To ask how much you think I weigh?

I’m genuinely just curious. My hairdresser said she thought I’m a good 2-3 stone lighter than I actually am, so it got me thinking!

13-14 stone, size 18 (can get away with some 16)?
Your body looks similar to mine, but significantly shorter.

MsTamborineMan · 12/10/2025 10:07

I would say 15-16st

I didn't write 13 stone to be nice. 16 stone sounds an awful lot as a pp suggested. That would be close to morbidly obese and she is no way that .....not even close.

Really? As myself and the others who guessed 15-16 were spot on.

Berlinlover · 12/10/2025 10:07

Your hairdresser was just being polite.

I’m 15 stone 8!!!

really shocked by all the low guesses, but I’m guessing I carry it quite well!

You do not look that heavy!
Are you quite active/muscular?

Very well, that's not that far from clinically obese if your height is correct. You look very far from that, very far.

BlindSpotForCats · 12/10/2025 10:08

I thought you would definitely weigh less than I do and I am just shy of 13 stone at 5 ft 2. You certainly look slimmer than I do!

Well she clearly does as many of us got it right.

I don’t get the point of this.

Slinkyminky22 · 12/10/2025 10:09

15/16 stone.

Yep. I'm 12 stone and 5'5 and think I look heavier than that. A recent swimsuit photo was an absolute shocker.

Do you really think she looks that obese?

Your clothes look like they're a bit big on you. I really couldn't say weight wise. Anything from 9.5-12 stone?! You look about size 14. But like you're wearing a size too big.

Given the fact her hairdresser guessed 2-3 st less than she actually is she's not going to weight 9.5st is she? That would mean the hairdresser guessed at 7st

It is obese isn't it? I'm the same height and just over 12 stone and still in the obese category based on BMI chart

HostaCentral · 12/10/2025 10:10

I guessed 15 Stone when I first saw you, so pretty accurate. The low guesses on here are just ridiculous. Sorry OP.

ComebackStory · 12/10/2025 10:10

You look similar to my best friend so I’d say 16 stone, size 20ish. She’s on a diet so I get up to date stats!

ThatLadyLady · 12/10/2025 10:10

I’m obese, yes. Down nearly ten stone from being off the BMI chart! I never thought I carried it well, but if nobody really believes my weight it makes me think I must?

Sorry I meant morbidly obese.

Onegingerhead · 12/10/2025 10:10

Being European I d say 75-78 kg

FenceBooksCycle · 12/10/2025 10:11

I'd guess abou 85-90kg

Twodogsonthecouch · 12/10/2025 09:59

I’m stunned at some of these guesses. 15-16 stone 😲😲😲. I’m 159cm so a bit shorter, and I think I look very similar to you and I weigh 69kg so 10 stone 12 lbs.

She weighs nearly 16 stone, so those guesses were pretty much bang on.

Not muscular, active at the gym and trying to build muscle though!

SilenceInside · 12/10/2025 10:11

I’m a little taller than the OP and I currently weigh 11st 10lbs and wear a size 14. The OP looks significantly larger than me, and looks like I did when I was around 15 to 16stone. Which is what she weighs. It isn’t because she’s especially muscular, it’s just that people are not good at judging weight.

Betty1625 · 12/10/2025 10:12

Well done! You are doing so well!
Do you have a lot of excess skin?

Alittlefrustrated · 12/10/2025 10:12

12stone (was going to say 12 - 13 stone until I saw you are only 5ft 3ins).

I think she looks obese, yes.

Comedycook · 12/10/2025 10:13

Well done on your weight loss op.
