To ask what you weigh if you are 5' 4"?

Just curious to see what others weigh who are the same height as me, and are you happy with your weight?

I'm trying to lose a few pounds so just thinking about all this.

Apologies if I'm being too nosy!

I'm 5 foot 4 and a half. (164cm) Fluctuate around 60kg. Target is 58, but need to get back down to that for the summer!

NoWayNoHow · 25/05/2013 23:05

I'm 5'4", 35yo on Monday and weight 10st1.5.

I'm at the top end of a healthy BMi, so would like to like a to lose a few pounds, but my natural weight over the last couple of years has sat easily between 9st12lb and 10st2lb and I don't think I can go far below that without compromising quite a lot.

I eat really healthily during the week, and relax at the weekend. Trying the 5:2 intermittent fast at the moment to if that helps to shift a few more pounds, but if it doesn't work it won't be the end of the world. Life's too short not to enjoy lovely food and drink (in vague moderation!)

WawaSkittletits · 25/05/2013 23:05

I'm 8 and a half stone. I was quite happy at this weight before having my dd but I'm now a different shape and would like to go down to 8 stone.

HibiscusIsland · 25/05/2013 23:05

12 stone (More than you if you are only wanting to lose a few pounds Smile .) Need to lose a couple of stone so am doing the Fast Diet.

weasle · 25/05/2013 23:05

I'm 5 foot 4 and a half. (164cm) Fluctuate around 60kg. Happiest with 58, but need some hard work to get back down to that for the summer!

cerealqueen · 25/05/2013 23:06

9.5st at my best weight at my current age. I am currently 10st and my clothes don't feel great and as I love my clothes and can't afford to buy new, need to lose half a stone. The clothes thing always does it for me, but I know lots of people who have lots of different sets of clothes for different weights!

weasle · 25/05/2013 23:06

Oops, sorry double post.

PoppyWearer · 25/05/2013 23:07

I am 5ft 3 and weigh 9st 10lbs, currently trying to get back to around 9st 3lbs, which is the weight where I can fit everything nicely but don't look too gaunt in the face. If I go below 9st my face looks awful!

peppersaunt · 25/05/2013 23:08

Am also 9.5 stone and would like to 9. Was 10 about 6 months ago and NOT happy.

23balloons · 25/05/2013 23:09

Around 8-8.5 stone.

lucertola28 · 25/05/2013 23:09

5'3" and 7.2-7.4st but I am underweight because of a thyroid condition (was less than this but managed to get it up to this), before that my normal weight would usually have be between 7.7-7.10st

poorpaws · 25/05/2013 23:12

Im 5ft 4ins and weigh 10sts and I'm old. Was always 8st to 8s. 7lbs when I was young. Would love to lose half a stone and have been trying to do so for months but am failing.

Iwillorderthefood · 25/05/2013 23:13

9st 9lbs, just lost weight, I was heavier when I was younger, but was very fit so had a lot of muscle mass. After two children and no time to exercise in the same way, went to about 10 and a half stone, but recently gone down to my lightest for a long time. I walk six miles a day, but no rock climbing like pre kids. I miss how my body was then, no wobbly bits.

pinktransit · 25/05/2013 23:14

Crikey, you're all tiny!
I'm around 5'3" or 5'4", and according to my scales (first thing in the morning, after a pee and before a cup of tea) am around 10 st 3.

According to slimming world scales on a Monday night at 7.30 pm I'm around 10 st 7 lb.

My aim is 9st 7.

HibiscusIsland · 25/05/2013 23:14

I can't be the only overweight person on Mnet who is 5 ' 4.

Snowflakepie · 25/05/2013 23:14

Normally 9st 2lbs, I have gone below 9st but it was hard to maintain. I feel heavy at 9st 8lbs and if I get there, find clothes don't fit anymore.

At the moment I am 10st 13lbs but at 37 weeks pg that seems fair, although I seriously cannot wait for this critter to be out and I can get back to myself again!

MrsRickyMartin · 25/05/2013 23:16

About 5'3'' and weight 58 kg, which is the same as it was before having DS. Body shape not the same, I am bf so I have big boobs and how can I put this... I could be in the video of 'baby got back' Grin.

Just kidding, but I went up a size wearing trousers/skirts, so I am 10 or 12 depending on the brand. Top size 12 now because of breasts mainly, I still fit into some size 8 dresses.

I am happy with the way I look, but I have to confess I watched carefully what I ate when pregnant and only put on 10 kg.

SgtTJCalhoun · 25/05/2013 23:16

5ft 5, 9 stone. Happiest at 8 stone 10 but not obsessed with getting to it. I'm a size 10 and happy with that.

Musicaltheatremum · 25/05/2013 23:17

I'm obese at the moment at 14st 13. Was16.9 but its coming off. I'm only 49 but lost my husband last year so ate my way up out of comfort.
I would like to be 10 stone as I was 7 years ago but would be happy with 11

monicalewinski · 25/05/2013 23:17

5' 2" so a bit smaller than you, but 11 and half stone. I am quite muscular though as I have a physical job and train a lot so although heavier than most I am not wobbly!

Weight shouldn't be the driving force anyway, it is purely down to how you look and feel and what is not a constant job to maintain.

newbiefrugalgal · 25/05/2013 23:18

69kg here.
Ten heavier than I should be! Grrrrrr

DewDr0p · 25/05/2013 23:19

I'm 5'5". Normally about 9st3 but realised recently that my weight has crept up to 9st10 - I'd feel better without that extra half a stone tbh.

When I was younger I was much much lighter but now I would look too thin much below 9st I think. (I temp went down to that through illness a couple of years ago and had great cheekbones for once but think I was too thin)

singmelullabies · 25/05/2013 23:20

I can't be the only overweight person on Mnet who is 5 ' 4

You're not, Hibiscus. Haven't weighed myself for months, but would be amazed if I was under 12st. Oh well, bring on the Wine Grin

drinkyourmilk · 25/05/2013 23:22

I'm 5.4 and about 14 stone.
Just coming out of depression, so refusing to worry about it.

ColinCaterpillar · 25/05/2013 23:22

8 stone but can happily go to 8 1/2. I'm a size 8, apart from jeans where I'm a bit in between an 8 and a 10

9 doesn't suit my face.
