What size is a 5'7?

I thought it would an interesting thread to see what size everyone wears at 5'7''.  I love those magazines that show different sized on different people, sometimes it is just shocking to see what size a model really is.

I'll start, I am a size 4 (135lbs)

I'm 5'7", 163 lbs. My size 12 clothes are getting too big, and I have started buying size 10. :)

I'm 5'7", 173 lbs, wear a14/16..carry most of my weight in my stomach/body;  I think where you carry your weight, has a great deal to do with sizing.  

I also do like to wear my clothes rather loose.  I think this has a bit to do with the varied sizes, as well as the fact that different designers/stores definitely use different sizing charts. The more expensive stuff is generally smaller...the less expensive (ie Old Navy) is generally more lenient (could go into the psychology...too much here!)

borgesgreen, yes you must be wearing your clothes very loose!

Show yourself, girrrrrrrrrrl! :)

well, I have a funny shaped body...my limbs and hips are very very small, probably a size 0, but I have a little belly and a chest, which I like to cover up.  I also tend to buy clothes from stores in which sizes run really really small.....

I'm 5ft7 and wear a UK size 14 bottoms, 12 in tops.

I think you're right hkhouk... Even though I'm a 12, I have to watch the cut of what I'm wearing because my thighs get me every time!  Granted, they're smaller than what they were, but 'fitted through hip and thigh' is the bane of my existence!

I was 165 wearing 9/10's & some 12's. I was losing weight and starting to feel good. Then, I got pregnant! Twice! After losing 20 lbs, I'm now 195 and wear 14's.

Aloha from Hawaii.

I'm 137 lbs. and 5'6". I wear a size 6 and sometimes can squeeze into a 4. (depending on the brand of clothing) I'd like to be a comfortable 4 (i used to be a 4, but gained weight when I stopped paddling).  I think I'm bigger boned than most girls so even if I get to my goal weight, I'd probably never get down to a 2. I envy those 5'7" girls who are at 120/125.  Good job girls! 

I'm hoping to get down to 125-130 lbs. by my wedding in Nov.

Thank you! I am jealous that you are in Hawaii :) I'm in MI...enough said!

I am 5'7" and weigh 215 (ugg-my highest weight ever- I just signed up for CC today) I wear a size 16/18 or 20 depending on store.

Cshammas00- I'm in MI too!

By the way, I'm 5'7" and weigh 155 lbs. I wear a size 10/12 pants and a 6/8 top. My hips measure 43" and my waist is 29", so I have the worst time finding anything to fit. At one time I was 125 lbs and could wear a 4/6 comfortably, but I was very sick at that time in my life. I am aiming for 140 lbs, size 6 or 8.

I am 5'7.5"

After I had my baby March 2005

175- size 12/14

165- size 10/12

155-size8/10

June 2007 I'm down to 145- size 8

goal:135 (size 6)

I'm 5'7.5" (lol) and 208 pounds and I currently can fit into stretchy size 14 jeans or regular size 16s.

I am 5'6.5" [but I like to claim that I am 5'7" ;)].

At the end of May, I weighed 188 lbs. and I could only fit into my loosest stretchiest 14s. 

Now, I weigh 175.4 and I am wearing big 12s and some of my smaller 14s. 

My goal weight is 135 lbs (at which point I hope to be a 6.  Cross my fingers).  Only 40 more pounds to go!  Wish me luck!!

I'm 5'7" and at 190-200 lbs wear a size 16.  When I was my smallest I weighed 140 and wore a size 8/10.  Everyone thought I was too thin at that size and I thought they were nuts.  Now when I look back at pictures, I see that I was in fact too thin.   I have a lot of muscle and muscle weighs more than fat they say. My goal is to get back to a size 12.  Or an Old Navy 10.  LOL. I don't want to be any smaller than that.

At my current 180 pounds, a solid 14. 

At 165, a size 12

Around 150, I'm a size 10 (which is my goal)

At 135, I was a size 8 (those days are over)

A lot of this is going to depend on if you are, ummm, bottom heavy or top heavy.  I am definitely NOT top heavy.  LOL!

I'm 5'7" and currently 176 wearing a size 12. A few years back I was 148 wearing a size 7. All my weight goes to my abdominal area! Plus I got me some d's.

bump!

I am 5'7'' and weigh 164.  I usually wear size 12.  My goal is 145 and size 8.  I have a belly pouch too, after having 3 large babies within 4 years.  My largest baby was 1 week early and weighed 10 lbs 12 oz!!! 

I'm 5'2 and weigh 163. I'm a size 8. I do have a large body frame and am rather muscular. People usually think I weigh 130 lbs. My goal is to get down to 140 lbs/ size 4.
