I am only 4'11" but have a 6 inch wrist, so that makes me big boned. I thought that I might be medium, but I am large boned afterall.

 I'm 5'7.5" and both wrists are just under 6".  Both had been badly broken at one point, so that puts me at small boned.  All though I always considered myself large boned, my size 5 wedding band had me wondering!

thanks, Lee!

Sandy, the ring size kinda gives it away, doesn't it?  Sorry that you've broken both wrists at one time.  Do you get pain in them?

5'6" tall and 6.25" wrist ...so I have a medium frame. My dad is large boned and my mom is teeny tiny so that makes sense for me.

Char, I want to be tall like you when I grow up!  Everytime I go to Kaiser to see my surgeon, I ask them to measure me again to see if I've gotten taller.  I thought maybe yoga and pilates could stretch me....... but NO!  :)

This IS fun!  I've always thought I would be large-boned and angular at a normal weight, mostly because my shoulders are so square - they go straight out from my neck, no sloping or roundness at all (those few times in my life when my weight has been down that is, otherwise they're completely rounded, LOL).  But it turns out I'm small-boned, with a 6" wrist at 5'7' (swear I was 5'8" in my younger days!).

 Kathy, isn't it so fun to learn new things about ourselves?  I really like it.  You must be gorgeous at 5'7".   I'm jealous!  :)

I'm 5'6" with a 6" wrist which means I'm small-boned, which depresses me because that means I should really be 25 pounds less than I am.

ACK!  I can relate.  My WW range is 117 - 146, 146 being for big boned girls.   I'm going to continue to strut around like I have godzilla bones!  Shhhhh, don't tell.  :)
