Is your waist half your weight?

Read online that your waist measurement in inches should be half your weight in kgs... does this pan for everyone?

I'm hourglass and have always been heavier than i look (I'm also overweight and look it atm so I'm not using excuses haha) my weight in kgs is around 76kg (12st) and my natural waist is 32. This seems quite a lot smaller than the 38 that the calculation would suggest, which seems odd when i am so overweight and unfit atm.

Do your measurements fit the calculation? Interested to see if its just rubbish or if I'm an anomaly 🤣

Lol! Apology accepted, no worries. I get touchy when people question my maths. 🤓🤣

So I made a mistake and insulted you, you pulled me up on it I apologised, and you accepted my apology in the spirit intended. Shock Do you think we'll get kicked off Mumsnet?

66kg and waist is about 32/33 so yes! Weird

Mine is quite a bit smaller. I had to google how many inches are in a foot to work it out so maybe it’s time for coffee.

Drat, I need to grow 6 inches taller

Shhhhh!! 🤫🤫 You're going to get us both banned!!

GiraffeInTheSky · 10/05/2022 04:27

I will too if off by saying sorry for being rather rude in my initial response to you.

I guess a lifetime ban for us both is in order. Smile

Hahaa too early to type properly. Back to the coffee problem. 🧟‍♀️☕️
