Are you overweight if you're 5.3 ft and 10 stones and a bit?

Answer 1

8 stone is about 112 lbs. The average weight of a woman who is 5'5'' is between about 115-140 lbs. Differences can be cause by body type, muscle mass, certain medical conditions and medication, along with other factors. Weights within a few pounds of this scale are usually "average" or "healthy", too. You are actually at a very healthy weight, possibly even on the thinner side of "healthy".

Answer 2

In general your weight shouldn't exceed 9 stone 2 lb if you are 5' tall. Obviously if you are very muscular you may find your weight exceeds this limit. At 10.5 stone you are indeed overweight and you're not actually that far off being medically obese.
