    I'm currently 179 pounds and able to wear a loose 14, but have recently tried size 12 and they do fit comfortably. Shirts I can fit a LG in most styles. I haven't explored anything smaller than that though. I am 5'5 also.

    It depends where I shop! I can range from a 0 to a 6!!!! My guess is a 2 or 4 petite is my actual pants size. I am 5 foot 3 and I weigh between 113-115 on average. But, my rear end is round and I have hips - so that plays a part in my pants size!

    It think it all depends on where you shop and where your from.

    I'm 5'6' and was in tight size 14 pants and L tops at 180 pounds. Now at 138 pounds I'm in size 6 pants and S or M tops. It's not just an issue of weight. All else being equal, a lean, well toned body will fit into a smaller size than a flabby, "skinny-fat" one of the same weight.

    I'm 5'4 and weigh 139

    I just recently broke into wearing size 6's. I can wear a size 6 in AE juniors jeans and a size 6 in womens dress pants. My goal weight is around 125 and I wear a lose size 4 at that point (sometimes a 2 if I am lucky on the brand).

    I wear a small/medium in shirts. I used to wear size L before I started (weighed 150). Now my boobs are getting tiny and more things fit better. :)

    I'm 5'2" and weigh 110, and I wear somewhere between size 5 and 7 pants/shorts (would be less if I didn't have the thicker thigh body shape), and wear a small or medium t-shirt. All pants are too long for me, though :(

    Anywhere from a size 2 to a size 6. Weight 125 height 5 ft 7.5 in. It really depends on where I purchase the clothing. Sizes are so undependable.

    Currently in maternity clothes, lol.

    But at my best weight (118-123 lbs, 5'0") I was in size 4 pants and dresses and S or XS shirts, depending on brand.

    That's my goal after baby comes ... to get back to a size 4

    I weigh 172 and wear an 11 or 13 in juniors,have no clue about womens I wear a large shirt but thats pushing it cuz my boobs are big lol oh yeah im 5'6

    I wanted to add that I dont shop in the womans department for my jeans because I dont like mom jeans lol
  • 5'6", 141lbs.

    8 pants/medium tops in womens
    11 pants/large tops in juniors

    I carry all my weight in my butt and my chest, so this greatly effects what I can and cannot fit into. Often the pants that are large enough to get over my behind are huge in the waist. It's irritating, but something I guess I just have to live with. Shirts that fit me in the chest are large in the tummy. Again, irritating, but I guess I have to live with it.
