If you are a size 8, how much do you weigh?

I'm 5'4 and at 130 I was a 2. I'm up to 140 right now and I'm a 4. In skinny jeans I'm a 6.

To answer the original question, I was around 150/155 when I was an 8.

so what's wrong with me that I am not a size 2? is it just that I have a thick waist or something? or maybe I have very light bones are something... Its weird to think how out of alignment my size is with weight, compared to most people... Sometimes I wear a 10, and I really am 130 lbs. Now I feel very freaky...

I posted above--pretty much the same stats. You're probably small-boned like me. Just a build thing.

I'm the size 4 now person. I do have a relatively small rib cage (32C), shoulders and hips but meatier limbs (like sometimes I can't buy boots I like once in awhile bc my calves are too large). It's all about shape I guess and how you feel good. I can't seem to stay below 130 ever no matter how hard I try. I'm also not muscular. I have too high a fat percentage.

I love this thread! I am also a size 8-10 but I thought everyone on DCUM was a gorgeous, skinny, man keeping, foxy lady in yoga pants. Thanks for this thread!!

I've got 3 inches over you in height and I weigh just 5 lbs more than you do.

I hardly think that at 5'4" 130 lbs is that "light."

That's because you're short. I'm 5'9" and 145 and a size 4. Shock!!

I'm 5'8" and just hit 155 lbs after steady weight loss from around 200. Was originally a 14 (that probably needed 16 but refused to admit it) and am now in all 10's but in the last couple weeks they are fitting too big and I'm going to venture into 8s. I fear I'm in a weird in between sizes stage though.

I am 5'4" and about 42 pounds. I wear a size 10 and sometimes a 12. I never understand how people who weigh a lot more or who are shorter can be a 6 or an 8. I guess a lot of people are wondering this since we are talking about it here.

Same here. I'm larger now but that was my weight when I was an 8 in college.

I'm 5'5" and 122 with a small, but curvy lower body (wide hips and butt) and long, thin legs. I buy size 8 pants for the hip fit and then get them altered to fit in the waist and shortened a bit. Typically my jeans are a 6, but I know that is vanity sizing.

I am surprised that you would be a size 8 and not a 10 at that height/weight ratio.

Are you busty?

I found this curious too. I am 5'0, 130 lb and wear a size 8. But I also do not like anything feeling the slightest bit tight on me.
