I weigh half a stone too much so unhappy

HirplesWithHaggis · 19/09/2020 23:42

I would prefer to be a stone and a half heavier.

Spacie · 19/09/2020 23:42

I don't mind my weight. It's the spare tyre that's annoying.

DramaAlpaca · 19/09/2020 23:43

I don't like where it's gone on post-menopause.

Shayisgreat · 19/09/2020 23:43

I would like to lose 3kgs. But generally ok with my weight.

Pimmsypimms · 19/09/2020 23:44

Very Unhappy, need to lose 2-3 stone to be happy-ish.

Cryalot2 · 19/09/2020 23:45

Post menopausal and tend to be an emotional eater. Do not own scales and recently found out my weight and am not happy at all.

RedSoloCup · 19/09/2020 23:46

Happy but do a lot to maintain

purpleme12 · 19/09/2020 23:46

I am not happy because I put weight on over lockdown
I'm so unmotivated in general at the minute that I can't get myself and how I feel even back to how I should be so I've not lost it

Paintedmaypole · 19/09/2020 23:47

BMI chart says I am overweight but not obese. I feel neutral about that, it doesn't make me feel unhappy.

stopgap · 19/09/2020 23:48

Very happy, but put in a lot of effort with a Paleo diet and working out.

Whatwouldscullydo · 19/09/2020 23:48

Not really. But if I lose too much I lose my boobs so I have to try and find the fine line between being fat but reasonably curvy and just being fat.

BackforGood · 19/09/2020 23:49

Well, it doesn't ruin my life, and I don't focus on it particularly, let alone obsess about it, but in an ideal world, I'd like to be about 2 1/2 stone lighter.
I just don't want it enough to make all the changes I'd need to, in order to achieve it.

No idea if YABU or YANBU as I don't know what the question is.

DorotheaHomeAlone · 19/09/2020 23:49

Happy.

DaughterX · 19/09/2020 23:51

My weight is fine and absolutely healthy BMI-wise but i have an enormous middle since having kids that I'd love to shift as clothes just don't sit right any more.

WorraLiberty · 19/09/2020 23:52

Happy

AdoraBell · 19/09/2020 23:52

Unhappy. Gained a load through lockdown, made redundant and can’t be arsed. Seriously need to shift my mind set and start eating properly. Right now I’m too busy sorting things for DDs starting Uni.

Lovely1a2b3c · 19/09/2020 23:53

Unhappy.

I'm 14st 13lbs so I'm at an unhealthy weight from any perspective. I can feel the extra weight (I've been slimmer in the recent past) when doing things like walking upstairs or exercising.

I was unhappy at 11st too though.

I was happyish at 10st 6 but would be happier under 10 stone.

Thehop · 19/09/2020 23:53

Utterly miserable

KatherineJaneway · 19/09/2020 23:53

Unhappy.

NotExactlyMrsCurrentAffairs · 19/09/2020 23:55

Overweight but overall happy, my weight has gone on my boobs and bum, don't mind that. Wouldn't want to get any bigger though.

LearnedResponse · 19/09/2020 23:57

Not miserable but not happy. I’m a healthy weight (just) but my clothes don’t fit. Ideally I’d be a stone lighter - for purely aesthetic and economic reasons.

ktp100 · 19/09/2020 23:58

I've never been happy with my weight, whether skinny or obese.

I can never believe it when people look in the mirror and actually think they look nice. It's such an alien concept to me.

Cosmicbird · 20/09/2020 00:04

I don’t think I’ve ever been happy with Mr weight

Cosmicbird · 20/09/2020 00:05

**my weight 🙄
