Quote  |  Reply
hi

you may know this but i am 5'2'' or 5'3''.  i wear anywhere from a 5-7 usually, but i used to fit in a 3 :(.  anyway, i get the feeling that you guys are thinner than me, (and i don't know my weight.) 

what sizes and weights are you? and maybe where you carry most of your weight? *sigh* i carry it all over but have massive love handles and stomach.

5'2", 145 lbs and wear a size 8. I have very muscular legs - all my fat is on my butt and waist.
I'm 5'2", 152 lbs and am a size 10 or 12. My size 12's have just started getting too big. I carry practically all of my weight in my tummy and chest. My legs and butt lose the weight first, so they are not very fat at all. When I was 136 lbs, I was a size 9 and at 115 lbs I was a size 3.

2005: size 4-6 Now: size 2 and loving it :) But I carry a bit too much around the waist still.
i'm 5'3, ranging from 110-115... and i wear anywhere from a 0-5 (american) ...it dependds on the store...and for some reason i get embarrassed if i have to buy anything below a size 3... weird, i know... i've always been athletic, though so i look larger than i am... so i hate the "you're going to have to stuff yourself into these" looks that store employees give... anywas, i agree with the above comments... clothing manufactuers have skewed clothing sizes, i personally don't see the reason to label anything lower than a size 4.
im 5"2 and 110 pounds im a uk size 8 but want 2 b a 6 :(
im 5"2 n wear a uk size 8 in jeans and uk size 10 in tops its really annoying because i want to be both size 8 top n bottom
luvmyboy, you say that your waist is 127.5. What units of measurement is that? Sorry but I am curious and have no idea since I measure in inches!
Whoo Ha...I dont believe what I'm reading! Im in a UK size 16 which is allegedly the average female size in the UK (though hard to believe if you shop in fashion stores, some still only stock a few 16's). I didn't consider myself overly overweight until I read the comments below; I'm 5ft 3 ins and weigh 165lb. Most of the weight has been gained around my belly since I gave up smoking a year ago, my weight steadily crept from 140lb. I got to say, although I have gained this weight, I wouldn't start smoking again to loose it.

Has anyone else put on weight since quitting smoking? It would be lovely to hear from you.

I am 20 years old.. 5'2" and 108 pounds. Pear shape! The only place I can't get into shape is the back on my upper thighs. damn saddle bags! I wear anywhere from a 0-3 in pants.
i'm 5'3. back when i was 150 pounds, i wore anywhere from a size 11 and up. nowadays i fit into a size 3 to 5, though.
im 5 3' and wear a size 9 pants right now, I weigh 127.5 pounds, but I carry allot of my weight in my stomach.
I'm 5'3" and like a half and somewhere between 99-105 pounds. I wear size 1 levi's [I don't really wear anything else! haha] and xs shirts.
i'm 5"1.5 and size 5...at the store i usually shop at anyway....I weigh 121 but trying to get it down to 110 or less. apparantly my body fat percentage is above normal and i have to loose 8-10 pounds to get it to healthy.
I'm 5'3", 21yrs old, and im not sure what i weigh. haha. i stopped weighing myself for the summer, but i'm pretty sure i'm around 165.  i wear a size 11 comfortably.
i have very large hips so it's going to be a while before i can get myself into a 9.

my goal is to be a 5-6 eventually. :)
This is a good way to compare, but everybody's bodies are so different! I'm smaller up top but have wide shoulders and ribcage but I usually wear a small-medium top. Stretchy tops I NEED to wear a size small in. In pants the range is crazy. :-s Right now I'm squeezing myself into a pair of size 2-4 pants, and size 3 in Juniors. Junior sizes fit me better than regular misses/women's sizes now, go figure. :-s Probably because I don't have hips and a real butt anymore! I'm about 5'3'' and I have reeeeally short and stubby legs btw. ;-)
i am 5'3 and weight 108 lbs so I fit into a size 1-2
I am almost 5'3 and I weight 220 lbs... I fit in a size 18/20/22 pants (depending on where I shop)... I would like to fit in a 10 again. Like the original poster, I have massive love  handles and stomach... partially hips.
5'3", 124 lbs and fit into a size 10 in the UK sometimes an 8.  Think that works out to about a 5 in the US.  I also am a 'pear' or a 'spoon' and my weight is carried in the upper thighs and hips.
I am from the UK so i have no idea what size i would be if i was in America. Here in the uk i am now a size 14-16, i am 5'3" and weight about 159LBS.
I'm from the UK, 5'3 and 145lbs. My clothing size is about 12-14 UK (8-10 US).

I used to be 8-10 UK (4-6 US) but I doubt my frame will let me do that anymore. If I can get to a UK 10 I'd be very happy though :).
