I love how we're all different and I'd love to see how different our body types are.

I had a nasty shock this morning as I stepped on the scales and found out I weigh 74kg - the heaviest I've ever been!

I'm petite at 5'2" and I'd say I'm a curvy size 10. I have a big bum/legs from training and I strangely have a small waist but big hips and excess fat on my tummy.

I suffer from endometriosis so I do struggle to lose weight but I wondered how we all compare and if you have any healthy lifestyle tips.

I workout roughly 3-5 times per week and this is a combination of jogging, dance, weight session and cardio machines.

I am hoping to TTC next year and I an anxious of how much weight I may put on.

5ft 4" 69kg size 12 (sometimes 14). Total hourglass, huge boobs, hips and thighs, small waist. Clothes shopping is a right faff!

Whobloodyknows · 24/06/2019 21:26

6ft, float between 11st 9lb - 12st 4lb depending on the day/week! Size 10-12 on top and 12-14 on bottom

Whobloodyknows · 24/06/2019 21:30

Ps always thought I was more as I have broad shoulders, slim waist, big hips/bum and proportion sized boobs (34-36D)

Whobloodyknows · 24/06/2019 21:30

More hourglass shaped!

Notashandyta · 24/06/2019 21:51

5.10" pre babies weighed 10 and a half stone
Post babies (3 In quick succession) I weigh 14 stone.
I look bloody awful with clothes on but funny enough amazing with no clothes on! I feel far sexier and confident (boobs went from 34c to 36ff).
Now youngest is 2 I would like to start losing weight and aim for 13 stone

CharDee · 24/06/2019 21:57

I'm 5 foot 5, 15 stone, size 18. My bra size is 38G.

I have a very loose hourglass figure. I've put on a lot of weight over the last two or three years and I've never been this heavy. It's weird because I still seen to have a smaller waist and bum but I need size 18 to go on my hips and over my boobs.

I really need to lose some weight though. Need some motivation and will power!

Tunnocks34 · 24/06/2019 22:01

I’m 8 months pregnant at the minute so will use my normal body weight..

I’m 5’7”, slim. Wouldn’t say athletic because I don’t have muscle but pretty much if I didn’t have my boobs done I’d have the body of an ironing board 🤷🏻‍♀️ genetically I am a size 6/8 at the top. Slightly bigger hips but not much, maybe an 8/10. I normally weigh lower end of normal, maybe just over 8 and a half stone. I don’t put on weight very easily, and struggle to maintain weight too. I like food but I have a small appetite and probably don’t eat enough calories.

Shelbybear · 24/06/2019 22:13

Well at the start of this pregnancy I was 7st 8 and I'm 5ft1. This is a bit lighter than I'd like, I'm usually between 7.11 and 7.13 so was a bit shocked at booking in appointment with the midwife. My body shape is hourglass and I'm a size 6-8. I do zero exercise, too hard trying to fit it in with a toddler.

Don't worry about putting on weight when ur pregnant u can lose if after, just don't use it as an excuse to eat everything in sight as u will really regret! I put on just over 2 stone when pregnant and couldn't shift the last 10 pounds. I started at the gym when my girl was 4 months old and got very close to pre pregnancy weight in 2 months so I gave up the gym lol. The last few pounds fell off about 8/9 months after the birth.

AquaPris · 24/06/2019 22:20

5'4, size 8, 9 stone something. I am pear shaped with a softer belly than I'd like and a H shaped bum (so I have hip dips and my love handle section means my bum doesn't slope down nicely from the hips.

I don't love my body but I don't hate it, I've got into cycling in recent weeks so hopefully will tone up.

AquaPris · 24/06/2019 22:22

Waist size is a 26in

myidentitymycrisis · 24/06/2019 22:23

I’m 5’ 7, weigh 9 stone, size 10/12 on top and 8/10 on bottom. I have slim hips, broader shoulders and 30e tits.
My shape is ‘long and lean’ although I’m not very tall people think I’m taller.

firesong · 24/06/2019 22:24

5"5 and 8st. Wear an 8, sometimes a 10. Small build, curviest part is bum, no tits to speak of!

5'5, 11 stone, have slim legs/thighs, curvy hips/bum, small waist and 34GG boobs. Wear size 12 bottoms and stretchy tops...I'm at peace with my body atm.

JeSuisPrest · 24/06/2019 22:42

5 ft 6 inches. 10 st 5lb (66 kg) size 10/12. I'd say hour glass figure. Big boobs 34F and a mum tum. Would like to lose another 2 kg but generally happy to eat quite strictly during the week and blow out at the weekends.

Crazyladee · 24/06/2019 22:44

I'm 10 stones 9. 5ft 5 and a size 12. I'm pear shaped. Tiny frame up top. But big bottom and thighs.

I used to go to the gym and do loads of weight training but I've recently slacked off and now not been for ages.

Ilovefriday · 24/06/2019 22:45

I'm 169 cm (5 foot 6?) And 62kg. I usually wear a size 10. I've got a tiny frame with a very small waist but a big bum and "generous" thighs. As you can imagine skinny jeans do not fit me well! 😀

PaulHollywoodsSexGut · 24/06/2019 22:49

I could have written your post word for word @Notashandyta

With each baby I’ve gained more. But I’m 168cm so 5 foot 6 and my current weight of 83kg means I’m just under technically obese.

I’m not obese. But I am overweight and as much of an enlightened woman of the modern age as I am I hate my ham arms and general bigness and want to get back to the 70kg I was in 2014. That’s only 5 years ago.

NobodyKnowsTiddlyPom · 24/06/2019 22:51

I am 5'3" and weigh 9st4lbs currently, which is slightly overweight for me. I like to hover around the 9st mark. I am 32DD, but not particularly busty. I wear a size 10 usually, maybe an 8 sometimes but only in bottoms. I'm not sure what body shape I am. BWH measurements were 36" - 29" - 37" recently.
My weight can fluctuate quite wildly - anywhere from 8st12lb up to 10 stone - as I have autoimmune conditions that regularly require steroids to keep them under control. The steroids make me put a lot of weight on and as I get older, it's getting harder and harder to lose it again. When I'm very poorly I often lose a lot of weight too. It's quite exhausting!
I do try and exercise quite regularly (3-4 times a week, mix of HIIT and running activities) but when I'm ill, I can't exercise at all.

Clothes size really isn't an indicator of size as it varies so much between shops - I find Next very large, as well as most supermarket clothes, and M&S I find to have enormous hips but small waists so I can't buy trousers from there.

origamiunicorn · 24/06/2019 22:53

12 stone, 5ft 10. Boobs 41" Waist 31" Hips 43" Thighs 23"

I wear a size 14 comfortably.

Itsreallyallovernow · 24/06/2019 22:53

5ft 6. 12st (have lost 6st in the past 10 months). Sort of hourglass, sizewise I'm between a 12 and 14. I struggle to get 12s either over my wide hips or my bust (34g). I run/ walk a lot so have quite muscly legs which I like.

Aiming to lose another 1-1.5st and then once I've maintained that for 6-12 months will seriously consider skin removal from top of thighs and tummy/ apron.

xELENx · 24/06/2019 23:00

5'7, 11st 2lbs, dress size 12 (sometimes 14 on the bottom), wide hips, thick thighs, small waist, flat chest, bawheed!
