Great thread... What I find odd is.. I am 5'4... in high school I thought I was just so fat.. I was 145 lbs and my size was a 13.. From the looks of the way clothes is made now I could be in a single digit if I ever see 145 again. lol
I am between 251 and 255 right now and I wear a 20 but it is tight.
( I am pear shaped I think) I carry my weight all over..

I'm 26, five feet tall, 130 lbs and wear an 8 in jeans and a medium top.

But, my sister who is 15, five feet and 130 lbs wears a size 4. She's naturally very muscular.

S/C/G: HW:200+/LW:120/CW:142

Height: 5'1 and a 1/2" (yes the 1/2" matters!)

Default

I'm 5'2" (or maybe slightly shorter).
Currently 173.
My size 14 jeans (Old Navy) fit well, but everything has to be hemmed because my legs are so stinkin' short!

I definitely carry lots of weight in the top and waist, but no so much on the bottom. My shirts are all 14/16s, or XL or even XXL (depending on store). I have a pretty large "chestal area" as my friend would say. Button gapping can be an issue.

This thread is a great idea, but I've pretty much determined that the only way I'm ever going to know what size I can wear at a certain weight is to get there myself!!
