 # Are in 14s I just don't get it. Any feed back on that? Just wondering :noway:

    I know... Read me reply above! It's too hard to compare sizes because there are so many variables! If it helps my measurements are Bust 41, Waist 32.5, Hips 42 & Thigh 24.5 (a 36DD bra if that factors in).

    1st day - vanity sizing! I am sure I would have been an eight or ten ten years ago if I had been the weight/shape I am now! :)

    I am 5'5", 170 pounds and I wear US size 12-14 pants, 12-14 dresses and M-L tops. It really all depends on the store, brand and article of clothing, I find there can be big differences.

    1stday13 - I was wondering the same thing. I am 5'6" and wiegh 231. I wear a 20 in pants normally (of course the cut matters). I have large thighs and a smaller waist to finding pants has always been an issue. I was wearing a 14/16 when I weighed 180 lbs. I wear 1XL or 2XL tops. (38 H that does not seem to go away with weight loss). I do not wear button up tops except as an overshirt that I leave unbuttoned!!
