all depends on your frame I am usually 7 stone 3 to 7 stone 7 fluctuating over the last 10 years. I have put on a couple of pounds lately and am 7 stone 5 and I have been asked 3 times in the last week by seperate people if I am pregnant as my belly is very out at the front and my boobs are huge.

I was 5 foot 3 and 9 stone 5 at 9 months pregnant and I looked like absolutely huge.

I'm 5'7 and if I weighed 8.5 stone I'd be ecstatic!! I did weigh that when I got married and I was reed thin.

Unfortunately I now weigh 10.5 stone and do feel a complete heifer.

5'8" and over 11 stone. I am on a diet but even so I am just on the edge of healthy/overweight with a body mass of 25.5. I need to lose about another 1/2 stone. I am wearing a 14, but my frame is comfortable with me in a 12. In life before dc I was 9 stone 4 lbs and I was skinny and in my early 20's!!! Your dh needs a stift kick up the backside, if you were to lose anymore weight you would be seriously underweight! What are his measrurements, then we can do his bodymass index.

Listen to your friends and your brother.

bigTillyMint · 19/07/2011 20:45

He thinks you are lardy Shock

I am 5'8" and weigh about 10 stone.

I'd knock his teeth down his throat if he called me lardy Grin

AllYourCakeAreBelongToMe · 19/07/2011 20:52

5 foot 6 and a half inches, and 8 and a half stone. Horribly untoned though.

Mumbrane · 19/07/2011 20:55

5'11 and weigh 11.5 stone.

I am a size 12-14, but people guess me at a 10-12 as I have gangly limbs (just a bit of a tum that keeps me in the size 14 tops to mask up the jelly belly Grin).

My DH would never dare use the word 'lardy' around me Grin

RockStockAndTwoOpenBottles · 19/07/2011 21:01

5' 6" and a bit, no idea weight wise, but around 10 stone. Would kill to be your weight OP... I would punch your DH though, if he calls you lardy. Hard. Grin

Tinschy · 19/07/2011 21:16

Not quite 5ft (4ft 11) and 9 stone so am overweight but gave birth 6 weeks ago. Usually 7 stone 7 pounds so carrying more weight than I'd like but am feeding my baby so that's the reason I need the extra weight

That's my excuse and am sticking to it. Wink

GnomeDePlume · 19/07/2011 21:21

too much and my chin brushes the top of my trainers

amothersplaceisinthewrong · 19/07/2011 21:24

5' 7", 9 stone, size 10.

You can't possibly be lardy at 8 st 7. Sounds like DH has got flab on the brain.

When I was in my early 20's, I went down to 8 1/2 stone (I'm 5'8") I looked anorexic, and probably almost was. I looked DREADFUL in photos.

But makbe you are a much smaller frame than me?

5ft 6in and weigh 8st. Went up to 9.5 stone when pregnant with DS2. Apart from pregnancy have stuck rigidly at 8st since age 19. Always been skinny but am despite this weight am getting podgy bits in random locations. In particular podge in my armpit area which makes some sleeveless tops/dresses look a bit of a sight. Bum is getting podgier (again despite low weight) - and also noticing podge around my waist. Maybe this is what OP's DH is (unkindly) referring to.....?

chubsasaurus · 20/07/2011 13:45

5"4 between 7 stone 12 and 8 stone 2, not sure currently. Size 6-8. Heartbreak diet. :(
