How much do you weigh?

Sorry I know these are done a lot but I searched and couldn't find any for this height and size.

I'm doing SW and currently a size 12, my goal size is a 10 and target weight set as 9 and a half stone currently. I wondered whether this was an accurate weight to aim for.

That seems quite high- I'm 5ft 7 and a 8-10 at 9 stone. Currently 91/2 and can't fit into a high street 10 booooo

AliceInHinterland · 03/10/2016 20:57

I am 9 1/2 stone at 5' 2" I'm a ten on a good day, but quite pear shaped so occasionally pushing twelve in trousers. It's at the top of a healthy BMI - I would personally feel happier slightly below nine stone.

FoxesOnSocks · 03/10/2016 20:57

I'm an 8/10 (usual depends on shop) 5' 3" and 8 stone 10 ish.

From past threads about this weight doesn't seem to dictate dress size. Others my height think at my weight they'd be enormous!

BakeOffBiscuits · 03/10/2016 20:58

I think that's quite high too I'm afraid.

Im the same height and I'm currently 9 st and a size 10.

When i was 91/2 I was a size 12. We are all different shapes though so for you 9 1/2 may be ok.

charliedontsurf · 03/10/2016 20:59

I'm 5ft 3 and am a 10 when I weigh between about 9.5-10.5 stone. At the lower end of that I'm sometimes an 8 on top and can wear 'small' label tops. Depends on the shop really!

It all depends on your body shape, at 9.5 stone I start to look a bit too thin.

kohl · 03/10/2016 21:00

I'm 5'2, size 10 & 8st 5.

IloveCheese11 · 03/10/2016 21:01

5ft 2(and a half) and I was 9 stone ish when a size 10. By 9.5 stone I was more of a 12.

mummarichardson · 03/10/2016 21:01

I am exactly the same height and weigh 9:7 and a size 10 in most places - even Zara lol. Some things are still tight round the waist so trying to lose a bit of tummy fat Smile

littlepinkgiraffe · 03/10/2016 21:04

Oh wow thank you. I think I may need to aim a bit lower then. I'm currently 10st 4.5 so may have further to go than I thought.

Thank you all for your replies.

I don't weigh myself often but I'm 5' 2" (3 on a tall day) and stay between 9 1/2 and 10 stone. That's pretty much regardless of whether I'm an 8 or a 12. That's why I don't really weigh myself as I don't find it an accurate representation of my body shape. I've been the same since I was a kid.

MissHemsworth · 03/10/2016 21:07

I'm 5'4" & a size 10 weigh around the 9 & a half mark

Losingtheplod · 03/10/2016 21:09

It is odd how much it seems to vary. I am that height, size 10 to 12, and 10 stone.

Hassled · 03/10/2016 21:12

I'm 5 ft 3, 9 stone and usually a size 10. Most of that 9 stone is belly, though.

Leatherboundanddown · 03/10/2016 21:15

5ft 2 and 8 stone. Size 8 on top 10 on bottom.

SansaClegane · 03/10/2016 21:34

Threebedsemii That seems quite high- I'm 5ft 7 and a 8-10 at 9 stone. Currently 91/2 and can't fit into a high street 10 booooo

I'm 5ft 7 and currently weigh 11st. I can quite happily fit into a high street 10. I'm planning to lose 1/2-1 st so I'll be a size 8 again! My pre-pregnancy weight was 9 1/2 st and I was a size 6-8...

Just goes to show weight does not determine size; it's more your shape and if you are toned or not.

I am 5.2 and when I weighed 9 - 9 1/2 I was a 10

chiquita1 · 03/10/2016 21:57

I am 64 kg but I am almost 5.3 I am a size 10 in pure collection and boden (maybe they are vanity sizes).

Polkadot1974 · 03/10/2016 22:11

5'2" and weigh 9 stone 4. 12 is horribly snug on me so go figure. Don't think I could be 10 unless 8 stone

moomoogalicious · 03/10/2016 22:16

5'1" and 8 stone 11lb. I'm an 8-10.

melibu84 · 03/10/2016 22:16

I'm probably about 10 and a half stone at the moment, and am between a 10 and a 12 (they need a size 11!). I haven't lost the baby weight yet.

Weight varies so much for each individual, I would not go by that. Instead go by how clothes fit and how healthy you feel.

MandyFl0ss · 03/10/2016 22:17

And where do you all pear shaped shorties shop? Grin

zippyswife · 03/10/2016 22:17

I'm 5 8" and just under 9 stone. I would say I'm a 10 (or a very large 8!). I guess it depends on your shape and how tightly you wear clothes.

Artura · 03/10/2016 22:17

5ft2 and weigh 9st 6 at the moment. Size ten on the bottom, 12 on top (32ff boobs). Have you seen this website www.mybodygallery.com ? Gives you an idea of various body shapes at various weights. I'm pretty happy at this weight, it doesn't vary much whatever I do diet/exercise wise.

KanyesVest · 03/10/2016 22:22

I'm currently 75kg, so nearly 12 stone, 5ft2 and I'm about a 10 on top (although the jumper I bought in h&m yesterday was 6-8) and a 12 (h&M) on bottom. I was a solid 10 when I was a stone lighter, and my ultimate plan is to get to about 63kg/9.5 stone.
