I know scale weight and bmi isn’t everything but I’m on a weight loss journey and it would be helpful to know.

I’ve always been heavier than my shorter friends but have fluctuated up to 13 stone and still managed to fit into a size 12.

I’m 5 11 and nearly approaching my goal of 10 stone 7 at the minute and still a size 12.

I’d be interested to see if anyone else wants to share?

I think a lot of it is about bone structure. I am 5'8", and to be a size ten I would be almost skeletal.

ATM I am 11 stone and a medium, twelvish. When I get to 10 stone seven, I'll be a comfortable twelve.

Qbish · 15/04/2023 14:52

ie I have wide shoulders and broad hips. There could be someone my height who would be a size 10, because of being narrower.

I m 5’10, current weight 10.7 stone. I used to be slimmer and looked amazing.
It is difficult to tell the cloth size because of the bloody vanity sizing. I think I m genuine size 12, but probably 10 in some shops that want to please women.😂
I buy jeans from Levi’s and they are size 28

I’m 5”8, 10 stone 3 and size 10. I look better when I am just below 10 stone so will be aiming to list a few pounds for summer.

Kickingupmerrybehaviour · 15/04/2023 16:09

5ft 9.5, 12st 11lb. I wear size 12 jeans, 14 tops. When I was 11 st 5 which is the lowest I can remember weighing I was wearing size 10 jeans. I do have very little bum though

yorkshireteaparty · 15/04/2023 16:19

I'm 5'10, weigh 13st11, size 14

Tarantullah · 15/04/2023 16:22

I'm 5'11 and even in the past when I've been unhealthily underweight I was a 10 and never below and looked poorly. I'm a 12 to 14 now and weigh 12.5 stone.

WhirlAndCleek · 15/04/2023 16:23

years ago 5ft 10 and 10 stone 3 I was a size 12.
These days the likes of Next & other high street stores reckon I’m a size 8, sometimes a 10. Make of that what you will.

Figgygal · 15/04/2023 16:25

5ft 10
12stone 10
Size 14

Lowest I've ever been was 11 stone 3 and I looked ill

Early 40s and my weight isn't changing but my body definitely is getting bigger

halfthesun · 15/04/2023 16:45

5ft 10 ...,a size 10 ... weigh 10 stone 6. When I split from ex I dropped to 9 and a half stone and looked awful.

BigMandsTattooPortfolio · 15/04/2023 16:49

Lowest I’ve ever been was just under 9 stone at 5’9” and was a size 8. Honestly, I looked terrible, gaunt and scrawny. I look much better at around 10 stone which is round about what I am now.

sixfoot · 15/04/2023 16:52

I’m 5’9 and around 55kg. I don’t feel particularly slim although I know I am! And definitely don’t deny myself what I want although have always been pretty good at healthy eating / exercise / wine etc in moderation.

174cm (5ft8 ish)
63kg (9st 9)
Size 38 sometimes 40 (12/14)

Isn’t it amazing how everyone carries it differently?

Im 5”8 and 10stone 10 and a 10 on top 12 on the bottom. Since beginning of March I’ve been eating 1000-1200 cals per day (before that started eating 1500 after Christmas to get down from 12 to 11 stone) - I want to get to 10 stone but it seems like an impossible feat atm! I’m 41 and it is so hard to lose weight now.

Marylou62 · 15/04/2023 17:42

6ft and 14st 5lb..very curvy with big bum..16-18..size 14 waist.. very happy with my size and not much change (apart from putting on a stone after a multiple bone breaking accident) since late 30s..
