Name change and copying a trending thread :)
Doing the new year new me bullshit. I was to be a perfect ten. How much do you weigh and what size do you wear?
I'm a good 12 and about 10stone 8 (before 37 thousand mince pies)

A perfect 10 would be nearly impossible for me.
I was 10 stone 6 a few years ago and apparently I looked too skinny in the face. I was a size 12.
Before the mince pies I was about 11 stone and a size 12-14.

fourthusernamebutwhoscounting · 29/12/2018 22:42

Possibly 2 stone more than you Blush, size 14

Yoyooyo · 29/12/2018 22:44

I'm 5ft 8 size ten 62kg

beansontoastfortea · 29/12/2018 22:44

I'm 13st 8 size 14... put on 3 stone this year!! Was 10st 6 this time last year and size 10

Clearthinking · 29/12/2018 22:45

Size 12, 10.6. I reckon if I shifted a stone id be a ten.

Hushabyelullaby · 29/12/2018 22:46

10st 3lb and a size 12

AlwaysTired2019 · 29/12/2018 22:47

I think Rihanna is our height and weighs 9 stone (article probably full of shit) but she's an 8! I've not been a size 8 since I was ermmm probably 8!

I've been a size 6 up to a 14 and everything in between. I'd like to be toned more than anything size wise if that makes sense. I tried on a skirt today and didn't realise I have massive hip dips and don't suit clingy things anymore after having my baby.

KiteMarked · 29/12/2018 22:48

Several stone heavier than you, probably a solid size 14 though sizing is so arbitrary as to be meaningless. I am a pear so I can fit into tops at least one size smaller than my bottom half.

Need to stop indulging in Christmas treats now, and get cracking on losing the weight. I don't care what size I am, but I do want to get into the healthy BMI range (mostly to keep my GP off my case if I get pregnant)....

TheFlis12345 · 29/12/2018 22:48

Size 10 and 10 stone.

Batteredoldchesterfield · 29/12/2018 22:49

5 foot 5 here. 9 stone 4 and a size 12. Could probably SQUEEZE into a 10 but I don't fancy it. I'd rather be comfy.

AlwaysTired2019 · 29/12/2018 22:50

@Yoyooyo body changes so much after a baby doesn't it!

5ft 8, currently 8 stone and a size 8/10 in the tall range (e.g. topshop and asos. Next's tall range is too tall).

I'm underweight and should gain to be healthier.

Runwayqueen · 29/12/2018 22:50

13.4 and size 14/16 depending on the store. Giving up smoking and emotional eating have resulted in a 1 1/2 stone gain this year.

Junkmail · 29/12/2018 22:50

I’m 5’7–I weigh 9 stone 7 and wear a size 8-10. I would like to lose 7 pounds though to bring me to a perfect 8 (hopefully 🤞🏼)

LokiDokiArtichoki · 29/12/2018 22:51

14 bottom, 16 top 13 stone 3lb (20 weeks pregnant though)

I’m a 12 at 12 stone and that’s the smallest I’ve ever been

5'8", 72kg and anything between a 10 and a 14, depending on where I shop.

Yoyooyo · 29/12/2018 22:52

Yeah tell me about it. I weigh less but somehow bigger in certain places haha.

Neverunderfed · 29/12/2018 22:52

I'm a size 16/18 and 15 stone.

AlwaysTired2019 · 29/12/2018 22:55

As per my username I'm tired so going to take a nap before maniac baby wakes up for the 23rd time tonight. But please keep this rolling! X

KimchiLaLa · 29/12/2018 22:55

I'm 5'8 and ten stone. I want to lose half a stone. I can be anything from a 10-14 in the shops, mostly a 12. Before pregnancy I was a 10.

JeezYouLoon · 29/12/2018 22:55

5'9 and cracking towards 12 stone Blush, still a size 12 just but I'm the fittest I've ever been, so I'm telling myself it's muscle!

January I intend to take myself in hand and work towards being 10st anything. Mentally I'm in a fabulous place so I'm hopeful of getting somewhere towards it.

MissusGrinch2018 · 29/12/2018 22:55

5'5 and 8st 2 - am over the moon I've gained 4 lbs over Christmas Grin

OhDearBeer · 29/12/2018 22:56

8 stone 5. Size 8- 10. I'm skinny at the mo.
