Do I look overweight?

[ZippyLimeBear]

Do I look overweight? I’m the one in grey. I’ve had two kids and I think I might have let my weight run away with me, but as a typical woman I want to know if I’m being over critical? Please be honest

You look good in jeans. That’s all you need to know.

I don’t think you look overweight. I’m surprised you’re at the top of your BMI. I do
think that your jeans/jumper combo isn’t flattering you. We all have photos where we look worse than we think we look. We’re our own worse critics. No one else will have thought that. They’ll have seen a big smile having fun with your family. Just like you saw them.

I think you look lovely!

You have a bit of a mumtum * but that’s because you are a normal human woman who has grown two babies in there. You look fine!

• but a lot of that is baggy jumper. I think in a more fitted outfit your figure would look sleeker.

OP you have a lovely figure but if you’re getting above your normal weight then good idea to do something about it before it becomes a mammoth task to get back there.

Also please look into getting a bra fitting.. it will make a big difference

I think you might be about the same size and body shape as I am. I call myself a fat 10. Like you I've always been a size 10 but am most definitely a 12 really . I don't think we are fat but I would say I certainly feel overweight at the moment.

Clothes do make a difference though and that is probably not a very flattering jumper.

Ps who won?

seriously?

You look v slim to me. Am a bit shocked by the posters saying you look overweight. I am quite a bit bigger than you but feel like I look good too! Now I realise people must look at me and think I am fat. Oh well!

You look lovely and if you are wanting to change anything, I'd recommend strength training over a diet every time.

True. I did a lot of strength training a few years ago and was amazed at the difference it made. Am getting back into it recently and hoping to start seeing a difference again soon.

A little bit

some of us would kill lol, for a figure like yours you look lovely,

Based on your legs I'd say no, but you could lose some weight and still be in the healthy BMI category.

So depends on whether you are bothered by your weight or not.

I would guess your bmi to be about 27 which is a bit overweight. You’re carrying it fine though. Most people would say you don’t look overweight though

You look like a 10-12? You look in proportion and healthy and slim. I wouldn’t worry at all

I’m really sorry never meant for this post to make anyone feel bad about themselves!

No, you look really good.

I think you look great and quite like that jumper!!

it’s more about how you feel though. I know after kids my body changed loads and things just didn’t quite fit right. I also still have a bit of a mum tum. But that mum tum housed two lovely babies so it’s something to proud of!!

Maybe try some toning exercises to help you feel better but don’t focus on weight as you look absolutely fine!!

Not overweight. Perhaps need to tone your stomach but it maybe what you're wearing.
I'm technically underweight and still have bingo wings, I definitely need some toning exercise.

I don’t think you’re overweight particularly but the distribution of weight being central and upper body maybe makes it appear moreso? If there’s any family history of diabetes or heart disease I’d possibly try to reduce waist circumference but honestly you look lovely so if it’s just aesthetics on your mind I wouldn’t worry.

No you look perfectly in proportion and healthy. You look great.

Ok so is that an egg on the spoon?

You’re not skinny. But I think you have a lovely body. It looks like you have great legs and a bit of a tummy. I wouldn’t look at you and think you’re overweight. I’d admire how well you suit jeans.

My opinion - you look good, you have slim legs and hips. You may be carrying extra weight on your middle, or it may be how your jumper falls - I can’t really tell. Hope you had a fun time!
