I have had a challenge to get back into a size 12, im 5'7 and im wondering around what weight id be if i got there?

I know everyones different and some lose inches instead of weight but if anyone is a size 12 and 5'7 could you tell me how much you weigh? Please :) xx

    I am 5'7" and I am around a size 10-12 right now. I think it depends on your body type (I am an apple) but I would say 145-155lb.
  • I'm 5'6", and at 165 I'm fitting comfortably into 12's.
  • I'm 5'7" and a size 12 and weigh 150 pounds. My goal weight is 140

    I'm 5' 7" and about 150 and I wear a 6 typically...it's amazing how differently people are shaped!

    I'm a pear shape, and I hit size 12 in pants at around 160. Good luck!

    UK or US?

    US size 12 I was 160 at 5'6"
  • I'm 5'7.7" and at 154lbs I can normally fit comfortably into a UK 12 (though it does slightly depend on the shop!).

    HOWEVER since I've been working out and losing inches, I weigh 160 at the moment and am back to wearing some 12s.

    So I guess what I'm trying to say is weight can be irrelevant - depends more on how "toned" you are. x

    I'm 5'6.5". I was 180 the last time I weighed myself a week ago. I would say I could snuggly fit into a size 12 dress/skirt. It's the hips that keep me at bay ;)

    I'm 5'6" and a size 12 (A roomy 12 in work pants from the limited, in michael kors jeans they are just about coming off me) and I'm 180 (I might be 178 now, haven't weighed in officially yet).

    AS you can see I weigh a bunch more than the other ladies that posted here. So when we tell you "everyone's different" -- everyone's different.

    That said, I appear to be the outlier here - looks like 150-160 is more common.

    I'm 5'7" too and I weigh around 160. For me, that puts me in between a 12 and 14. I'm an apple shape. My legs could probably fit in a 10. My waist is comfy in most 14s, but they sag everywhere else.
  • I'm 5'7' and weigh 163 and wear a size 10. It interesting to see the differences in peoples weight and size.

    I don't wear a size 12 now, but I did once, and I weighed around 160-165 ish.

    I'm built more like you. I'm 5'6 and was wearing a comfortable 8 at 160 lbs this time last year. I think it has to do with how our weight is distributed. I've also worked out more or less consistently for the past 15 years.

    Right now I range in the low to mid 170s and wearing a 12.

    I'm 5'7".. Right now, I am 169 lbs and wear a 10... At 160, I'm usually between an 8 and 10... My hips are smaller than my waist (at least pants size wise)... I usually buy pants that go by waist and length size though.. So in Silvers, I"m at 30ish... depending on the cut of course!

    I'm 5'7" and fit into my favorite jeans (size US 11/12) around 170 pounds.

    Edited to add: I've got wide hips (at any size!) and am definitely pear-shaped.

    People and their bodies aren't that different... they just live in countries with different sizing systems.

    I think she means UK12 aka US8.

    I weighed 160-170 for a size 12. And I'm 5'7:)
  • I'm 5'7" and a size 12 and weigh 150 pounds. My goal weight is 140

    I am 5'7 and weigh 145 lbs and wear a size 4 or 6... This just shows how body type plays a huge factor.

    I've only ever wore a 12 while losing weight after having a child. Not positive but it may have had more to do with my hips than weight. After baby number 1 I wore a 12 around 190lbs. (My hips went back very quick). This time around, I was a 12 between 175-180. Then again last time I was a 6 at 160 and now I'm an 8 at 157., I'm probably a bad example...

    I'm a pear shape and was about 135-140 before I was comfortably in a UK12 trouser (OP is from the UK) Now at goal i'm in a 10 and my weight hovers around 125-130.

    I agree, it's so interesting! It has a lot to do with tone. I'm 5'8, 163 and I wear a 14. When I tried on jeans a month ago weighing about 170, size 12s were sooooo tight on me. Now I'm working more on losing inches so hopefully I go down a jean size! I don't even have that big of hips - I carry all of my weight in my stomach!

    I am a US 12. I weigh 164 right now. Funny thing though, I still wore the 12 at 180lbs. Would love to finally go down a size!!
