Not necessarily. I'm a 10 in many pants and I'm 5'6" and 145 lbs. I don't think I'm overweight. I'm also really fit. I run and do lots of yoga.

It wouldn't mean too much weight gain or just different sizing that come with different brands and I could easily be a 12 without looking fat. Oh, and I'm a 6 on top - I know, serious pear shape! For dresses I usually wear a 6 or 8 depending on the cut. The number just doesn't mean much.

I think we just learned something about your character.

It all depends on your height. I'm a 10 and am over 6 feet tall, weigh 147 lbs. People always tell me how slim I am.

My friend thinks yes, she says anyone over a 10 is not healthy, especially with today's sizing. I kind of agree, as when I was a 12, I was 30 lbs o er my all time high weight. But my sis is a 12, and I don't think of her as fat, although she could certainly lose weight.

What is your opinion?

Sadly, popular society does not agree.

I'm the PP who wrote this. No, it's not all in my bottom half. I have no tire. My shape is hourglass. I'm not large chested either. I run, but I don't lift weights anymore. Way to judge though. Sorry if you think I'm lying. I'm sitting here in size 12 jeans. In better pants I'm a size 10. Everyone's body proportions are different. Sizing by manufacturers is also all over the place. I know that pre-kids I wore a size 6. But, some clothes were cut super big and I could wear a 2 in pants. I still think they were mislabeled though.

Unless she has a humungo bottom, she is wearing designer (or faux designer, AKA H&M) clothes, and it isn't relevant to this discussion.

They both have the same "do", the kid looks like the mother just farted, and check out the sexy tattoo.

She's on a bike burning off calories, and you're mocking her? DCUM sticks are always telling overweight people to get off the couch, and you're still ridiculing her? You can't win for trying around here. Yeesh.

It depends on your build.
My friend is 140, tall and a size 14.
She has a completely flat stomach, with a huge ass.

I was thinking the same thing. I'm a size 4 who weighs 125 with a muscular build.

No, I am a 31 year old mom who is perilously close to a 12, and just want to see what the average person thought. I'm getting a lot of good answers, don't respond if you don't like it.

Totally depends on height.
