How Tall are you and how much do you weigh?

im 5'7 and weight 9 stone 6 :D (was 9/10 before pony 3 months ago :D )

i am leggy though.... so just about ok on my 15.2 but really should be on a 16hh + i think??? always been a gripe of mine - horses height...i look better on a 16hh+ but feel 100% safe on anything 15.2 down.

See, now you have me worrying again, i am 5'7" and weigh 10 stone 2 and my mare is a 15.1 Standardbred. i know i should be on a 16hh+ too, but feel safer on smaller, my last horse was a 14.3 Newforrest x.

I am also leggy and feel just that bit too big for my mare (although not too heavy - i hope), my daughter has a 16.2 IDx and although i look better on him, i just don't feel safe on him......
 
OP you don't sound overweight to me.

I'm about 5ft5 and weigh about 6 and a half stone. I know that sounds too thin, but it's better than 18 months ago when I was very ill (nearly dead) and down to just over 5 stone!
 
Yep, Hands up another one here who put on weight when moving in with OH and I'm now in the processes of losing most of it!

I'm 5ft 6 and was 9 n half stone when I met him, we moved in and within 18 months I hit 12 stone, and up to a size 14 that was when I said right this is enough. Im back to 10st10 ish now and am aiming for 10stone and size 10.

I can fit back into my old jods now so thats something! :D
 
Im about 5'6 and 9st, clothes size 8-10, but i agree now i live with OH i have put on weight as i tend to snack when he does and have same size portions! Plus can't afford go gym now either!!
 
13 stone is NOT fat as some people would like to think it is! :D I'm 5'9" and just under 13 1/2 stone. I'm classed as "obese" but do the hell I look "obese" to anyone here? These pix were taken on Halloween when I got my saddle so are recent.

LOL, most of you lot seem top be taller than me and are moaning at being 12 stone, I fell like a whale when I hear that!

I know my boobs have gotten bigger as my F cups are too small so think I need a 36G now. My body protector bulges at the boob though, LOL!!

I'd love to weigh less but it ain't going to happen. As long as I can ride without my wonky back and brittle bones giving out anytime soon, then then I can be 13 stone forever.

5'11, 10st10lb, Size 14! How does that work then?! I think I have wide shoulders so if I buy too small I can't stretch forward!

Am considering putting my 3.5yo in a growbag as she's only 14.2 :(

Well I say size 12 but clothes are always too short on the body, legs, arms and shoulders! Shopping can be difficult, there are few places where clothes fit me well, I did used to be a size ten and weigh 10st 4 but I just looked too skinny. I've also been over 12st and still size 12 - I just don't ever vary much

I am lucky though, I take after my Dad and can mostly eat what I want and never put on much weight

You dont want to know!! Im 12 ½ stone and 5ft 10in. I need to loose some weight but what with having no horse its hard. I know I need to start exercising.
 
5ft 3 and 9 stone but it's all muscle! Everyone comments how skinny I am and can't believe it when I tell me i'm 9 stone, most people would estimate me at 8 max even the doctors!
 
I'm exactly the same as Phillippa14, however mine is not evenly distributed - picture Kate Moss on top, and Dawn French from the hips down.......buying clothes is a NIGHTMARE! Thank god breeches are stretchy is all I can say!
 
OP I wouldn't be worried if I were you, like everyone says, as long as you're healthy and happy it doesn;t really matter :-)

I'm 5'10 weigh 12st and I'm 'normally' a size 12.....I have a 32H chest and large hips with a small waist and long legs so buying clothes can be a damned nightmare!

I'd love to lose a bit of weight and get back to 11st but I have an eating disorder and, partly because of this, my weight fluctuates like a yoyo, so as long as my boys (Warmblood and Welsh Sec D) are comfortable carrying my weight then I'm happy :-)
