Frame Size: Medium to small. But mostly medium
I know several people are the same weight as I am, but are wearing different sizes, so I wanted to figure out what the differences were. I know part of it is that every body shape is different. For example, I have an hourglass shape, with most of my "curviness" in my lower half. So I'm guessing that accounts for the different sizing. If you have someone who has a body type that doesn't include my thighs and hips, I'm guessing that they would be able to get into smaller clothes. It also helps to kind of see where other loses father out from surgery than I am and are my height and frame size are in terms of stable weight.

You guys are awesome! Thanks so much for the responses!
