Height: 5'10"
Weight:220
Dress Size: I'm not really sure? I wear a L at Forever 21 and 12/L at Express (the only places I normally buy dresses)
Shirt Size: I tend not to wear women's shirts as I have a big bust and long torso, they never seem to fit me right. I wear a M in adult sizes though. I'd guess I'd be an XL in women's.
Pant Size: 14/16
I could have sworn I posted my sizes a while ago.. hmm.
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 124lbs
Dress size: 6
Shirt size: S or M
Jean size: 7
I have a "curvy" body type. It seems like no matter how much weight I lose, I can never get into a pair of size 5 jeans! I dropped down to 114lbs but it didn't look right on my frame.
I live in England, therefore all my measurements will be UK sized.
Height: 157 cm / 5'2
Weight : 134 pounds
Dress size: Size 12 UK
Shirt Size: Size 12
Pant size Size 10 UK. ( I'm small around the hips but big around tummy and big boobs)
I think a 12 UK is the equivalent of a US 8/10 depending on the brand.

OK this is just so depressing. I really just want to cry reading it. Routinely people weighing 30 to 50 pounds more than me wear a similar size or smaller. People my weight or maybe 10 pounds above my weight wear 2 sizes smaller.
Height: 5'4"
Weight: - 164.6
Dress size - No clue - don't wear
Pant size - 16 (can wear a 14 only if it is special "curvy" cut)
Shirt Size -XL to L depending on style
I know why it is. I have a large waist. My waist at the narrowest point is 38". I actually have records from when I first joined WW in 1988. At that time I weighed 167 (a couple of pounds more than I weigh now) and my waist was 33" == a full 5" smaller than my current waist.
Part of it is, I guess, age (I'm 57). I was sedentary for several years. However a year and a half ago I joined the gym and started seeing a trainer and did weight training (and did cardio also). I've slacked off the past 5 months but I was very regularly exercising for months and while I have lost weight (40 pounds) it really hasn't made much of a dent in my waist size.
Finding pants to fit is difficult. To get them fit my waist then everything else is too large. But if they don't fit my waist then I can't get them on.
Back when I weighed 207 I was wearing size 22 and now I see others at similar weight wearing sizes the same or less than I weigh now at 164.

I have seen this too!! I am 122 and have a pair of size 8 jeans that fit well and there are others who are 150+ who also wear a size 8. It's inconsistency in sizing between stores + different body shapes.
It doesn't matter what size we wear, it matters what looks good on us!
