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!

Oh if it's for cake in saying 10st 13

BalloonSlayer · 11/09/2020 21:38

I'd say 12 stone 4lbs.

missyB1 · 11/09/2020 21:38

Dh is a Dr he’s guessing about 65 - 70kg

BalloonSlayer · 11/09/2020 21:39

Noooooooo !!!!@Wigeon
I meant 11st 4lbs !!!!

blackberryjelly · 11/09/2020 21:39

11 stone. Based on the fact that is right in the middle of the healthy weight band for someone who is 5ft 10.

BalloonSlayer · 11/09/2020 21:40

Where did @Wigeon come from? Cor blimey!

Lobsterquadrille2 · 11/09/2020 21:41

11 stone 6.

For those saying they only weigh in kg, does that include newborn babies?

bellsbuss · 11/09/2020 21:44

12 stone

Phrowzunn · 11/09/2020 21:46

My DH is 5ft 8in and a 32” waist and he is about 10 stone 10lbs so I’m going to guess a little over 11 stone, maybe 11 and a half? If we guess the weight correctly do we win cake or do we win your husband..?

Arthersleep · 11/09/2020 21:46

Is there a prize for the closest answer? (A bit like the guess how many sweets in the jar at the school fair game).

TheChosenTwo · 11/09/2020 21:52

I’d say around 13 stone, I haven’t looked at the answer or read the other responses yet Grin

IseeIsee · 11/09/2020 22:03

12 stone 4lbs

NavyBerry · 11/09/2020 22:04

85 kg

Premiumbond · 11/09/2020 22:05

12 stone

Ilovesausages · 11/09/2020 22:08

I guess 12 1/2 stone. That’s based on my DH who looks kinda similar.

Graffitiqueen · 11/09/2020 22:09

13 stone. I'm 5'9" and that's what I weigh.

Deadringer · 11/09/2020 22:09

12 stone

SomethingOnce · 11/09/2020 22:10

11st 8lbs

Does the closest guess win him? It’s just that I’ve already got one, thanks all the same Grin

User478 · 11/09/2020 22:13

When you guess the right weight for the cake you get to keep the cake... Just saying.

11.10

motorcyclenumptiness · 11/09/2020 22:16

About 2.5 labradors or 3/4 of a St Bernard

DistinguishedCarrot · 11/09/2020 22:17

He's a little bit taller than my dp and looks a bit slimmer so, weight wise he's probably similar so about 11 to 12 stone i'd say.

Wigeon · 11/09/2020 22:17

Definitely prizes! . Not sure you’d get to win him, I think he quite likes living here 😆. Also got a problem identifying a winner with multiple guesses of “er, 11-12 stone?” Who set up this completion anyway?!

My favourite comments so far have been @Midnightsky1, who clarified that her response is “literally a guess” (glad the other responses are more scientific), and @dudsville, who was at pains to point out that strangers guessing a weight from a photo on the internet might not be a very accurate way of knowing someone’s weight Smile
