If your 5'8 and a size 10, how much do you weigh?

That's it really. I'm in the process of loosing weight. I'm currently fitting into the odd size 10 but I'm a pear shape, so jeans shopping is a frustrating affair! I find Next high waisted jeans in a 10 fit well but I'm aware that could be to vanity sizing. So any MN'ers willing to share weight and height would be really helpful.

Not any more but think I was about 9 1/2 /10st.

Georgethesecond · 03/04/2015 09:26

5'8" 8 st 7
That's size 8/10
When I was 9 st I was a 10

nochocolateforlentteacake · 03/04/2015 09:26

Just under 9 stones. Don't know what that is in new money.

RonaldMcDonald · 03/04/2015 09:26

Ug ...I'm a bit taller than you and weigh 10, 5 today
I thought I was a bit fatter than that but maybe today is a fluke day
I wear a 10-14 depending of shoulders ribs tits
I am most often a 10 in bottoms

Georgethesecond · 03/04/2015 09:27

Sorry - I mean a 10 everywhere, not just Next/ M and S/ Tesco which all have massive sizes IMO.

Pippioddstocking · 03/04/2015 09:27

8 stone 13 . Next size 10 I've always found much bigger than other shops though , even their 8 is big on me but I'm certainly a 10-12 in other high street shops

nottheOP · 03/04/2015 09:30

9.5 stone for me

ACSlater · 03/04/2015 09:31

Size 10 bottom 8-10 top
5'8 10st 10lbs

ZaraW · 03/04/2015 09:33

I'm 5'9" and weigh 135 pounds

Rocksie · 03/04/2015 09:34

5'7.5" (slightly shorter). I weigh 9.5stones and wear size 10.

mynameisnotmichaelcaine · 03/04/2015 09:35

I am usually in a 10 anything up to about 10 stone 5. Depends on the fit though, am pear shaped.

LipstickandHeels · 03/04/2015 09:39

Thank you for your replies, really helpful. I kinda guessed the next sizing was a bit off. Even at my smallest (size 6) I found it tricky to find jeans that fit my hips. I'm 10 stone '4 currently. I ideally want to be able to go into most shops in the confidence a size 10 will fit!

I'm 5'10" and would have to be sub 10 stone to be a 10, maybe 9.5/9?
Am a 12 at a muscular 10.5

CoconutAmericano · 03/04/2015 09:43

It's funny how you could be taller and weigh less than someone else but still be a size bigger! I'm 5'9" and weigh 10 st 4 lbs and am a 12, actually I can be a 14 in some jeans. I guess it's down to body shape? Im a pear. No tits, slight on top, decent sized hips and bum though Grin

LipstickandHeels · 03/04/2015 10:20

Exactly. I know being a pear it's about balancing your top and bottom and clothes to avoid. I'm a 34d and balconnect bras are my friend

Yy to balconet bras. Give a bit of oomph to my teardrop tits Sad

Enb76 · 03/04/2015 10:24

It depends on your shape, I'm a little taller than you and am a 10 between the weights of 9.10 and 10.5 st. Below that and I am an 8/10 and above that I am a 10/12. At 11 st I am a definite 12.

louwn · 03/04/2015 10:35

I am 8/10 (10 round hips but smaller waist) and I weigh about 9 and a half stone, probably fluctuate 3 lbs either way.

louwn · 03/04/2015 10:36

Meant to say there that I am bang on 5ft 8!

Truckingalong · 03/04/2015 11:10

At 5.8 and 10.4, I bet you're not a 34 bra!

bigTillyMint · 03/04/2015 11:13

I am 5'8" and was a 10 at 10 stone or just under. I am also a 34, but an A not a D - very broad back!

LipstickandHeels · 03/04/2015 11:14

I recently had a bra fitting and its a comfortable fit....unless you can recommend another size ??

WellHurrahAndHuzzah · 03/04/2015 11:15

I'm 5ft8, size 10 in most shops but 8 in Next etc. I weigh between 9 & 9.5 stone x

LipstickandHeels · 03/04/2015 11:49

Thank you for all your comments. I now have a better idea what weight I want to be.

FrankieFrankie · 03/04/2015 11:52

Pregnant at the moment but I'm 5 foot 8 and I usually weigh 9 stone and am a size 10. Hope I can get back to it - currently more like 11 stone!
