Posting here for traffic. If you’re 5’8” and around 10st 8lbs what size are you? And what’s your BMI? My bmi is 22 and I’m between a 10 and a 12 but I think I must have a large frame or something cos I thought I’d be an 8-10 at this weight/this bmi

Well I’m slightly shorter (5 foot 7) and lighter at 10 stone 3 and I’m a size 14. I would need to squeeze myself into a 12….

I’m exactly the same measurement and weight as the OP and I’m a 12 bottom and 14 top. No way would I get near a 10!

Another size 11 😀

I'm an inch taller and currently more than half a stone heavier at 11 stone 5. Heaviest I've ever been. Sob. But have small boobs and can still be a 10/12 on top. Currently a definite 12 in jeans.

At your weight, I was probably more 10 leaning than 12 and could get away with a small in some brands for dresses and tops. A lot depends on the brand and cut.

I was an 8/10 at between 9 stone 7 and 10 stone, when I was a teenager/student and during my divorce.

I'm trying to focus on toning up rather than the weight. Mid-40s and an extra half a stone just jumped on virtually overnight earlier this year.

5ft 5/5 10s 7lb and a solid size 12 everywhere I shop. Sometimes I’ll get a 10 or 14 because I prefer the fit.

FFS! People commenting that they don’t believe what size other people are! 🙄 What exactly about body composition is difficult to understand? The underlying judgement about weight and size on here is absolutely disgusting!

meanttobeonhols · Today 21:55

Same height and sitting between 144llbs and 146 llbs. I am a size 12 , sometimes a 10 on top.

My DD is 5 ft 7 and a half inches tall, and she moves between around 10 st 8 pounds and 11 stone 3 pounds. Currently 10 st 10, and is a size 10 on top, and a 12 on the bottom. (28" waist.)

30 years ago she would have been a size 12-14. Quite slim, but quite wide hips and a big-ish booty. (She is very happy with her body though, and so she should be!) Grin

I don’t get this either OP, same height and 9stone 7lb but a size 10/12, but sometimes an 8 (especially on top). I exercise regularly. Honestly, it’s sometimes just your build rather than height/weight. I am more of a pear shape.
