and also 5'7

I am 5'7 and 163. I wear anywhere from an 8 to a 12, 8 in dresses especially. Which confirms what we all know, sizing is bizarre.

Well, I'm 5'6, and just fit comfortably into a size 24 (down from a 26)...granted, I have NO butt/hips, so even though I'm 311 pounds, I don't wear nearly what I would if I DID have those...I wear a 2X in my scrub pants for work...even at 350, I was a 26/28, and a 3X in the scrubs. So I'm thinking that at 200, I should be able to wear something fairly small...let's hope. Hoping my upper body shrinks (as I am top heavy...HATE IT) or maybe get some curves?!?! MAYBE?!?!? Now I'm off the topic...o.O

5'7, 134 lbs, solid size 8. I see people that are the same weight and are a size 4. I'm very hippy. When I lost weight I noticed my pelvic/hip bones jutting out like crazy and I called my parents wanting to know who the **** that came from. I don't like them.

Oh yeah. At my highest weight of 210+, I was a size 16/18.

I'm 5'9", 153 pounds and wear a size 10 (maybe sometimes and 8) in pants. I am also bottom heavy though (I can wear a small or extra small top). I carry the weight in my butt and thighs. So, as everyone else said, it depends on how you carry your weight and your body structure

5'6" and 162. Depending upon the stretch I go from a 6 to a 12. Realistically, I'm probably a 10 right now.

HW was 165. Wore a 12 (if I remember right- I've been wearing pants that are too tight lately, since I didn't want to buy new ones)

LW was 130/5. Comfortably wore a 6 (non-stretch jeans).

5'7", about 166 pounds, and I wear a 14... have been wearing 14 since about 185, and will continue to wear a 14 until I get to about 150. I have gigantic hips. :cry:

When I weighed 214, my size 18 "petite" jeans from Lane Bryant were starting to get tight. They are now quite loose.

I am 5'4". I am now 199.

I am trying to hold out with a belt because I hope the next size will change quickly.

NoSenseOfAdventure 02-17-2006 06:55 AM

Ohhh, this is interesting.

I'm 5'3, 159 and a comfortable 10 (in American) in trousers, I have some size 8 skirts though - It feels so weird typing that, me a size 8? :rofl:

ncola 02-17-2006 08:50 AM

I'm 222 now and I fit somewhere between a 16 and 18 pant, depending on the maker.

Oh, and I'm 5'6"

bluedevil 02-17-2006 11:05 AM

I'm 5'6", weigh just under 170, and wear mostly a size 10 (medium top). I've got some 8s and some 12s, though. I'm sort of hip-less.

At my highest weight of 286, I wore a size 24.

ladyjames63 02-18-2006 08:39 PM

I am 5'9, 260 pounds, and I wear a size 20 in pants. It seems, though, that I am much heavier for my size than I should be, but I don't feel particularly muscular. When I was younger (and thinner), I was usually 30 pounds heavier for my height than I should have been, but was only 1 clothing size larger than average. I have a small waist (or big hips).

I am 5'4 204 and a size 14. They are starting to get tight! I am hating it!

Marineswife85 04-19-2006 11:20 AM

Im 5'6", 215 and i wear a size 20. Jeans fit me now tho because of the shape of my stomach after having a baby, so i could probably fit into an 18 if i wore them lower..
