AIBU?
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 5'4", 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!)

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!

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.

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.

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!

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' .
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.

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.

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)
