Guess how much DH weighs

So I am going to add DH (with his permission!) to the Zoe app which is helping researchers track what’s going on with Covid in real time (you report whether you feel well/unwell every day).

However, to add him I need to state his weight and he hasn’t weighed himself in about 20 years. We don’t own scales. His trousers waist measurement is usually 32”/34”, and he’s about 5’9”/5’10” tall.

Anyone any idea? I literally don’t even have a ballpark idea of what an adult male of his build /height weighs!

no idea. could he go to those scales you get at pharmacys/tesco etc

QueenMabby · 11/09/2020 20:49

My dh has similar measurements and is about 11 stone.

Polkasquare · 11/09/2020 20:49

80kg

pinkbalconyrailing · 11/09/2020 20:50

he's got s significant belly, though slim-ish legs.
85kg would be my guess.
but get some scales.

This method is going to be quite inaccurate. I don't use the app, but if his weight is one of the useful details the app needs then just pop in to Boots on his way to work tomorrow?

WatchoutfortheROUS · 11/09/2020 20:52

I wouldn't say he has a "significant belly" Hmm

I'd guess 80kg?

Sexnotgender · 11/09/2020 20:52

11/12 stone?

ShakespearesSisters · 11/09/2020 20:54

My husband is a few inches taller and is 11st3.

Dowser · 11/09/2020 20:54

12 stone

BloggersBlog · 11/09/2020 20:54

11 stone 10

Jontysmum · 11/09/2020 20:54

12 st 5

tinkerbellvspredator · 11/09/2020 20:54

My DH is same height but slimmer and we think 11-11.5

Mustardbay · 11/09/2020 20:55

He hasn't got a belly, poor bloke. 12.5 stone?

DH is 6 foot 1 and slightly leaner and he is 89kg

I would guess 83kg because he is slightly shorter

Smellbellina · 11/09/2020 20:57

Significant belly 😂 alright love.

12.5 stone I reckon.

Wigeon · 11/09/2020 20:58

@dudsville “this method is going to be quite inaccurate” - I was really hoping someone could come up with his weigh to the nearest gram from this photo! Oh well! 😉😆

anxietrist · 11/09/2020 20:59

I'd say 12 stone

beautifulxdisasters · 11/09/2020 21:00

I'd also guess 11 stone something. 11 stone 6 to 10 maybe?

If you think that's a significant belly you want to see mine Hmm Grin

ItchyScratch · 11/09/2020 21:01

I’m 5’9 and thinner than him. I’m 11.5
So I would say he is 12-12.5 stone

Notashandyta · 11/09/2020 21:01

11- 12 stone

Wigeon · 11/09/2020 21:01

@Butterer re “guess the weight of the cake competition” - I could actually get him to go round a neighbour’s in the morning to get weighed (assuming most people have bathroom scales?) - maybe I should and then I can award a prize to the nearest guess?! I mostly just wanted to add him to the app tonight before I forgot, but could actually get him properly weighed and then we’d all know!

Chicchicchicchiclana · 11/09/2020 21:02

I don't think you need to be accurate to within the pound. I would say 12 stone.

Notashandyta · 11/09/2020 21:02

In that case I will guess 11 stone 10 pounds Grin

Midnightsky1 · 11/09/2020 21:02

12 stone? Literally a guess.
