I look horrible in yoga pants and most types of jeans due to my build--Stocky, muscular legs and 5'4".
As a size 12-- I'd be a house.
Yes, you would, because you are short. Someone who is 6' and size 12 might still look decent, because of her height and proportions.
It all depends on one's height and body composition.
I agree! My sister is 4 inches taller and wears bigger size and looks much thinner.
That's what you think.

My waist is smaller in comparison with my butt and boobs. I wear a medium or a large shirt, depending on the brand. My boobs are a 36 c. That's the honest truth. I am very conscious of muffin tops, I don't ever want to wear something that makes me have one... So seeing that people on here weigh a LOT less than I do, but wear the same size, surprises me. Just thought I'd give an honest answer for people on here to go off of. At my absolute skinniest I weigh 165 and my parents and friends start worrying because they think I am not eating at all and am too skinny. At that weight I wear a ten, and mediums more often than larges.
You're 5'6 and at 165 your friends and family worry that you're too skinny? LOL c'mon
They think you are too skinny at 165??? They must be fat to say this.
