To ask if you're a UK size 14...

[SleepingStandingUp]

How talk are you and what do it weigh?

Trying to work out my target weight.

I know the range according to BMI but I'm too fat to visualise what say 9 stone looks like.

I'm a size 20, I was happiest in myself as a size 14 but never weighed myself back then.

I'm 5 ft 4.5 so trying to guesstimate what weight I'd be as a comfortable 14

It’s very roughly a stone a dress size. So if you’re a 20 now, you’d need to lose 3 stone to be a 14.

Part of the problem with sizing is that every shop is different and every woman is a different shape/ likes a different fit. One woman’s size 12 is another’s 16!

5ft 6in, 11st 4lbs and pear shaped. I have quite a small frame and I don’t carry extra weight well.

I'm a 14 bottom half, (12 top half) and am 5ft 11. I weigh just under 12 stone currently and am within a healthy BMI and am quite fit through regular exercise and a mostly decent diet. My weight is all around my bum and thighs.

I’m 11 stone 4 and 5 foot 10 and I’m a 12-14!

I am a fatty I weigh almost 15 stone and wear a 14. I joined WW last week and the coach couldn't believe how heavy I was.

I even have a few pairs of size 12 jeans from Next.

I think shops vanity size. I am under no illusions I know I am fat.

Hadwe - it's all about body shape. I'm 5'6", 14.7 stone and a size 14 on top. But I'm a size 16 on bottom, classic pear shape with very chunky legs.

OP if you're reading, come over to the 100lbs + thread in weight loss chat and join us.

I always believed that being big boned was an excuse but it's not.Ive recently been for a health check.I was told a good indication is size of your wrists.if you can get thumb and index finger round your wrist with a gap you are small framed.if there isn't a gap medium and not at all a larger frame.bmi is an indication of health but last time I looked there were other more detailed ways of measuring health.bmi doesn't often take into account for example if you were really fit and muscly

Im a 14 .. I weigh 11stone 6
I'm 5ft 1

im 5ft 4 size 12/14 and 10st 3.

I'm 5'3" and weigh 10st 7 am more a 14 than a 12

5'3" and 12.5 stone. I am a comfortable 14- sometimes a 12.

I'm 35 weeks pregnant right now and I weigh 11stone 6lb.😱I'm currently wearing UK size 14m. I am 5ft 3 and usually weight 9stone, and wear uk dress size 10! If I work hard and get down to 8.10 I can fit a size 8, that's my goal once baby arrives! 🍀💕

I haven’t read the whole thread but just thought I’d add my thoughts OP. I’m 5’4 and a size 14 and I weigh around 11 and a half stone or 74kg. I’m quite bottom heavy with a curvy bum and hips but much smaller waist and small c cup boobs, so i’m definitely a 14 on the bottom but more of a 10-12 on top. Hope this helps!

I’m 5’1.5” weigh 12st 7lbs and I’m just into a size 14 now bottom half because I have massive hips and the typical PCOS tummy!! Top half depending on shop 12-14 I have lost 31lbs and dropped down four dress sizes within the last 5 months. I’d probably have lost more if I didn’t keep eating packets of Oreo biscuits!! Oh and I exercise lots plus my job is pretty active as well

Way bigger than this now. But I was a size 14 once at 12 stone. I am 5 feet 8 inches tall

I'm 5'6 and 13 stone 7lb.
Size 14 bottoms, no backside at all 🙄, but I'm busty so size 16/18 tops. I carry my weight around my stomach unfortunately.

I’m 5ft 2in and weigh 10st 3lb. Heaviest I’ve ever been (including pregnancy) but I seem to have settled there in middle age. I am a large 14 on top (big boobs) and in the middle (middle aged waist loss) but a trim 12 on my hips and thighs.

I am 10.2, 5ft 6 and I cannot ever know what size I will be in any shop

34FF boobs so sometimes 14, sometimes 16 in tops BUT, I am currently wearing a cardigan that is size 10, a vest top that is size 16 and a pair of size 14 Primark skinny jeans

I also have size 12 skinny jeans.

I mainly need to buy 14 dresses because of boobs, but sometimes they are a bit loose on waist/hips so send back as they look shite

I don't look at numbers anymore; it's too hard. I just buy what fits

I’m a size 14. I weighed 11 stone 2 lbs, and am 5 ft 5.5 ins.

I’m 5’ 10” and weigh 68kg or 10st 10lb and am size 14, I have a large frame,

I am just under 6ft and 11st 11. I am a 14 in my top half and 32inch waist and 34 inch leg for jeans. (I think thats a 14) I am on a mission to lose another 10lbs as I am large for me.

I'd say if you weigh eleven stone, you might fit a twelve these days, which is roughly what a 14 used to be!

I'm 5 foot 4 and a size 14 is about 13 stone for me. The lowest weight I have been as an adult is 10 stone 9 and I could happily fit in to size 10 dresses and skinny jeans from everywhere then yet I know loads of people who think this is on the heavier side, so it always boggles my mind how different it is from person to person! Incidentally OP, I'm currently a size 18/20 and over 17 stone so wanting to do exactly the same as you. I set one of my resolutions to get to 14 stone something by year end but it's looking highly unlikely unless I get a major boot up my wobbly bum!

5' 8" and 12 stone - size 14, half a stone less and clothes are really loose

I'm 5.5. 10 stone 8 and a size 12-14 Have you done the string test? It's really good for measuring visceral fat which is the dangerous one.
You cut a piece of string as long as your height, fold it in half and hold it around your middle to see if it meets. If not, you are carrying too much visceral fat. I failed the string test so I'm trying to lose a bit of weigh and tone up. Good luck x
