This is a question for a friend, who is 5'8" and much larger than a size 6. She wonders about this as a goal. How much do you weigh at size 6, and are you happy at this size?

    I'm 5'8" and a size 6! I weigh between 135-140 at a size 6. I think it's a really good, healthy weight for my height and body type, but everybody's body is different.

    i'm 5'9 but my sister is 5'8. I weighed 140 and fit a size 6 she weighs 130-135 and wears a 6. I have more muscle then she does thats why I weigh more and were the same size.

    I'm a size 6 at about 128-130 pounds. I'm actually bulking trying to put on muscle but I think my current size is pretty good. I just want some more muscle on my frame.

    I'm 5'9''. Currently fit in a 8-9 at 146 lbs.

    IF I could fit in a size 6 ... I'm sure I'd be 120-125 at this rate. I have hips though.

    I'm 5'8 and 1/2" and a size 6. Today I weighed 146 - I run and strength train so that adds muscle, if I didn't workout I may need to weigh 140 to still be a size 6.

    How curious.. it's very interesting to hear all the different body types
    Personally even at my lowest weight 135, I could not fit into a size 8, my hipbones wouldn't allow it.
