This is weird.

thank you!
im 5’8, 39, 75 kg and a size 12 sometimes 14.
I think I have plantar fasciitis and I thought it could be because I’m heavy?
I’d like to be 65kg, I was around that for most of my 30s, and have been (pre kids) 55kg. That probably wasn’t healthy. I’d be happy with 60kg. I don’t like how I look now, I’m not losing sleep over it just want to do/be better

Well, crap, I should have read the whole thread first before commenting. I wasn't far off on the height though. You look really good, but now that I've read more of the thread (up to this post), I will say that the jeans cut is unkind to your crotch area, as a PP mentioned.

What hits me the most, as I said above, your arms are awesome looking and you look so fit and healthy!

greenbeansnspinach · 14/09/2023 21:16

Those jeans look great!

Namechange423 · 14/09/2023 21:17

Size 12
age 33?
weight 11 stone 5lb
height 5 foot 6

Highdaysandholidays1 · 14/09/2023 21:19

you look great to me, toned arms, nice figure, could look better in nicer clothes. Those guessing much bigger/heavier, I am that bigger size and absolutely the OP does not look like me!

Crikeyalmighty · 14/09/2023 21:24

I was going to guess

5 ft 6
40
Size 12-14
74 kg

SpeedbirdSquawker · 14/09/2023 21:28

You look good. Size 14 and age in your forties?

LittleChilliBean · 14/09/2023 21:31

Firstly you have an amazing figure!

I'm a size 12 and would have guessed that you were a 10 from the photo.

Riotact · 14/09/2023 21:37

38ish. I’d say you are a size 12 but sometimes get away with a 10 on top

Doodar · 14/09/2023 21:37

You look great, good arms.

Riotact · 14/09/2023 21:37

FWIW I think you look great

Forgottenmypasswordagain · 14/09/2023 21:38

Size 12, cannot tell age with seeing neck & face.
If you are trying those jeans on, I recomend not buying them. They dò not flatter and they bring attention to the crotch.

Forgottenmypasswordagain · 14/09/2023 21:39

Forgot to say, you look fine and need not worry about weight.

Do you wear flat shoes a lot? Wearing shoes with a small heel will help a lot with the plantar fasciitis, as it takes the pressure off the tendons that run along the sole of your foot. You could also have tight achilles, so try massaging your calf muscles.

It won't be anything to do with weight.

Plantar fasciitis is often caused by walking too far in silly little flat sandals or ballerina type pumps on hard outdoor surfaces. I got it after jogging on pavements in worn out trainers that didn’t support my feet.

Instead of obsessing about your weight (you’re not even slightly overweight BTW) get yourself some decent quality shoes with proper arch support, and/or some arch support insoles. Also look up exercises to relieve the plantar fasciitis, such as calf stretches. If necessary get a physio to look over your exercise routine and suggest some modifications.

THIS!

NumberForty---great info!

GoingDownLikeBHS · 14/09/2023 21:40

You look completely normal and absolutely fine, what on earth is wrong with you? Why are you so negative about yourself? Do you realise you are doing it? Is it some sort of bizarre stealth boast? Worrying.

itsmylife7 · 14/09/2023 21:41

Those jeans / trousers are an awful design.
Don't buy them.

Thatcat · 14/09/2023 21:43

OP, what’s the point of this other than getting a hurtful comment from someone?
you look great, leave it at that and delete the thread.

Lesina · 14/09/2023 21:45

weight:- 19 stone 6
size:- 36
age:- 790 years

or alternatively you could step on a scale, check the labels in your clothes and look at your birth certificate…

AliceS1994 · 14/09/2023 21:45

30-40
Size 12-14 maybe 65-70kg?

Fixyourself · 14/09/2023 21:45

32, size 12, 10.5 stone

Ricky10 · 14/09/2023 21:48

It is your shoes that have caused your foot problem love

Robinni · 14/09/2023 21:48

Around 40, size 10/12, about 10-11st, 5ft6-8

Robinni · 14/09/2023 21:51

If that is Zara you’re shopping in it’s very small fitting, for waifs. Same as H&M. Do not let European stores make you feel bad. The women the sizing is based around are like miniature fairies.
