What height, weight and size are you?

Saw another thread which inspired this. I'm 5'5, fluctuate between just under and just above 10 stone, and I wear a size 8 on top and size 10 or 12 on the bottom, generally. I don't really have much boobs lol and my hips are quite wide in comparison to everything else. My stomach isnt flat, as in it sticks out a little bit which is my least favourite part of my body but I wouldn't really call myself fat!
What about you?

Still carrying baby weight (DC are 1 & 2).

Currently -

5"7
13st 8lbs
Size 16

Trying to get back to pre-pregnancy -

11st 4lbs (aiming for 11st)
Size 12/14

I'm bottom heavy, thick thighs, bubble butt and wide hips.

5 ft, 3 ins.
9 st 5 lbs.
Size 12-14 on top (36D)
Size 14 bottom.
I’m totally unfit and also suffer from bloating so have been known to buy size 16 as I hate tight waistbands. I’m mystified why people who are the same height and weight are so much slimmer! Perhaps if I was more toned up it would help?

These threads always baffle me. People my height that weigh less than me and wear a bigger size.

I'm 5ft 2
Weight 8st 7 but can go to 8st 12 and not change size.

Size 6 sometimes an 8 on top.

I kind of feel that too reading this. I'm one of the biggest on the thread and it's just compounded my feelings of disgust and shame towards how I've let myself get

5ft 2, weigh about the same as an adolescent hippo and my size is 6 person bell tent.

😂

bellswithwhistles · 05/03/2023 15:55

5:3 - 13 stone I'm ashamed to say and a size 14/16

Normally a size 10/12 at 9stone 10.

Struggling to lose weight - age 50 and it's just piling on smelling food!

IBelieveInAThingCalledScience · 05/03/2023 15:56

No one ever believes my weight, until they see it for themselves on an actual scale.

I'm 1,65cm
68kg
Size 8 (top and bottom)

I worked very hard on my fitness after two pregnancies and focused on body recomposition, so more about losing fat and gaining muscle, rather than losing weight.

We're so much more than that number on the scales

I think I'm almost overweight according to BMI.

roundofapplause · 05/03/2023 15:56

5ft 8. 12st 2. Size 8/10.

I know, the weight and dress size doesn't make sense to me either. I've put about a stone and a half on over the last 3 years but stayed the same dress size 🤷🏻‍♀️

MrsRinaDecker · 05/03/2023 15:57

5’3” tall, 8&1/2 stone, usually a size 8 on top, 10 on the bottom (wish it was the other way around though!) I just turned 40, and up until a few years ago was just below 8 stone and a size 6, but age and lockdown means I gained weight and mostly on my stomach. I’m still fairly happy with my figure, but as I’m fairly small boned I don’t want to get any bigger as it really doesn’t suit my frame.
