I'm 5'7", 160 lbs and the medium is plenty roomy. Don't go large. I wear it under a Mountain Hardwear Terra Jacket which doesn't look like it has enough room for such a puffy layer underneath, but it feels fine and the combo is super-warm.

I'm 5'9 and 165-170 and I can wear a size medium in this as a mid-layer under a hardshell. It's not particularly tight on me, so I think with a belly you should still be able to wear this in a size medium. If you are wearing a size Large shell, then you could probably buy a large in this too, but if you are using a size medium shell, definitely go with a medium for this jacket.

Without knowing your exact measurements, I would lean towards the medium. The down sweater has their "regular" cut/fit which tends to be a bit more roomy.

Best bet is to go off the sizing chart. Based on height I recommend you a medium. However, your measurements will dictate which size you should go for. A large will definitely give you more layering room.
