    No that is not bad at all. I am also 5'6 and when i was younger about 16 i was the exact same as you. i think that is a healthy stance. But now i am 245.5 and size 18... trying to get back down to that precious size 5!!! :) lol

    How can you be curvy and weigh less then 100lbs.

    Those aren't curves, there bones.

    We only have even sizes in UK 6, 8, 10,12,14,16,18 etc

    Are there all in-between sizes in the US?

    US sizing is super-weird. There are different sizes for 'misses' or 'juniors'.

    I still haven't worked it out, but basically I think a UK14 is a US10 (i.e. two sizes down).

    At 5'6 if you are a size 5 and eat healthily/keep active you are where you should be. I wouldn't focus so much on a size being right/wrong or good/bad , because every body is shaped differently. Some people could be your height and weight and be underweight because of their bone structure...or the opposite!

    Just focus on being healthy and love yourself and your body no matter what your size is.

    Tip: people always look better when they are confident! :flowerforyou:
