[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At 5'4", a size 8 would be 150-160 lbs? 160lbs at 5'4" is BMI 27.5, overweight but not obese.

No, 150-160lbs would be a size 12.
Size 8 is probably 135ish [/quote]

I’m 153lbs and wear a 6/(28 jeans). When I was 135 I could easily wear a 4, sometimes a 2. [/quote]

Yep I was 150 and 5'2 and size 8/10 with a 25 in circumference in my thighs. [/quote]

I’ve been every size there is.   At 5’3”  I started adult life at 100 lbs.  After baby I went up 10 lbs.  when I started part time work I weighed 130 lbs. After cancer treatment the drugs had a weight gain side effect and I gained 35 lbs quickly, up to 165 lbs.   premature menopause created a gut for me which is disproportionate to the rest of me.

Now I’m a steady weight of 125 lbs and at 5’3” I wear medium or large tops with size 31 pants.  They are usually baggy which is how I’m comfortable.

PP - I measured my thighs and they were 16” in circumference.  That shows how people store their weight differently because our sizes are similar.  [/quote]
