    its really interesting to me that even though im the same height and weight as one of the girls that post earlier, that she wears like 2 pant sizes smaller than me O_o

    i guess we all carry our weight differently!! (maybe she just has a big head jk lol)

    I'm 5 ft. 6 in and 143 lbs and I wear a loose 10, maybe an 8 depending on the store. Medium tops for the length but my top half of my body is so small (extreme pear shape, LOL). That said, I'd wear a 15 in jr sizes but they are so low cut and I don't want anyone but my husband seeing my cracktastic butt ;)

    Often the pants that are large enough to get over my behind are huge in the waist.

    Yup! Even as a super skinny high schooler I had this problem. It's certainly frustrating! The Gap's trouser pants are awesome. They seem like they are made for those with a defined butt and hips!

    5'3" right now 149.6 and a size 6 in misses. At 140 and lifting 3 days a week I am a 4 misses, and 7-9 juniors, some brands an 11, depends how much butt room they give you.

    found an interesting article about sizes:

    exactly! i try not to buy juniors but will go up to a 9 or even an 11 and belt them tight(waist is too big) just to be sure my butt crack isn't haning out. It always feels like it is in Jrs.

    5'4", 102 lbs, I haven't bough clothes since losing 20 lbs, but I would guess I am a 2 or maybe a stretchy 0.

    at 120 lbs I fit my size 4s perfectly.

    Currently, I weigh 168 lbs and I just went clothes shopping this past week, bought Medium shirts and size 12 jean shorts where as when I started I was 222 lbs, size 18 pants/shorts and XL tops, but like you said, depending on who makes what I've been bouncing between Med and XLarge. And my height is 5'3"

    I am 5'5" and 125lbs. I wear a size 3/4 mostly, though in more expensive brands I wear a 1/2 and in cheaper brands I wear a 5/6. I guess making their sizes run bigger is a way for stores like Abercrombie to get people to keep shopping there and dropping $80 on a pair of jeans. I wear medium in shirts for the most part.

    Awesome site! Made me realize that the goal weight I had chosen is probably right for me, there are a lot of women who have the same body type as me and look how I want to look. Very cool!

    I'm 5'2...about 162 and I wear a small/med on top and a size 8/10 on the bottom. If I shop in juniors stores I wear an 11/12. (I have very large hips (Im bootylicious!) and a small waist relative to my hips so height and body type make a difference.

    Well, I'm a women's 4 or 6 and a junior's 7, and I weigh 143... but I'm also 5'11, so that sort of distorts things.

    I'm in a 9 to an 11 in juniors and an 8 in womens bottoms and I wear a medium in womens and a large in Juniors. I'm 5'4" and at 155. I'm short torso'd so I like the weigh the juniors pants/shorts fit me better (although the size is "larger" lol).
