    It all depends on your height, and secondarily on your fat to muscle ratio. 150 lbs and 9% body fat at 5'7"? Sure you could be a size 4. 150 lbs and 27% body fat? No. 27% body fat but 5'11" at 150 lbs? Sure you could be a size 4.

    I'm a size 2 and I am 111 lbs at 5'9". So if you're my height you could go with 120 at ~20% body fat.

    Dunno how tall you are, but I'm about 5'1-2", and I weigh around 120 pounds. I wear anywhere from a 2 to a 6 depending on the manufacturer, but generally a 4. I carry most of my weight in my hips and thighs, too. No idea what my body fat percentage is.

    It depends on TONS of variables besides weight- muscle to fat ratio, height, hip width, how you carry your weight.....it's almost impossible to compare your size to someone elses.

    But to answer your question I wear a 2/4 in most pants and I'm 145 at 5'4"ish. But that means almost nothing.

    Why do people obsess on a pant size? I don't care what size I wear, as long as I think I look good in the jeans. Besides, no one knows what size the jeans are but me. I mean, I don't wear my jean inside out, so the tag don't show.

    Just buy a pair of jeans at Old Navy. They're notorious for having their sizes run big! A 10 in any other brand will be a 4 or 6 at Old Navy :-)

    Agreed! That and also being able to find clothing that fits well. Sometimes I mention my clothing sizing on here for context.

    Totally depends on your size and composition. I'm 5'2" and wore a size 4 between about 130 and 140lbs. My best friend, also 5'2" wore a 4 at about 115- 120lbs. We're just built differently and I tend to have more muscle.

    Here here! Also, since sizes rarely are consistent across brands, it really doesn't matter.

    I'm size 4/27 jeans and 5'4" ~135. But I also lift and carry a lot of my fat in boobs.

    ETA isn't a size usually ~7-10 lbs depending on height? So I'm guessing 120-130 for you.

    Because cuter styles come in smaller sizes. Sorry but not everyone likes wearing Wal-Mart, old navy, lee, etc brand of borderline fugly jeans.

    Yep. Proportions are the key, although overall weight/%BF matter, too.

    Just as an example, I'm 5' 3", 117-118 lbs and a size 2 most places, occasionally a 4. I was a solid 4 at 125 lbs.

    I fit into a 1/2 the other day @ 5'4, and a very hippy 136 lbs. most of my closet it size 4-6 (26-28) so shop around, you are probably a size 4 somewhere now.
    Look at Rachel on this season if biggest loser, she is a size 6 dress at 160+ and I just bought a wedding dress at a size 6.

    I am 5'5", and I am also 150 lb. and a size 10. My daughter, who is the same height as me is 122 lb., and a size 3/4 in most sizes. Hope that helps. We are both somewhat muscular but with a little fat.

    Just because you already said you are 150lbs and fit into a 10 I'd say you'd fit in a 4 for sure at 120. I'd make it more of a range if pant size is really your goal like 2-6. Or maybe measurements (measure your waistline, hips, etc and set a goal).

    I think measurements is the best way to see your progress, unless you only buy jeans from one manufacturer.

    Oh, I see. I've always worn below a size 4.

    It all depends on your height, and secondarily on your fat to muscle ratio. 150 lbs and 9% body fat at 5'7"? Sure you could be a size 4. 150 lbs and 27% body fat? No. 27% body fat but 5'11" at 150 lbs? Sure you could be a size 4.

    I'm a size 2 and I am 111 lbs at 5'9". So if you're my height you could go with 120 at ~20% body fat.

    the size of the pelvis is also a major factor. Wide hips = less likely to fit into a size 4, regardless of body fat percentage.

    Just to further illustrate this point-- I'm 5'4" and a size 2/4 and I weigh 125.

    The cuter jeans aren't just in size 4...I personally see a lot in 8, 6..etc..

    There are so many variables. I am 5'7" and I weigh 120. My jeans are a size 0 and my work pants are a 2. Some brands run small and I have to go up to a 4. Really depends.

    Something tells me that you make the jeans cute, not the other way around.
