I'm just curious what others would think my likely weight is from this picture. I'm 5ft 2 for reference.

I'm 16st 13 and bmi 42.5 on this picture. I don't feel as big as my weight suggests, but I wasn't sure if it was just me. I've lost weight since, but I keep looking and thinking do I really look almost 17st? Anyway, thanks for answering. Maybe I'm not going mad.

11stone 2

I no longer trust any Mumsnetter who claims to be 9st

HermioneWeasley · 28/05/2023 19:18

13 stone

Do we win a jar of sweets if we guess correctly?

I was closest so I hope so Wink

LadyGardenersQuestionTime · 28/05/2023 19:19

12 stone. I’m 5’ 2”; im always astonished how much my taller friends weigh.

continentallentil · 28/05/2023 19:20

It’s SO hard to tell.

Somewhere between 12 and 14?!

You don't look that big! I'd have guessed 11st.

Freefall212 · 28/05/2023 19:21

I guessed 12 st because I feel as though I look pretty much the same size as you (maybe slightly smaller legs) and I weigh just under 13 stone - but I am 5'6"

ChiChaNaYubi · 28/05/2023 19:21

Around 17stone. You look a little bigger than me.

BriarHare · 28/05/2023 19:21

I’ll be honest, I said 16 st to be kind, but I actually thought 17.

Guesses of 10-11-12 stone are ridiculous , and perhaps are indicative of our delusion about obesity and weight.

No you DON’T

You have heavy bones… or do you carry it all out back?!

Iris1976 · 28/05/2023 19:22

I was going with 13st no way would I ever say nearly 17,I'm 5ft 7 and 18 at and I look a whole lot bigger than you.

fairycupcakes · 28/05/2023 19:25

I mean appearances can be so deceiving. I’m a size 8/10 and 5’5” hourglass shape and workout 5 times a week, I’m strong and have muscle which is denser than fat - I’m a little over 11 and a half stone and people never believe me when I say that so this is quite a strange question that you’re asking and wanting random people online to guess at. Is there a particular reason at all?

RoseRobot · 28/05/2023 19:26

11 st 5lbs max?

ICalledYouLastNightFromGlasgow · 28/05/2023 19:27

Just read your last reply and no, you don't look that weight or bmi. I'd have guessed 12 stone. You look a lovely shape but probably could do with losing a bit of weight for health. Surprised at your actual weight.

Speaking as someone who is about that weight and a wee bit taller than the OP, at least in this picture, she really doesn’t look it.

She looks A LOT less fat than me <bitterly waddles off>

Just a conversation I had with my mum today who was shocked when I told her my weight (current 16st 2). I just wondered if people who didn't know me would have said similar.

Tillyteacup · 28/05/2023 19:29

I guessed 12 before I read your answer.

SallyWD · 28/05/2023 19:30

For your height I would have thought around 13 stone.

Freefall212 · 28/05/2023 19:31

Are you in your 20s? I feel that when you are young, you can carry weight better. Your boobs are higher, your stomach flatter, less sagging etc.

UpUpUpU · 28/05/2023 19:32

Those saying 12 stone or less, how much do you weigh?

ThisMustBeMyDream · 28/05/2023 19:32

I'm 38.
