Sizes, weights and body shapes and all

I am just fascinated by the difference in sizes, weights and so on that I read about on here.

I am 5 ft 1 inch tall and now weigh 150 lbs.  I am definitely an apple shape.  I can now wear a size 12 petite or a large or extra large top and a medium on the bottom.  Yet I will read that someone who is say 5'5 can wear a 10 or an 8 and weigh say 170.  Ohyeah, I am also old, lol.  Will turn 66 on Wednesday so that probably has something to do with it too!  

Anyone want to post sizes and body shapes for comparisons?

I am always amazed at sizes as well. It's so odd how someone who weighs the same can be 1,2, or 3 sizes different then the next person.

I'm 5'3" and currently weigh 117. I wear a 3/4 in junior jeans, a 2P in misses. I wear a med. or a large top depending on the maker and the cut. A small in leggings. dresses vary from a small-med or anywhere from a 4-6 again all depending on the cut.

The following pic is at 119 and a size large in juniors dress.

The following pic is a size 3 jeans and med. top at 123 pounds.

You are one sexy mama!  Unreal how tiny you are.  Such an inspiration but I honestly do not think I will get much below a 10.  We'll see. :)

Im 5'6", 116 lbs, 42 years old, and at this very moment the jeans I have on are a size 1 jr, and the t-shirt is a size small, but I have other jeans that are 00, 0, 2, and even a pair of 3's that fit... and same with tops, I have some XS, S, and M. I guess it just depends on the brand, and if they are vanity sized... As for my body shape, I'd call it a 12 year old boy! LOL

Just gorgeous!  My stars but you look so fantastic!  Fun to see how wonderful all you ladies look.  Doesn't that just prove that we are crazy to worry about numbers on the scale and sizes.  WE are all so different. Love it.  Congrats!

I weigh 167, I'm 5'5" and I wear an 8 or 10 pants and a M or L top. I am 54 and exercise 5-6 days a week and lift heavy weights. I had a body composition test done in a BodPod at the University and I'm 21% body fat and 79% lean body mass. That's the main reason I can wear the size I do and weigh what I weigh (I also wear a size 10 shoe and have a large frame -- no one would mistakenly call me dainty ~grin~).

Man, see, that is unbelievable.  I would never guess that you weigh 167!  You look amazing and how healthy you are!  You look like an Olympian!  I would also be shocked by your age.  Congrats to you.  You really look terrific.

I do not know much about women's sizes for what they wear, my wife is 5 feet tall and is a size 4. She is 70 and been thin all her life. I have smaller pants than I did when I graduated from High School. I went from a size 54 pants to a 32 inch waist pants now. But I bet if women's cloths are like men's you can find that the size varies by manufacturer. Some at the same size on the label fit differently so I am not so caught up on sizes as I am on how I feel and look.
