Really random, but if your body weight were suddenly halved, would you still be alive?!

[eatsleepread]

I don't know what made me think of this. Probably the depressing realisation that if I weighed half as much, I'd be a skinny Minnie, but very much still alive and kicking!
So I really need to lose weight.
You?

I'd weigh 4 and 3/4 stone, so don't think so.
But I do need to lose about half a stone.

Yes, but only just

No, I'm slim and very active. It'd render me a rather unhealthy 29kg.

I'd be around 5/5.5 stone so would probably be alive just not very healthy!

I would be perfect 🥰

Perhaps. 4 stone and a half stone so certainly very unwell. I'm 5'5.

Easily - I could probably get away with a third and still survive!

Aaaaaand depressing thread of the day goes to....!

Oops, sorry, I really didn't mean it to be! I guess I was just curious ...

My BMI would be 11.2 if I was half my weight. I don't know if that's compatible with life or not. Maybe just about?

Well I would, personally! Depending on which bits were taken away of course. I'm disgusted to say that if I halved my body weight - assuming they could take fat and nothing important (guess I could survive without legs if it came to it haha) I would absolutely be able to survive. I would be quite underweight but not dangerously so. In fact I'd probably be healthier than I am now! In fact, thinking about it, where do I sign up?!

I would be 3 and a half stone so probably not. You are probably now thinking I'm very thin but I'm not. I am short and I look about 5 months pregnant 🙄

Alive but probably unhealthy

But I'd that over my current weight anyday

No

4 stone 5lbs and 5ft 8. I reckon I'd be a gonna!!

Yeah I'd be just under 9 stone 😱

I would be dead. 7st2 in half would not be good.

I'd most definitely be dead or hanging on by a thread at 3.5 stone.

I doubt it.. 5ft 4 and 4.7 stone, about the same weight as my son

Yes I’d be 8 stone or thereabouts.

I’m only 5 ft 4 so that gives you enough to go on how overweight I am!

I would be alive, but probably bed bound. 4.7 st wouldn’t be great!

I’d be dead.

I think so at my current pregnant weight. My normal weight I don't think so

I'd be 5.5st, which at 5ft 5 would be borderline I'd imagine.

At my lowest adult weight I was 7.3st and looked and felt terrible - I'd been very unwell and lost 2st in a matter of weeks.

Yes. Then I'd be the perfect weight for my shortarse body. If only!

I'd be healthy according to BMI but would look bloody awful.
