I’m going 13st 7 considering height and muscle ratio.

This one is just about on the money. 13st 4lb (in the morning!). Size 12-14 in clothes.

I love absolutely all of you saying ten and eleven stone though, I wish. 😅😍 And I have been as much as 14 and a half.

My goal weight is 11 stone - BMI 24, though I may possibly go to 10 and a half. Currently just into the 12s, which I'm delighted about.

12.5-13 stone?

KidsDoBetter · 13/03/2025 14:17

Sorry just saw your update. Looks all muscle to me @SharpOpalNewt 🙌🏼

SharpOpalNewt · 13/03/2025 14:19

It is a full body photo (apart from head) I think you need to click on it to see the top half! @Blueberrymuffin8

From that picture I'd say between 10 and 11 stone. Mostly muscle weight you're in good shape.

Unforgettablefire · 13/03/2025 14:25

Sorry just saw the update 🤦🏻‍♀️ good luck you do look good.

Cheepcheepcheep · 13/03/2025 14:27

I thought 13st. I’m also 13st but all flab and no muscle at 5’6 so I’m a size 16. Well done for your achievement so far, keep going!

coxesorangepippin · 13/03/2025 14:35

You're pretty muscular and toned, I'd say 12 stone

PrettayGood · 13/03/2025 14:37

14 stone, as you look very muscular.

80smonster · 13/03/2025 14:54

Firstly, bloody well done! I’m the same height as you (and have just returned to running after 20 years hiatus), I reckon you are 11 stone - which is my current goal.

BreatheAndFocus · 13/03/2025 15:03

13 and a half stone.

Edited to add - just realised you updated very quickly! So, I was close then 😊 I think you look your weight, but I think you look good and obviously are toning up. Keep going 😊

TheGirlWhoLived · 13/03/2025 19:06

Hoorah! You look great, weight is one of the worst ways to judge your transformation unfortunately. It’s a useful tool though!

SharpOpalNewt · 14/05/2025 20:27

13 to 14 stone?

User37482 · 14/05/2025 21:36

I think 14 stone, you have great muscles in your legs so I think you may be heavier than you look.

I've been trying to lose weight for years basically. Have been using Nutracheck for about five years now and my diet has been pretty good - plenty of veg, 90/100g protein a day, 100-150g carbs, 20-30g fibre and I was basing it around eating 1700/1800 calories a day. Plus doing 2 yoga classes a week, 2 x weights/cardio in the gym and one just cardio in the gym or a run outdoors. But just couldn't shift the weight - was losing a pound then gaining it back and getting nowhere.

I've been on Mounjaro since March which has helped me cut calories to 1400, but with a similar nutrtional balance, and I've lost on average 1.7lbs a week. My BMI was 29.2 but I had started to develop high blood pressure plus have PCOS and endometriosis.

Now 26.2 - am aiming for 24 and will then see how my BP is (and cholesterol etc). Possibly will go to 22/23 which is 10 stone something. Am aiming to take it for a year at current weight of loss - titrating down gradually, still being careful with calories.

Well done, great progress!

thenewaveragebear1983 · 14/06/2025 10:39

I’m similar build and same height as you, and my body’s happy weight is 11.3, I bob up and down but pretty much always return there!

what was your weight when you were bmi 29 if you don’t mind saying?

B0D · 16/06/2025 20:06

Around 10 st

CRbear · 16/06/2025 20:09

13st7 because you look like I did at that weight (fantastic if I do say so myself lol!)

SharpOpalNewt · 07/10/2025 18:46

I've lost over 2 stone, having started taking Mounjaro on 1st March. Not too much muscle lost I hope. BMI 24. 11st exactly! Have not been this light in 16+ years.
