I feel like I look smaller than what I actually weigh (however I know I am still overweight) so was just curious to ask on here as not something I would go about asking friends/colleagues etc.

In stones and pounds please to save me having to calculate 😂

11 stone 6 I think

CantFindTheBeat · 24/01/2023 21:42

I would say about 14 and a half stone to 15 stone.

Muscular, with strong arms and broad shoulders. Great legs!

I'd say around size 18 dress size.

wherearerhou · 24/01/2023 21:43

I'm 15 stone 5. Dress size 16/18. Thanks all was just very curious but a good chunk of you guessed correctly so I must look my weight.

You have a lovely figure. I think the reason why you look smaller than you weigh is because you have a larger natural body frame. Your shoulders are fairly broad and your body looks muscular.

At the end of the day, how you feel in yourself is what matters. Weight and other people perceptions really don't matter.

I wondered why you had stairs into your bed! I've never seen that before

Haha, it's for my chihuahuas! My boyfriend made them for them

I posted one of these years ago purely because I was weighed by the doctor and was quite surprised because when I looked in the mirror I didn’t feel as heavy as the weight sounded! I’m quite tall (5’8 so not a giant) and carried my weight pretty well.
I was 15st 2 when I did it and you look a similar build although hard to tell without a side profile. I’m going to guess around 15 stone.

hellobethyname · 24/01/2023 21:44

See I'm 5ft 4 weigh 11 st 8 and look way heavier than you .

Guess it depends on where you carry the weight and what frame you are .

Jackrabbit22 · 24/01/2023 21:44

I'm saying 13 stone 10lbs

You look like you do weights. If you do then scales and the numbers are pointless anyway.
If you don't, I'm well jeal if it's natural.

thewinterwitch · 24/01/2023 21:45

You have a very compact figure. Looks nothing like 15 stone to me, and I would have thought 15 stone on a 5'4" woman would be a much bigger dress size. Can you post a side view? Curious!

CantFindTheBeat · 24/01/2023 21:45

NotRainingToday · 24/01/2023 21:41

Completely off topic, but do you get into bed via the stairs at the end, rather than from the side?

I don't know about OP but we have steps for our dog to get up!

DillDanding · 24/01/2023 21:45

5’4? I’d guess about 13 stone.

Cherry60 · 24/01/2023 21:45

I know you're not fishing for compliments but I think you carry your weight well, I would never have guessed anywhere near 15 stone. You must be very fit!

GroggyLegs · 24/01/2023 21:46

Hmm.
We're the same height but you have slimmer hips & I have a smaller ribcage.

Based on that, I think you're maybe a bit more than me. 10'7 - 11st.

I'd never say 13st!

Millana · 24/01/2023 21:46

I would say 14s 7lb / 15s ish.

That's based on how I look and my weight.

wherearerhou · 24/01/2023 21:46

@gamerchick with those big fat arms!?

Gosh no way! Was thinking 10-10.7.

PinkiOcelot · 24/01/2023 21:46

I don’t think you look that heavy OP. Your legs look slim.

I’m 5 ft 4ins and weigh 12.5 stones and you don’t look any bigger than I do.

ditherydotty · 24/01/2023 21:46

14.5 at a guess.....?

I’m same height and weight as you and I’m a size 20. It’s so bizarre to me how we all carry weight differently. I definitely look chonky. You look leaner and more muscular.

Peony26 · 24/01/2023 21:46

I think I know where you’re coming from, as I’m the same

I’m 5’ 6”, and I’m currently in a size 16 and I’m overweight but I don’t think anyone would believe how heavy I am, I’m 15st 7ish. I lost loads of weight a few years ago and got down to a size 10/12 depending where I shopped, I look back at photos and I really was tiny, but I was still 11st 9!
