Height definitely makes a difference. But there is just so much variation even at the same height or weight. I have seen so many people on here that same height and weight as me, but where I'm in a size 14, say, they are in a 10 or even 8. Drives me crazy, but it's just life. Or they are the same size and height as me, but 50# more. Seriously, 50# more. Doesn't seem to go as much in the other direction
. I seem to be much larger than most other people my height and weight. But what are you gonna do?
Also, figure type can make a big difference - do they carry their weight high or low?
