Name changed to remain anonymous for this sensitive topic.

Just under 5ft5 and 9 stone- what would you imagine this woman’s body/appearance was like? What would you think?

Just trying to get a sense of what the public en masse would imagine with these stats.

Thank you all Flowers

Impossible to say, if they were toned muscular would look completely different to if they were not

@Pipandmum...interesting! What weight would you think is a size 8 or size 10 at 5ft5?

Slim, size 8
I'm 2 inches shorter and feel good at 9 stone.

Slim and size 8-10. Going off my own height and body weight in the past, at a size 12 i was roughly 10.5-11st.

I’m about 5 6” and 8 stone 3 lbs and a size 8. So I imagine you’d be a size 10?

I'm 5' 4 & weigh 10 stone (I know this because I'm starting Couch to 5k tomorrow and had to put my weight in the app!). I'm a size 12, but am fairly slender - it's my (post 3 children) hips that put me at a 12. I'd guess much the same for your example.
Also according to DD(3) my arms are squishy. Lovely.

My daughter is 5’ 6” and 10 stone and is size 12-14. So maybe at 9 stone a 10-12. That was what I based it on. But it so depends on build. You can look at two people same height and weight and they could be a couple sizes different.

Dress sizes don't mean anything. My sister is much thinner than I am at a size 12. She's broad and well muscled. I'm not.

Probably they look like taller than they actually are at these stats

Slim. Looking good in pretty much any kind of clothes.

Depends on build and muscle tone but I would say about a 6 or an 8. I'm tiny at that weight but have a very small build.

Size 8 to 10.

Size 10 roughly but depends on build/bust size etc

When I was 9 stone (4 years ago) I was a small size 8, but I'm 5'9". I'd say 9st at 5'5" would be a solid size 12.

Slim size 10.

Interesting to hear so many say a 12!

I’m a solid 10 (8 in vanity sizes like M&S, Phase 8 etc.) with stats of 33-27-34 (and skinny legs lol). Waist is my misery point (hence the username 😂)

I would never have said 12. I'm a 12 and weigh 10.5 stone and 5'3

Agree @Bigbopboo but I guess it just shows we are all different builds!
