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

[LipstickandHeels]

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.

I guess it depends on how baggy you like things to be, and what you like to wear too. I have a tiny waist and rib cage, so despite weighing more than lots of you, I tend to wear 50s shaped dresses, so my large hips are less of an issue, and a 12 would drown me. If I tried to wear skin tight trousers, I might struggle.

Have you measured underneath your ribcage Lipstick? With a soft tape measure, pulling it nice and snug. I bet you're a 30 or 32. I'll eat my shorts if I'm wrong!!

I'm 5'8 and currently weigh 9 stone 3. This is making my normal size 10 jeans (crew, gap,) decidedly snug. Normally weigh 8st 12 ish....can't seem to stop eating...willpower seems to diminish with age!

5" 8 and 9.5 stone.size 8 to 10.

I'm 5'8", wear a size 10, and weigh 10.8 stone. (Not sure how to write that since I usually use kg.) And I wear a 34D bra, recently measured as I'm nursing an 8 month old.

I'd say I have a slim figure 8 shape. None of the other body shapes seem to be appropriate.

I like Gap's "curvy" jeans. I think they fit nicely on my butt, which most don't.

I'm 5'8 and generally weigh 9st 4. Sometimes a pound or so either way. I'm an 8-10 on top and 10 on the bottom. Have no boobs and I'm definitely pear shaped. My waist is 26 inches. Hips at least 10 inches bigger I think.

Anything below 9.5 stone and I'm a small 10, a 27 waist in most jeans.
Recently went up to 10 stone 5 and I was a 12.

5ft 8 and 10st 10lb to wear a 10. Just tipped over to 11st 3lb and now wear a 12.

5'7.5 and 9 stone 8ish and wear an 8-10, occasionally 12 in small brands. I'm big boned and athletic/straight up and down build.

I'm 5ft 7.5 and weight. 9st 3lb - am a very large size 10 but take a 6 to. 8 on the top. I was a size 8 when I weighed 8.5 stone - but I did not l

Healthy!! Sent too soon -and I'm a small build.

10 stone-ish gets me into a size 10. I am heavier than that at the moment. I have a small frame though, so I have quite a bit of extra padding as a 10. And even more now i am a generous 12...

I'm 5ft 10in and was a size 14 on the bottom (16 in Levi's) and 10 on top at 11st 8lb and I'm also a size 14 on the bottom and 10 on the top at 10st 3lb! Very confusing but guess that's what comes with being a pear shape

By figure 8 I do mean hourglass.

So, I went and tried lots of jeans yesterday. Gap & Levi's etc. Levi fitted me at 28 ( after I tried on 29, baggy) and Gap a 10. My only dilemma was length! 32 leg way too short, 34 leg I needed another opinion ( shop assistant s were rather busy). My quest continue s!

Truck- I will dig out a tape measure....admittedly it was M&S?!

Coconut- we have very similar body shapes.

Tops I have no problem finding, anything from size 6 to a to a 10 mostly 8's. Must stop buying stripy tops, embarrassing levels!

I'm 5ft 8, 10st exactley and a size 12. I did the mumsent bra intervention and changed from a 34b to a 30c, I now have boobs :)

Personally I don't think weight is very reliable at all for what size you will be, these threads prove that.
I probably weigh more than my size 8 jeans would suggest but I exercise a lot so I am reasonably toned.

I'm 5'10, weigh 10.5 stone and am size 14, I do have broad shoulders, large ribcage and large hipbones, though and a thigh gap but that is because I have a large frame, I could never be size 10, however much weight I lost even though I look fairly slim as I haven't much fat.

It's funny how you could be taller and weigh less than someone else but still be a size bigger!

Doesn't really depend on your shape, more on your body composition. Fat is lighter than muscle and takes up more space... so if you're light but big, you probably have a relatively high body fat percentage.

I am 5'8, size 8-10, jeans size 26, 9 stone 8, medium sized boobs, 15% body fat.
