    Someone said something about not using BMI. Seriously...it's really misleading. I'm 5'2 3/4'' with a BMI of about 18.6 (105 lbs, size 00-0), but there are a lot of women just on this thread who CLEARLY have way less fat and more muscle than I do, but have much higher BMI's. Fat percentage is really what counts. I suspect mine is high. Working on it.

    This website really helped me put things in perspective! So I second the fact that you need to check it out!

    As to your question: I'm 5'3 w/ a BMI of 24.3, and I wear a size 4-6 in jeans (depending on brand) and a size small to medium in shirts.

    Height - 5'9.6
    Weight - 124Ibs
    BMI - about 18
    Bf % - 16.5
    Dress size - uk 6-8, xs-s in tops etc.

    I found that with a BMI in the middle, I needed a size 10, due to my hip size. I am a medium build, quite broad shoulders and hips.

    I'm 5'4, 107 lbs, BMI 18.5, bodyfat % 20 (last time i checked). Size 4 (or S/XS).

    I strength train regularly but I'm not especially accomplished at it or anything.
    I have sort of a straight-top-to-bottom boyish "weasel" body, like a boy with (small) boobs. No hips, no waist, etc. I used to be a skinny weasel, then I was getting to be sort of a "square", now I'm back to skinny weasel. Def. more of an "apple" in that the fat sticks on my tummy. I have to be a total twig to have anything resembling a waist.

    Weird about the sizes. When I decided it was time to lose some weight I was 132, and actually starting to squeeze disturbingly *out* of a size 8. I don't know if these are non-US sizes mentioned here but some of you weigh 132+ at about my height and wear size 4-6, etc. I guess that's because of body composition...

    Also maybe it's because I shop in places like Urban Outfitters and Barney's where the clothes are smaller. When I try stuff on in like J Crew, I'm sure I''m like a 0. When I was at my biggest, size 6 there was falling off me. They really get into the vanity sizing.

    5'7
    138
    BMI 21.6
    Shirt size medium
    Pants size 8
    I think being taller lends itself to the higher sizes. I am the tallest in my family and my sibling and cousin wear much smaller sizes. They are much shorter though. I could never even be a size 4 because I would be considered under weight if I lost 20 pounds. If you figure about 10 pounds per pants size.

    Hi! Well right now I am 211.8 lbs with a 39 BMI. I am 5'2. I am a looser fitting size 18. I've been at my goal weight 160, with a much improved BMI. I was a very loose size 14. But I am short with a big frame.
