I think everyone measures differently. I've had multiple brands where the waist measurement is different but fit basically the same. Not sure what my exact waist measurement is so not sure what the difference is.
Are you sure you are measuring your waist though, and not closer to your hips? The waist is basically right around your belly button iirc.

probably also depends on whether or not you wear your pants at your "real" waist line.

I'm measuring where my pants fit just at the middle of my belly button.

This thread is not going to end well.... being a big guy myself, I have seen many a larger person get ripped to shreds on ATOT talking about anything to do with a waist line that is larger than 32"....

I don't really care too much about that. I'm loosing weight and wanted to track my measurements and just am a little confused. Most of AT has been really supportive in the Health and Fitness board.

Personally, I have noticed variation in fit as well, even within brand. For example, I'm 5'7", weight 198lbs currently, and wear a 33" waist. Levis 569s in a 33 are loose on me, but 550s are either just right or slightly snug.

Holy crap. I'm 5'10" and 140lbs and I wear 32-33's normally. I have a 31" waist. You're 3" shorter, 60lbs heavier, but wear the same pant size?
However, I have a pair of 33 jeans that are about 3 inches too big around the waist.
