How much do you weigh?

[Ca Plane Pour Moi]

Haven't weighed myself for ages, but thought about 60-65kg. Would be happy closer to 60kg. But I look OK so I figure I'm happy with my weight.

I was 64kg.

Consolation: I am fully dressed, including a heavy-duty bra as my outfit today needs larger breasts. I'm sure if I stripped off and chopped off all my hair I'd be closer to 60kg. Maybe I should book a haircut... (Cue the diet starting.)

[Calluna]

Im 163cm and about 55kg.

BUT

I am so unfit.I cant jog more than 10m without being short of breath. Keeping up with DS is exhausting. Housework doesnt happen anywhere near as often as it should. I just dont have the energy. I feel sick all the time.

I like the way I look. I hate the way I feel.

I am 165cm tall and currently weighing 67kg. In the last 2 1/2 months I have lost 8.4kg. My goal weight is 65kg so nearly there on the scales but I am still not happy with my body shape. I am very flabby on my legs/bum & tummy.
I am really happy & proud of the weight i've lost so far but I still have a lot of work to go. I also really want to improve my overall fitness as well.

I am 163cm and currently 66kgs (22 weeks preg). In Jan this year I was 65 (pre preg weight with DD - a bit more than I wanted to be even before I got UTD the first time). I lost 4kg before falling pregnant again. After this bubs I'd like to eventually get down to 60. I won't be in any hurry though!

[*LittleMissSummer*]

I could easily say that i'd like to weigh 75-80kgs but really i want to look in the mirror and be happy with what i see instead of thunder thighs, fat arms and a fat saggy belly. I want to be able to walk into Target grab a size 12-14 and have it fit comfortabley instead of grabbing a 16 and not being able to get them past my thighs and having to go into the plus size section where the 16 there is too big. I hate being an inbetween size!! Too fat for the normal womens clothes and too skinny for plus size.

[MrsFabuloso]

I hear you LMS I had been in between 'normal' 16's and plus size 16 for ages. Unfortunately I have put on a few kilos, so I haven't gone down to fit into a normal 16, right now I would be a plus size 16-18.

[Tuesday's Child]

I'm 165cm and currently weigh 78kg. Before DD1 I was 70kg went up to 87, and lost all but 5kg. While pregnant with DD2 I reached 95kg. I'd like to get back to 70 as a first step and then ideally get back to 65, but I'm trying not to stress too much until I'm done having kids.

I do feel better at this weight than I did at 70kg. It helps knowing my body has grown, birthed and nourished 2 kids. But I don't like to see myself naked and suspect i'll feel different once I return to work and my everyday wardrobe changes. But I have changes I want to make to our diet and lifestyle for a lot of reasons. I'd like to feel fit and strong and I want to encourage my kids to be active. I can't remember the last time I woke up feeling energetic.

I'm 175cm and weigh 87kg seven weeks after having DS3 (I was 100kg exactly the day I gave birth).
"Un-pregnant' I generally hover around 75kg. While I've cut myself some slack for the past seven weeks, I do want to shift at least 5-7 kilos before I have my 40th b'day party in a few weeks time. Sigh, I'd better pull out my running shoes tomorrow!

If I could click my fingers and automatically arrive at my ideal weight, I'd be 65kg ... but that's unlikely to happen in my lifetime as my love of food far outweighs (pun intended) my love of exercise.

[aussienic]

I'm 165cm and last weigh I was 74.3. 4 kids, too much coke and junk have made my belly look shocking. I am unhappy with my body but not motivate enough to do something about it.

[MLR1901]

I'm 160cms and weight is now approx 64-66kgs at 11 weeks pregnant. This time last year, just before getting married I was 57kgs. I have never been smaller than 55kgs, in my adult life.
Currently due to back to back pregnancies, I have a little weight from each left over.
I despise the BMI scale as currently I would be over weight for my height. I don't look heavier, in fact I had people saying that I look the healthiest I have in a long time. I also don't have shape I'm a column with boobs!
I would like to be 65kgs all the time if I had some hips to balance it!

[AnyDream]

I'm 176 cm tall and I weigh more than anyone in this thread.

How do I feel about it? 10-15kg ago, I was still sitting in the obese range, but I didn't mind. I was fit and strong, and I knew how to dress. Then along came pregnancy, sleep deprivation and chemo, menopausal hormone levels. Fast weight gain and for the first time ever in my life it was all around my middle. Now the fat is biting back. It is affecting my health, it's like I hit my body's turning point weightwise where the biology of the fat itself has taken over. Suddenly it is much much harder to lose. I know I need to do something about this but I'm taking it one step at a time, getting my sleep sorted out and then my cognitive issues, so I have the energy and focus to make better decisions. Realistically, I may never make it out of the overweight-obese zone. But I do know that losing 10-15kg will put me in a much better place than I am in right now.

Hehe... underbelly knicker roll sounds like something that would come out of the Willy Wonka Factory!

But maybe I just think that because I am fat

Do you think those lollies would be a best seller?



I hate it when your pantyhose either sit above that delectable belly fat or roll down. Not attractive having a readjust at the desk!

[Amaunet]

I'm 163cm and currently 64.5kg. At my (non-pregnant) heaviest (between pregnancies with ds1 and ds2) I was 75kg and struggling to fit into my size 14 clothes, I felt awful I then got a coeliac diagnosis and dropped to 72kg and was much less bloated. Then I got pregnant Post birth I was back at 72kg (which was awesome!)! I have since joined Weight Watchers and started Jazzercise - I am now completely Jazzercise addicted and do 3 or 4 classes per week. My current weight is the lowest I have been since my early 20's and I am a size 10/12 depending on the shop I have set my WW goal at 62kg (my healthy BMI range is 52-66kg) my weight loss is slowing but my fitness and lean muscle is increasing so I don't mind. I feel much more confident in clothes but still have lots of wobbly bits so I dress appropriately (no low rider jeans or short shorts lol)

[Miss_Dee]

I was going to post what I weigh but I weigh more than a couple of you put together

Honestly, I feel crap and terribly unattractive. While I was pregnant I loved my body and though I hated how hard it was finding plus sized maternity clothes that were also flattering, I loved how 'fat' I got. I'm 3kg under my pre pregnancy weight which is great, but I'm also much jigglier and have a terrible case of 'mummy tummy'. I just feel gross.

I don't know if I'll ever be in the healthy weight range going by the BMI scale, just based on my build. I really think even at the upper end of the healthy range, I would look weird and unhealthy. I do have a good 40 odd kg that I would like to lose though. God that figure is depressing

[diannescruffy]

I'm 163cm and weigh 52kgs and desperately would like to put on some more weight but struggle.

The reasons I believe the number on a scale shouldn't be an indicator of your health etc is the following. My goddaughter is a triathelete, is 170cm tall, a size 8-10 and weighs 71kgs, her best friend is also a triathelete, same height, size 10 and weighs 55kgs.

[Mak]

I agree Sop - so dependent on the individual! My weight has always surprised my GP and I know my sister is the same.
I am approx 176cm tall - At my heaviest pre kids I was 85kg, but fitted in a size 14. The lightest I'd gotten to was 76kg - but I was exercising madly and not eating well, so don't consider that healthy or sustainable. I was 110kg when DD1 was 6 months old.
Currently I sit at 80kg - to be honest I am really happy with this at the moment as I have struggled to get below 88kg post kids although I am still on the borderline of overweight. It has happened since Nov last year and I currently look a little drawn and tired in the face. I will never look like a waif as I have broad shoulders and a solid frame.

[Starfish]

Another person here that doesn't like the whole BMI thing.
I'm 180cm tall and I currently weight about 71kg at 25 weeks pregnant. I was about 64kg pre this pregnancy, which I'm pretty happy with.
Before I was pregnant with DD I weighed at 69-70kg, which for my height was technically a healthy BMI, but I looked and felt fat and unhealthy.
