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!

Oh dress size, I wear size 12 tops and I am an annoying size on bottom.. 12-14. My legs a thick muscle coz 'I work ouuuut' Wink

Been under 7 stone and over 11 though through ED's. I think I am above my 'natural' weight and would be more comfortable around 9 stone or a loose size 12!

vvviola · 26/05/2013 02:21

I'm 5 foot 4 and 72kg (so, 11 stone 3) down from 81 kg (12 stone 6?) this time last year.

I've gone a little off track recently with study and non-sleeping child, but I'm aiming for about 65kg (60kg would probably be closer to my ideal, but I need to be realistic, due to my inability to pass a biscuit Wink)

joanna1990marie · 26/05/2013 03:15

8 and a half stone, and that was just right. Not to thin but athletic looking. Now at 12 stone! But I am coming up to 40 weeks preggo!

joanna1990marie · 26/05/2013 03:17

I was also a dress size 8, sometimes 6 and sometimes 10 depending on the shop.

concernedmate · 26/05/2013 04:30

5ft 4" and weight just under 13 stone, lost half a stone in the last few weeks, not the best at dieting, but trying :)

EggsMichelle · 26/05/2013 04:55

5ft 4, and about 11st. Currently at slimming world to get back pre pregnancy 9.7.

Lawabidingmama · 26/05/2013 06:30

5'4 and 9 st 7 want to lose 10 lb to get back to Pre DC weight

BiscuitMillionaire · 26/05/2013 06:34

5'3" (and a half) and 8 stone 11, 56 kilos

TobyLerone · 26/05/2013 06:55

5'4", 35, 11st 7lbs, size 14.

LaundryLegoLunch · 26/05/2013 06:56

I'm currently 148lbs (so 10 stone 8) but in January I was 182 lbs (13 stone) so I'm happy with the direction I'm going. I cannot believe just how much difference losing this much weight has made to how I look and feel.

I am staggered by the clothes sizes variations on this thread. My lowest adult weight was 9 stone (pre-kids gym bunny) and I was never less than a size 12. Admittedly I'm not short of norkage but still Confused.

DorothyMantooth · 26/05/2013 07:02

5'4 and used to weigh 61-63kg before DD (size 10). I always wanted to lose a few lb but never made much of an effort (love food too much!). In hindsight I think I could have been a little more toned but that was my natural weight.

Would love to know what I weigh now, 9 wks after giving birth, but seem to have mislaid the scales ... Sure there is some psychological reason for this!

TeWiSavesTheDay · 26/05/2013 07:40

I'm normally 7st7lb - which is a healthy bmi.

Currently pregnant though, i'll be about 10st7lb by the end if previous pgs are anything to go by!

catuxa · 26/05/2013 07:52

5'3", around 58 kilos, I'm 42 so less than 57k and I personally find that my face doesn't look good. When I was in my 20's I was around 54-55 kilos.
Currently size 10 on top and 10-12 bottom

carabos · 26/05/2013 07:53

5ft 4 size 8, 8 and half stone, age 50 next month. Never weighed 9st other than when pg and would like to lose 5lb to be my perfect weight.

passmetheprozac · 26/05/2013 07:59

I'm 5ft6, weigh 14st and am a size 16. I've lost 2st already. I used to be 9 and a half stone and I looked gaunt, my fighting weight is about ten and a half stone.

lainiekazan · 26/05/2013 08:07

5'3 and a (very important) half and currently weigh 8st 3. I still look a bit podgy though as I have a very small build. A few years ago I went down to 7st and finally my legs were shapely -but I had the face of an aged hag.

EhricLovesTeamQhuay · 26/05/2013 08:07

5'4" 12st 2lb, size 14 (16 in jeans)
I have never been under 10st but I would like to lose at least a stone.

ohcomethefuckon · 26/05/2013 08:13

70kg 165 and I'm v normal looking at size 12/14.

ExasperatedSigh · 26/05/2013 08:15

5'3" and currently about 10st - my size 12s are feeling a bit tight. Was 9.5st a little while back and want to get back there again, or even down to 9st, as it's a more comfortable weight for me. Went all the way up to 11.5st between DCs and don't want to go there again.

I was 8-8.5st through my teens and early 20s...looked great then but think I would look too bony on that now.

unapologetic · 26/05/2013 08:19

I am 5ft 4 and weigh just over 8 stone. Always been the same since I was 15, give or take a few pounds. I am naturally slim and like the feeling of it.

Mimishimi · 26/05/2013 08:44

I am 143lbs so just over 10 stones. It gives me a BMI of 24.5 which is too heavy for my liking. I look best at around 9 stones or 126lbs. I am coming down from a top of 188lbs after the birth of my second...that was really depressing.

katkit1 · 26/05/2013 08:47

I'm 5.5 and am 12 stone - 6 months post baby.

Normal weight - for me - is 11 stone.

Riddo · 26/05/2013 08:56

5 foot 4 in.
Usually 9 st 4 but 8.10 at the moment as DH recently lost his job and I lose weight with stress.
I'm 47.

I was 23 when 1st DH died and went down to 6 1/2 stone and looked like a skeleton. Most I've ever weighed was 11 1/2 stone at 40+10 with DS.

MrsMagpieCovetsShinyThings · 26/05/2013 09:03

I'm 5'4 and 104kg, which is 6kg less than before I was pregnant, baby is now 9 weeks old.

Pregnancy has been the best diet ever for me as I lost weight without even trying, and so far breastfeeding has kept me the same. I'm a clothes size 16/18.

Now if I could stop devouring those chocolate digestives I'm sure I can loose more. Want to get down to a size 14 as that suits my frame the best. Not sure what weight I'd have to be for that though.

VikkiiKawaii · 26/05/2013 09:04

I'm 5'3 and I'm around nine stone 3 pounds.
