Hi, I'm wondering what a the average circumference of a UK Size 10 / US size 6 thigh would be? I'm trying to set myself inch loss targets and knowing what to aim for would be useful. I'm 5 '8.5 and I take my measurements mid-thigh.

Help please!!!

    I wear a size 6 US. My thigh measurements are about 23".

    Please keep in mind that a size "X" in whatever clothing is going to fit differently from manufacturer to manufacturer. I recently tried on a pair of capri pants that were a size 6 and I had about 3" gap between the front buttons. I couldn't have buttoned them if my life depended on it. The pants I was wearing that day were a size 4. So...take it for what it's worth.

    I'm currently a size US 6 and my thighs are 23.5 and 23. I carry most of my weight on my lower half though. I'm 5'5.5". All brands fit different though. I have two pairs of jeans in the same style, just different colors and the one pair fits a bit more loose than the other.

    I'm not even sure what size I wear right now, but you all just made me feel a lot better about my 23/24" thighs because now I feel like that's kind of normal haha
