Hi all,

I recently joined after weighing myself for the first time in maybe a year. To be honest, I was surprised that so much weight had obviously crept up on me and since then, have become incredibly body conscious and wary. So I am going to start a weight loss program, but I was wondering if anybody would be able to perhaps guess my weight/clothes size. Since I have been caught by surprised and not too sure how much of it is me being over critical and what not. PLEASE be honest.

I am 5"2, if that helps.

Thank you :)

    I'd say about a size 12 or 14 and about 150

    P.S. 5'5 and I'm 150 and a size 6/8 depending on brands.

    I'm guessing 150 since you are 5'2.

    Not sure what you are hoping to accomplish here though, its almost like you are seeking people to be judgmental as a means of guilting yourself into eating better or exercising. Not sure if you want guilt or sadness as your motivator.

    140-150 lbs considering your height.

    You look similar to what I did at 170lbs (5'4") if not a little thinner. I'd guess pants would be 13/15 (us juniors) or 12/14 (US misses).

    And Hi there!
    I wasn't hoping to accomplish anything, since I'm more and ready to go! It's just that in all honesty, I was surprised by the scale, and was wondering if it was just me not seeing it (which is must of been) or if I had been carrying it well to some sort! I just wanted to know if anybody could tell really!

    Well that's good. Sorry to read into your intent just a lot of people who start posting on this forum seem like they are upset or coming from a bad place and overreact and start doing these harmful diets to try to lose weight quick. Glad to hear you are stronger than that and just wanted opinions.
