    I'm 5'7", medium build, and I weigh 138 lbs. I usually wear size 8 pants (although those are starting to get too big) and a size medium top--even those seem kind of short sometimes because I don't like my midriff to show at all when I reach for something at work. My bra size is down to a 32E.

    I think a lot of companies have undergone size creep because I weighed less than this when I was married in 1995 (weighed 128 lbs) and my wedding dress was a size 10 even though I was wearing an 8 in most clothes then.

    I just bought some ski clothes in European sizing, and there's nothing like that to still make you feel 'fat'--my new pants are size XL!!!

    You have the same exact goal as me! I'm 5'7 and I weigh 182. I want to get down to 165 and wear a size 8 in jeans. I am an extreme pear though. My bottom is a lot bigger than my top so it is hard to find jeans that fit. So, depending on the brand, I'm between sizes 10 and 14 (brands include, Pzi, Baby Phat, Seven Jeans). My shirt sizes are small and medium.

    I am 5'8", athletic build, currently weigh 161 pounds and wear a size 12 in women's. I think it is amazing how other people the same height and the same weight or heavier can wear a smaller size.

    I guess the body shapes make a lot of difference.

    I'm 5'7.5" and currently around 151-153 lbs.
    I wear between a 9 and 11 JR's jeans depending on brand! I honestly dont know my misses size - I prefer JR's bc they seem to fit my body type so much better than misses. I used to wear a size 7jr before I had both kids and weighed approx 135 lbs. hoping to get back there!!!! My smallest I can remember was jr size 5 sophomore in high school no idea what my weight/height was then though.

    I am 5'10 and 153# as of today. I wear a snug 8 or a loose 10 in pants. I have a thick waist and big hips/thighs. I'm the textbook definition of the pear shape. In some clothing lines like Ann Taylor and New York & Co I can wear a 6 in pants - strange. When I lost down to 135# about 7 yrs ago, I was a size 4 in pants and had toned hips and thighs at the time. Hope this helps!

    I'm 5'7".
    At my highest weight of 197 I was a size 18. Today I'm 167 and I wear a size 12 (although they're very baggy on me now). Before my weight gain I was a size 10 in juniors and weighed about 145 (I have a small frame so that was still a little on the chubby side for me).
