Petite - What's your weight?

[Myahe]

Trying to aim for a 'real life' number on the scale as a goal rather than a random one plucked from the air - if you're short, what weight do you feel best at?

I'm 5'1 and still chubby despite losing a few kilos!

It's so frustrating isn't it!

I'm five foot four and currently weigh 11 stone. I look fine in eg a floaty summer dress but appalling in jeans.

I look hot in jeans at 10 stone and a few pounds. I'd look amazing at 10 stone but I've never got there since I was in my late twenties. I'm 53 now.

I'm trying to lose some just now to get my belly down and feel like myself. It's crap.

5'1, about 60 kgs. I've lost a few kgs slowly since Xmas - mainly by lower & better carbs, more veg and protein, but tracking first in Zoë (which I found useful as a reality check on how I respond to carbs, and making better food choices). Now using nutracheck which is great as it integrates well with my Apple Watch. I'm 63 so really don't have much wiggle room on how much I can eat, and exercise makes a significant difference- we aim to walk at least 8km per day.

But at the moment I'm on holiday so, though we're not pigging out gratuitously I'm not logging food!

I'm under 5 foot. Weight 7 stone 5. It all sits on my inner thighs, boobs and armpits and I feel better weighing slightly less. But I'm not allowed to say that on MN. Very curvey. Slim waist. Do a lot of martial arts.

I'm 5'4 and currently 13 stone 11 I want to get to 10 stones then 8 because I look my best from 8 to 10 stones then I start to look really bad after that

I'm 5 ft 1 and at my best weight am 10 stone 7. I wear a size 10 there and feel good and dont have to starve.

My best friend is 5 ft 1 and weighs 8 stone 4. That is her best weight and she looks fabulous and she also does not have to starve.

We have very different builds- she is slim with very tiny bones. Like a fairy princess. I am squat (like a hobbit as my ex described) and have very large bones that even regular sized bangles do not fit my wrists.

I’m 5ft 1 and currently 13 stone. Waaay too heavy and don’t feel or look good for it. I
have been eating 1200 calories each day and minimum 7000 steps usually around 10k 3 or 4 days a week with 30/40 mins walking a few times a week but weight isn’t budging at all. I’d like to get to 10 stone but it seems impossible to get the scales to move!
being perimenopause doesn’t help.
any advice gratefully received.

Gosh this has made me feel awful and like I'm deluding myself.
I 5"2 and 9stones6z. So am a normal BMI
Have always been fat and got up to 14 stones until 2 years ago .
With a lot of effort am now the weight mentioned. I feel like I'm actually great!! Can buy clothes that look nice. Look ok in holiday pictures so I'm going to not look at this again

5’2” and 8 st 10. Curvy hourglass, and my weight has crept up a bit in the last few years - I used to be 8 st 3. Briefly, for a couple of years after DD was born, I was 7 st 7, which was too thin. I’d like to be a bit lighter, but I don’t care enough to restrict my eating and drink less wine. I’m reasonably fit so don’t look too bad.

I’m 5 ft 3 in and normally weigh 8 stone 3 lbs. As in, my entire adult life, apart from when pregnant. However I’m currently under a lot of stress (divorce) and have literally no appetite as well as a lot of stress related digestive issues I won’t bore you with … I’m now 7 stone 8 lbs and look absolutely dreadful 😞

5ft 1 and 8 st 8 - have lost half a stone and feel better but don’t look much different. Would like to lose a few more pounds but it’s hard post menopause. Jogging 3 times a week and watching what I eat, apart from occasional blip!
