The reality of the reading on the scales and you being unhappy with that must be incentive enough. Random guesses about size and weight will do you and your confidence no good.

MissMary0fSweden · 01/05/2019 18:03

14.5 stone and size 18-20

CrazyCatMamma · 01/05/2019 18:03

15 stone size 20

Battie · 01/05/2019 18:03

I'm very, very unhappy with my weight.

Have yoyo'd for years without any real loss. A tone or 2 down at most.

14.5 stone size 18-20.

CitadelsofScience · 01/05/2019 18:04

I would say 16-18 clothing and around 15 stone. I similarly need to ditch the lbs.

Battie · 01/05/2019 18:04

It's not incentive enough as I've watched the scales rise for years.

WanderingTrolley1 · 01/05/2019 18:04

15st plus, size 20-22.

LeekMunchingSheepShagger · 01/05/2019 18:05

I can't guess your weight because I don't know how tall you are. I would say size 20-22.

MashedSpud · 01/05/2019 18:06

You can do it Battie. I’m gonna watch this post for your after photos in the months to come.

Justmuddlingalong · 01/05/2019 18:06

You would be better posting on the weight loss threads. You'll get great advice and encouragement.

Bluntness100 · 01/05/2019 18:06

This isn't going to work either op. Some folks will try to flatter you. Will you not wish to believe them? You've posted a picture of yourself in a dress that is very forgiving. You've done this for a reason. If you really wanted to face it, you'd have worn something that showed your body more.

You know your weight and dress size. You know you're over weight, likely classified as medically obese.

Posting pics of youtself in what is likely your most slimming outfit and asking People to guess your weight and dress size isn't going to help you. And it doesn't scream someone who wishes to face it.

Battie · 01/05/2019 18:07

Oh. Could MNHQ move it?

OP posts:
Battie · 01/05/2019 18:07

I don't have any slimming outfits 😂

This is what I wear everyday.

Don't move it. Remove it and start a new thread, no photo.

FellaGoneRogue · 01/05/2019 18:08

So has anyone hit the mark yet then Op?

Battie · 01/05/2019 18:08

Why would I want to show my body more at this size. Everything I own is a black dress with leggings or pyjamas.

OP posts:
Battie · 01/05/2019 18:08

No. Jones been close.

OP posts:
Battie · 01/05/2019 18:09

No one* not jones

OK. I'll ask them to remove it and go to the weightloss threads.

Thanks :)

This is a really interesting website, you put in your height, weight, age, sex etc and it shows you how other people carry that.

Herland · 01/05/2019 18:09

You're never a size 22!!

To be honest it's not the best photo to judge from. It doesn't allow us to see around your middle. You look like a taller version of me. I'm 10.6 stone and a size 12.

FellaGoneRogue · 01/05/2019 18:10

I want to know your stats now OP!!! 🤣

YemenRoadYemen · 01/05/2019 18:10

@LeekMunchingSheepShagger - the OP kindly provides her height right there in the OP.
