What is your pant size?

Okay, unfortunately I have been handed down a big butt by the wonderful women in my family. We call it 'The Morgan Butt'. Great Great Grandma Morgan had a huge caboose. I do however have the ‘smaller’ of the butts in my family but I always find that my pant size is way higher than anyone with my weight? (even the bigger buts in my fam) But when I tell people how much I weight they say I hide it well?! I always get the “I would have never pegged you for that!”

My current weight is between 200-198lbs and I am 5’5ft…I wear a size 16 (they are just starting to feel a little loose). My husband weights 50 pounds more than me and I can’t even fit into his pants (size 38-40).

What are your current stats and what is your pant size? Male responses are welcome too!

I'm 5'5", weigh 160 and I'm comfortable in a size 12. I can wear some size 10's. I've never been able to get below a size 8, even in high school. I have the biggest hips in the world (as of this morning, 41"), which made childbirth a little easier, I guess.

Lindining, actually you don't have the biggest hips in the world. When I started 3 weeks ago, mine were almost 43" (bust 35, waist 28, major pear!), and I haven't had any kids yet! I'm already down at least an inch in my hips, and more to come soon!

I started at 152ish, 5'6". I was wearing 10-12 pants, but a size 6 in tops.

Currently, I am at 146.4 lbs, size 10 pants-looking forward to 8's.

I am 5'6" and age 25.

Although it bothers me, my husband doesn't mind my lower half at all, in fact when I started he said I didn't need to lose any weight!

 I'm 39 and 5'5". I've only lost 8 lbs in 8 weeks :(. I do feel better that there is someone else out there with bigger hips than me :-). My boyfriend said that I didn't need to lose any weight when I started either. Since I've been working out, he tells me every day how he notices definition and my hourglass shape is coming back. He can't keep his hands off me! Literally!

I'm 4'9 or so and weigh 147. I wear a 16 but I think its cause of my "baby belly" I never go rid of the second time I was pregnant.  Oh and I am a 16 petite.

I bet my Morgan Butt is bigger than yours.. absolutely as well as proportionately....lol and im a  guy that should make you feel better right?

Ps everyone that is complaining is in the 40's for their hip/butt that is funny.. hunnies add 20 or so and then talki to me.. ps a guy with a hip to weight ratio  with the hip being the greater of the two is just not right... so be blessed that your a woman with the problem

I'm 19.. 127 pounds and 5 feet tall.  Right now I only have one pair of pants that "fits"... really, i have love handles pouring over them so I'm actually a bigger size but those are a 3.  Its unsightly, i'm aware of this.  I used to be a 00 back in freshman year of highschool.  Damn.

Funny you should ask...I was just pondering the situation in my mind - why can't clothes sizes be consistant like shoes???   I'm  5' 3 1/2", weight 130 and have pants in sizes 6 & 8.  I even have one pair of 10P. Makes it hard to shop online without trying on stuff!  Wish the manufacturers would get a standard measurement to follow like shoes.

im 180lbs,17(18 in 10 days!) 5' 5 and im a size 16 or 14 it reli depends on the shop i buy my clothes in!iuts reli annoying actually:( i think wow im down a dress size till i go into another shop and im back to a 16! i had to buy an 18 the other day ahh its so annoying!

Size 14-16 .

and I hate my thunder thighs !

im 20, 115 lbs, 5'2.5'' sizes vary.. usually 3.

I'm 5'8, 187ish, size 12-14 (most of the time in between.. ugh)

I'm 5'2 and weigh 169lbs my size is 14 - 16 depending on the store. I still have "turkey legs". Look like big drumsticks.

Last July (55 lbs ago) I wore 16-18. Seems weird to have lost that much weight and only changed a size or two but the big difference is now I buy clothes in "regular" stores and before I was buying in plus store where sizing is much different. Also lost more off the top than bottom I guess.

5'3", 172 pounds, and a size 16. I have huge hips (like, that's just the way I'm shaped). I'm so surprised to hear people around my same stats are wearing much smaller sizes! :(

Even when/if I do get down to 120, I know I'll still have to wear a larger size. Fortunately (and surprisingly) people do say I 'carry my weight well'.

5'1" and 157 pounds... my 14s are baggy now so I'm wearing an old pair of 12s that I found.  Those 12s are at least comfortable at the moment.

I;m 5'4, 127lbs and wear size 12

Sunshine - The main reason for this is that our bodies are all different. Muscles weighs more than fat, and that makes a huge difference. I am 5'6 and in the last year have gone from 188 lbs to 185 lbs...yeah, a whole 3 lbs!!! BUT, I have gone from a size 18 pants to a size 10 (same brand, style, etc) It just depends... I wish you luck on your goal! I know you can do it! My advice, stay away from the scale!! LOL

5'3 and within the last few months am now 110 pounds.

I've dropped close to 6 pant sizes in the last year and now wear a size 3.

I'm jealous, I have no butt and hardly any hip.  I'm 5' 8", 240 lbs and wear a size 16-18.   I would totally love having more hips because they make bigger girls look smaller and curvier.   Also I really would love to have a 'Marilyn Monroe' type body after I lose the weight, but I know that's impossible because I really have no curves except for my chest.

I'm 5'2", 112 pounds and wear a size 1/2, however I have super tiny hips, no butt and short legs so my pants never really look right.  I've been thinking about hitting up the girls department and seeing if I can find some that fit better and might be cheaper!!  LOL
