Petite Women: What's Your Wrist Size?

One measure of frame size is the size of the wrist. Mine is 5 5/8". I have a small frame and am 5'2". Standard guidelines about weight range and caloric consumption often do not apply to me.
I measured right across my two wrist bones, which of course I can see quite easily.

I'm borderline petite at 5'5... I'm short-waisted so petite tops tend to fit me better than regular misses tops. My wrist is 5.75 inches.0

I am 5'3", my wrist is 5.5", and standard weight range and caloric consumption still apply to me.0

I'm 5'3" and mine is a little under 6 inches.0

My wrist is 6 inches and I'm 5'8/5'8.5. What does this mean?0

I'm 5'5". My wrist is 5.25. Definitely a "small frame".0

I am 5' 3"........my wrist is about 6.25
I rarely wear petite sizes, as the cut seems "off" for my body type.0 -
Mine's 5.5 and I'm 5'4". I have a very small frame.0

I'm 5.5 ; my wrist is 5.5 inches. I eat plenty of calories and still lose weight. I just look less skinny at lower weights than someone of the same height with a bigger frame.0

I'm just shy of 5ft7" and have 5" wrists, and am definitely not small framed, I am however a pear shape... conclusion? This wrist measurement thing is not very accurate!0 -

5'2 3/4 and mine is 5.75. I have a medium frame. My arms are where the fat goes to hide. :ohwell:0

5'3" and my wrist is just a fraction under 6", so I'm kind of in between small and medium. I think the cut-off for small is 6".0

It's a measure that's often cited. Just goes to show that nothing is accurate all the time.0 -
