im 5 foot 5 and about 190 pounds...if the pants have some give in them, like athletic pants, i can fit a size 8/10...i hate jeans and never wear them but the one pair that i have, from years ago, is a size 12 or perhaps a juniors 11/13 and i can fit those snugly
I am 5'6", ~150lb and a size 1/2 in Old Navy pants (yes, i found size One jeans there and snagged them as my 'goal pants')... and a 2/4 in Limited pants, so lets say a 2-4 depending on the store. I found within the last 15lb in particular i was dropping a size every 5lb or so, where it took me 30+lb to get out of the tight 16s.
I am 5'3" and 150 lbs (this morning). I mainly wear size 12. Have some older size 14's that are too tight. Can sometimes squeeze into a newer size 10 thanks to vanity sizing! I have been wearing the same size since I weighed about 180!!! Hoping this will change soon because I won't allow myself to buy new clothes (unless I really have to) until I can get smaller ones and my work clothes are getting REALLY worn. I have lost a shoe size which is really odd, because I never thought my feet looked that fat or puffy before.
wow, what a difference a few inches in height makes ...I am 5ft3" and weigh 198...I still have to wear 16/18's most of the time ...I carry a lot of my weight in my middle area so need the bigger waist I guess.

As far as the shoe size, I can remember 5 years ago when I wore a size 4, my shoe size went from a size 9 1/2 to a size 8 1/2. That was weird.
I'm 5'0, currently 137lbs and my jeans are a UK size 14 (US size 10) but I can feel them getting loose by the day so I could be in UK 12s (US 8s) soon.
I'm hoping when I get to my goal I will be a comfortable UK 8 (US 4)
I'm 128.5lbs. As for pants size I'm a US size 6P or 8P. It really depends on the cut and brand. I'd really like to get back to me size 2P I used to be.
5'10" and 188lbs currently....and squeezing into my size 14 jeans. I am a pear shape and carry most of my weight in my hips and thighs.
Sounds like we have the same body shape! I was a 14 at 188 or so, and am a 12 at about 175.
Too bad my body doesn't seem to like losing weight from my bottom half- at my lowest so far, it hurt my tailbone to sit on hard floors but my thighs still wobbled everywhere. :P

I can't even sit for any length of time on wooden chairs anymore because of loss of butt fat. Thighs and hips are still too big though. Never thought I'd miss having a bit more padding on my backside.
I am 5'3 at 199 I was wearing a size 20/18 - 17 lbs later I am comfortable in a 16. My goal is to be a comfortable 12. I have a long upper body and short legs, my favorite shop has a petite range but only starts at size 14 - so really looking forward to buying pants and not having to fix the hems for a change.
