Are you too fat, short, thin, or tall? Compare yourself with this chart.

Very interesting to compare yourself with others using this height weight photo matrix.

Give or take a kilo and a centimeter, it would be this.

This guy is roughly the same height and weight as me.

Even rounding up, the pics of the people shown for my height and weight look thinner than I am right now. I believe a difference in bone mass makes this difference because though a lot of women I know are also 5’2” tall and my weight, my bones are a lot smaller and my weight looks puffier. Lucky me.

The girl version of me is kinda hot.

I’m female 5’6” and weigh 147 right now, but on my way back down to 136–140. The photos seem fairly accurate in my height weight range.

@Neizvestnaya I think it usually has more to do with muscle mass more than small bones vs big. I am not taying bones don’t come small and big, but I think small boned people with a lot of weight look big boned, so it is deceptive. I am not saying you are fat, I have no idea how much you weigh, only that the people in the photos might have more muscle mass.

@JLeslie: Right now I’ve 130lbs on my 5’2” frame. I’ve always been smaller boned that most people and I look puffy FAT face & arms compared to the pics of women on this chart.

@Neizvestnaya I just looked up your height weight on the link and I would expect most women to look like the last photo. The few at the top are more muscular than most women I think, they look likenthey work out.

I am in about the 46th percentile in height and the 2nd percentile in weight.

I am too thin.

@JLeslie: That lady looks huge though, her legs alone are bigger than most of me. Oh well, this is why it’s best not to let weight get out of hand. :(

JLeslie's avatar

@Neizvestnaya She is not huge.

Too short!! The woman in the 5’1’, 160 lbs looks pretty good for her weight. Most of my weight has made me look like a ‘way too old for it’ pregnant woman.

Apparently I don’t have a big enough gut. Quite surprising, considering all the beer bottles I keep giving blow jobs to.

For women, there are women who are bottom heavy and women who are top heavy. I can look at a woman who weighs the same as I do, and if she is top heavy and I am bottom heavy, we will have totally different pants and shirt sizes. I have friends built like a football player, but with thin legs. I am more shaped like a pear. There’s a big difference in size and appearance between football player and pear-shape.

Used to be around here. Now I’m around here.

I want to get to around here.

@hiphiphopflipflapflop Your first two links are the same. Your last link, the weight you want to be, is too thin in my opinion. Don’t go less than 180. Just my opinion.
