If you're 5ft5 at what weight do you feel slim?

[Mifiee]

Am coming to the end of a long weightloss journey and have come further than I originally thought I would and still don't feel quite satisfied.

I'm wondering if I have a warped sense of slim due to the fact I was close to 250lbs for many years.

So I am asking the question above to gauge :)

I’m 5’5. Currently 59kg and feel heavy. Expect to be ‘race weight’ of 54-56kg by late April (marathon training will help there) which is a much better weight for distance running for me

You grow testicles and a penis under 9st??

I’m 5’5” and currently 10st 7lbs, but I’m a size 16. I think I have bird bones, though, because so many other people on these types of threads are around a 12 at that weight. Ideally I’d weigh around 9st 4lbs - that’s the lightest I’ve managed post-breastfeeding, but that was after a period of unhappiness when I felt unable to eat.

10 stone, hovering around 11.5 at the moment.

I think 9st 7 feels ok for me (currently a couple of Ibs over this post holidays).
I'm aiming for 9st though as I have dodgy joints and think it would be easier on them to be abit lighter.

I don't think I will ever feel properly slim though. I'm very toned due to plenty of exercise but I also have lots of loose skin from weight loss which makes you feel flabby no matter what!

I’m 5ft 6
anything between 8.11 9stone
but I’m 8 -8 at the moment and would like to get up to 9stone again
but I can get as high 10 stone and still feel fine

9 stone ish give or take I felt very slim, I had to work very hard to achieve that.

60kg which I think is about 9.5 stone

5’4. 8st 10 - 9st 10.

Much lower and it ruins my face.

5’5” here. In my 20’s I was 47kg so that’s what’s in my head as feeling slim. I’m not quite as low these days but I do trend naturally smaller and I’ve never been over 55kgs even when pregnant.

Guess I'm just built to have the figure of a 12 year old boy.

That's where I feel slim (60kg) - I'm around a size 10 on top and a size 12 on bottom at that weight

Unfortunately I'm about 6kg off that weight at the moment (which makes me a big size 14 on the bottom, close to 16 and a 12 on top)

I'm 5"5. I feel my best at 10 stone but this is due to muscle mass! I can have a lovely strong, firm bottom and abs. I've often looked worse when 9 stone due to not working out. It's so important to build muscle mass, especially as we age as to not lose it and become weak.

My advice - stop fussing about weight and focus on physique. Weight is often really irrelevant and hugely unhelpful.

I’m that height and weigh 12st 4
I’d like to be 10st 7

I’m 5”4 & feel best about 8 stone 12 - 9 stone 1lbs.

currently about 9 stone 3 thanks to Christmas & whilst i’m still a size 8 clothes def not feeling “right” although probably not noticeable to anyone else bar me. A few more pounds & it would be

I like to be below 9st. At 9 and half I start making changes.

Five foot six here and nine stone four - I wouldn't say I feel slim but that's because I have short legs and big boobs which make me look like a blob. I got down to eight stone three (with an eating disorder) five years ago, I looked gaunt and everyone thought I had cancer, but I didn't feel thin because I still had stocky legs and huge tits.

So I'd say it depends on your shape. I have a very small, defined waist, which doesn't show because it's in the shade of the big tits and I run and exercise a lot so I'm pretty toned. But dumpy.

I’m 5 ft 4 and look good at 7 stone 12 (current weight). I have a very small build though (former ballet dancer). Last year I was a stone heavier and looked flabby. Joined Cross Fit last autumn and am in best shape ever. I could probably put on a few pounds now and still look fantastic as it would be mostly muscle (through exercise and clean eating).

I’m about 5’5 and I'm happiest at 60/61kg (about 9 stone 6).Currently 70kg so have cut out carbs and sugar since NY till I’m back at target.

5ft 51/2

I'm 5'4 and three quarters 😂 at 10st ish I'm definitely slim and wear a size 8/10. At 9st9 ish I'm a firm size 8 and look very slim and slender.

I'm about a stone over that ATM as just had a baby and feeling huge and very sorry for myself. Diet begins tomorrow...

ETA I am someone that has a fair bit of muscle from my dancer days.

5.4. 9st dead is my best weight. Currently a couple of pounds over

8st to 8st 2. But I'm small framed.

I'm that height and I hover around 9st 10 and feel happy with that. I can go up to 10st and not notice much difference but 9.10 seems to be my fighting weight 😂 and where my body naturally sits with low grade exercise and a fairly normal diet. I would like to tone up a bit as my core strength is terrible but I wouldn't want to lose weight in the process.

11 stone 4 lbs. I’m very muscular because I train a lot 5/6 times per week. I look very slim at this weight, last time was about 8 years ago 😭😭😭😭 and it is my current weight loss goal.

This is exactly me! I also describe myself as dense! Because at 10st I look really slim and wear an 8 mostly. Yet others my height say they're about 8.5 stone and wear the same size.

The variations are really interesting.
