    this is why i think i need to lower my body fat a little bit... i think i should be able to wear mostly 4's and 2's at this weight.

    It depends on where your body distributes your weight... are you apple shaped? If you carry weight around your middle section, the smaller sizes won't be able to button at your waist. Weight on the scale is just a number. What are your measurements? I would put someone at that height around a 4 or 6. I know someone who is that height/weight and she wears a larger pant size than me, and I have 10 lbs on her, easily.

    exactly! my waist is 28-29 depending on the day. my hips are 35-36... you would think i could wear 2's and 4's but i do carry weight around the middle. i hate that! wish i could change up how things are distributed. i look like a boy with no waist

    I think measurements are better to go by because sizes vary. I wear a size 11 jeans (juniors) but a size 4 skirt. How does that make sense? I dunno...

    My waist is 27" my hips 33" and I'm a 32 A/B. I weigh 123-128 depending on the time of day and 5'4"

    (my waist isn't gettin' any smaller unfortunately for me! It's all muscle!!!)

    When I was 135 (5'3) I still wore a size 8. I don't have much of a butt, and my stomach was fairly flat. I could have probably lost a little more weight but I was extremely happy were I was at.
    Pretty much this for me. However, I wore some 5s and 6s, but mostly 7s and some 8s.

    Size 2 or 4. Size 0 at Gap... vanity sizing gone mad.

    I find this all amazing. At one point I was 108 pounds and 5'4". I NEVER wore anything smaller than a size 8.... NEVER. I had lots of muscle too and very little body fat. Seems to me that sizing has changed drastically over the past 20 years to fool women into thinking they are thinner than they are!

    I was 5'5" when I was 125 (it was when I was 14/15, I'm 5'6" now lol) but I wore a 1 or 3 in juniors and a 2 in women's sizes (like american eagle).

    Getting back to that is my ultimate goal!!

    I'm 117 lbs and wear a size 4. I'm thicker waisted though. Three or so more pounds and can fit back into my 2's. But, ever since I had children, my weight has redistributed to my middle.

    The best way to get a nice looking waist if you feel like you don't have it - is to believe it or not... lift heavy! :D If you build up your shoulders, arms, chest and lats + your quads, hams and glutes.. voila, you are shaped as an hourglass! The wonders of weightlifting. One can lose all the weight in the world, and still look the same. It is when you really get into building muscle, you get to see your body transform! :D

    I'm 5'4" and 122lbs. I find I'm between a 4 and a 6 pant size depending on the brand... most stuff I find that fits is a 4 though. It's all new to me, as I recently reached my GW (which was 125lbs.). I just started shopping for new clothes - as my old pants are all 8s and 10s - and fall right off! My top size also varies on the brand! I have anything from an XS - Med! I think most my new tops are S.

    Sizes have changed a lot since the "old" days. When I was young and thin in the late 1970's, 125 pounds wore a size 7/8. I think when I was 112 I was in a 5/6. Also 5'4.

    I'm 5' 4 3/4" and at 125 (just a little more than I weigh now) I wore a size 4-6 depending on the brand. Nothing really fits me perfectly -- I have a size 8 waist, size 0 hips, and a size 6 chest. LOL

    I'm 5'3.5 and weigh around 130ish with a lot of muscle. I wear anywhere from a size 0 at the gap to a 6 in dresses with a side zipper. I am top heavy with narrow hips, so I fit into smaller pants but have a harder time with dresses.

    True about apples. I'm a thick waisted 123 lbs at 5'6", and the higher the waistband, the larger the pants size I need. I wear a 2 or 4 if the waistband is at my navel or below and a 6 or even an 8 to fit my natural waist. The size on the label is just a number too, but I avoid higher rise pants because if they fit at the waist, they're usually too big in the butt and thighs.

    I'm 5'51/2" now, but in HS before I grew at 130 I was just a bit under 5'4" and I wore between a 5 & 7 depending on the cut.

    If this hasn't been said yet....

    THANK YOU FOR THIS AWESOME THREAD!

    I have been fat since I was 13 (40 now!), so I have wondered many times what size I should even be shooting for. I don't remember what size I wore at 13 (although I want to say 9 or 11?). I thought I was a huge, fat cow back then. I would kill to be an 11 right now!

    But, at 5'4" if I could get down to 125, then a size 6 will make me quite happy, thank you!! :D

    you're welcome. actually i was just curious about what other people wore at my same weight and wondered what measurements they are and how that relates to size. i dont' really care what size i am and i know all about vanity sizing so i don't really care if i ever wear a 2 and i'm not striving for that, nor am i obsessed. i'm happy where i am, just wondered what others wore that were at a similar place. i am going to work on reducing body fat and so that is my next goal, whatever weight i end up at.
