How much does a size 2 weigh?

I am 5'3 and want to be a size a 2. I have already lost about 12lbs (121lbs) and am in about a 5/6. Does anyone know any size 2's and what they weigh? I know it also depends on height/frame, but I am very short and small framed. I am looking for a new goal for myself (as long as I remain in the healthy weight range)!

My friend is 5'4 with a delicate bone structure (small frame) and she wears a size 2, sometimes a 4 depending on mfr. She weighs 112. (haha that's less than one side of my body, i'm 230).

PS- (PP here) I think she's a tad underweight even for a small frame. So don't aim for 112 if it will make you underweight. It has health risks just like being overweight.

I'm 5'3" and was in a size 2 in most things at 114 pounds.

(of course, vanity sizing make clothes sizes a relative thing!)

I'm size 2 at Abercrombie, 2 at AE, 0 at Banana Republic, 2 at GAP or a size 26 jeans for all my designer jeans. Wear a size 2 or small to extra small in shirts.

I am a lot heavier than these other girls... so I don't know how I pull that off. But, I am about 118-120lbs and 5'3.5"

PP Here

You mentioned 5/6 which is a juniors size, right? I forgot to mention that all my sizes I mentioned are not in the juniors sections of stores... I would be a 3/4 in juniors because I actually have the hips that most girl don't at their age!

OP here.

Thank you to all of you! I do shop in the juniors section. I just bought a dress from Maurices in a size x-small! I have no idea how that happened. Depending on the brand I wear from a size 4-7, but I don't feel that I am a true size 4. I am trying to challenge myself with a new goal and wasn't sure how low I should go. I am currently 120-121, so I think I'll try for 116 to start and go from there. Again, thanks everyone!

I currently wear most size 2's comfortably and am 5'3.5" tall.

When I was 19 years old and ran for an hour and a half every day, I weighed 118 pounds and had a 25-inch waist and 35-inch hips. That's a size 2 nowadays. I wore 3's in Juniors then (it was in 1999-2000.. I don't know if vanity sizing had kicked in back then).

Nowadays I'm only 107 pounds but am still a size 2. I guess I lost a lot of muscle because I stopped running. I know my fat percentage is pretty high. According to an electric bioimpedance scale, it was 23% when I was 100 pounds a few months ago. It is probably around 27% now.

So...in conclusion, it depends on how much you work out/how much muscle you have. If you're like me and have small, light bones and don't really work out, you'd have to weigh about 107 pounds to comfortably wear size 2. Otherwise, you could weigh up to 120 and still be the same size.

I'm 5'2 and wear a size 2 (womens) comfortably and I weigh 122. I've been in a size 2 since I weighed just under 130. I am older and have had children but I've always thought that my weight doesn't match my size very well. If I get down to my "ideal" body weight I'm liable to be in a size 0 or 00! Maybe I am just "big boned"?

Size 2 weight doesn't have a set weight

Weight is very unimportant. It matters about your body fat percentage and size. I'm a size two pants and wear extra small sized shirts and I'm 145. I'm 5'10 tho. People assume I'm 120 something an if I weighed that, size 00 or 0 would be lose on me.
