5 ft 10 how much do you weigh?

Inspired by the 5 ft 3 thread.
Prior to lockdown I was 10 and a half stone and pretty strict with myself diet wise. I am now 11 stone and more relaxed and can't decide whether to try to loose half a stone or stick with where I am now.

5ft10 and 9st 10/11lbs ish. Have weighed nearly the same pretty much my entire adult life - started out at 9st 7lbs ish and gained a permanent lb or two after each of my 3 children. Am fairly athletic but exercise doesn’t change my weight (I did gain a few lbs of muscle when heavy weight training), just my body shape - everything gets firmer and less jiggly! Don’t watch my weight at all but also don’t have a particularly huge appetite and do a lot of running around (busy life & lots of excess energy! Size 8/10. Happy in my own skin & don’t generally give weight much head space, on myself or other people.

I'm now 10st 5 which is the heaviest I've been. A healthy weight but personally I'd like to lose a few pounds as my clothes are feeling tight.

Sunflowrr · 09/07/2020 20:48

I'm 5'9.5" and 163lbs

I feel pretty overweight lol

otterbaby · 09/07/2020 20:48

5'9" and 9.6 stone. I sit at that weight naturally and have a really fast metabolism, although I do eat pretty healthily and do yoga once a week. Although I'm pregnant now so that's out the window!

I'm astonished at how light everyone is at 5'10! I'm this height and I currently weigh 12st8, which is a bit overweight (I was trying to do something about this, but then I got pregnant again...) but at my lightest I'd still be one of the heaviest on the thread - at 11st7, which is the lightest I've been in the last few years, I'm a size 10. In my early 20s I was 11 stone, a size 8 and people commented constantly on how slim I was. I honestly don't think I could go below that without starving myself.

I am 5 foot 9 and a half. I went up a few pounds to 10 st 7 towards the start of lockdown. I then started logging on My Fitness Pal and am down to 10 stone, which I find quite hard to maintain!

The most I have weighed when not pregnant is 11 stone - then I got campylobacter food poisoning which took me down to 9 and a half stone! The least I have weighed as a proper adult is 9 stone, when I had terrible depression.

earlydoors42 · 09/07/2020 20:57

I was a size 14-16 when i was 11 stone!

Hardbackwriter · 09/07/2020 21:06

I guess we are very differently shaped, earlydoors - I'm a size 14 at 12st8!

MonsteraCheeseplant · 09/07/2020 21:10

I'm 5 foot 9 and a half and 10 stone. At the start of lockdown I was at my heaviest yet - 11 stone 7, size 12-14.

PaulRobinsonsWoodenLeg · 09/07/2020 21:11

I'm 5'9 and my weight generally fluctuates between 9st 7 and 10st. I've been 11st 5 at my heaviest and 8st 10 at my lowest, but I feel comfortable at 9st 7.

Hardbackwriter · 09/07/2020 21:12

Now wondering if I'm madly delusional! This is me and I don't think I look all that huge, but maybe I'm kidding myself...

5ft 8 and I weight 9st 5, which is the heaviest I've ever been (apart from when I was pregnant), I've stopped drinking wine in the week and buying chocolate so I should drop back to my normal 8 and a half stone.

Jammydodger6 · 09/07/2020 21:19

5ft 6 and I’m 9st8. 1lb over pre lockdown weight but I have been losing weight recently with running and watching what I eat. I was 9st13 a month ago!

JorisBonson · 09/07/2020 21:21

Was going to reply to this thread with my weight but now I've seen what everyone else weighs I'll just go and find solace in a cream cake.

SauvignonBlanketyBlank · 09/07/2020 21:21

5ft 10 and 11st 8 although I'm trying to get back to 10st 7

ureterr1blemuriel · 09/07/2020 21:22

@Hardbackwriter you have a lovely figure.

I’m 6’ with a medium-large frame but skinny legs. Currently weigh 12st 10 (size 14) has slowly crept up after 2 DC from wedding weight of 11st 7 (when I was slim and toned - size 12).

Would like to get back down to 12 st and planning on getting into the gym as soon as I can.

I’ve not weighed 9 stone since I was about 13 - my bones would never allow that!

Hardbackwriter · 09/07/2020 21:26

This is me at 11st, aged 21 (with a now long-gone boyfriend!) - I just can't imagine being two stone lighter than this (not that I'll ever weigh this again, either!)

11st 4lb and my size 12s are VERY tight now. They fit perfectly when I'm 10st 7lb.

RubertRoo · 09/07/2020 21:32

I am just under 6ft and currently weigh about 11st7 and look healthy. Pre baby I used to be about 9st7 and looked far too thin for my height. I am about a size 10-12 now and look a lot healthier

DontBiteTheBoobThatFeedsYou · 09/07/2020 21:32

The first post is
"I'm 5'7""

That's so very helpful to absolutely no one.

If a thread titled "how do you get a dog to fetch your slippers"
You wouldn't answer "I'm not sure but I do have a hamster and he has fur. Not sure how helpful that is."

Snigletted · 09/07/2020 21:57

I'm 11stone, nearly 5ft10. I definitely need to lose a bit, I've had to buy new trousers this summer, XL and size 14. I want to be able to wear my normal clothes again! I've been advised that I need to try to aim for the lower end of BMI to reduce the risk of needing new knees in the future (recent accident, so high risk)

byvirtue · 09/07/2020 21:57

5ft 10’ and weigh 9st9lb size 10 mid/late 30s. I barely fluctuate from that lowest I got was 9st for my wedding and I loved it but I was forever hungry!

byvirtue · 09/07/2020 22:00

@Hardbackwriter are your scales right? You look great to me!

Iminaglasscaseofemotion · 09/07/2020 22:02

I'm 5ft 10 and at my lightest I was very skinny, probably 9 stone but I was young and had an eating disorder. I ballooned to 13 stone when I was about 20 then went down to 11. I went between 11 and 11and a half for about 7 years then went up to just over 12.
I would love to get back to under 11 stone but I just can't seem to do it.
