What's the weight of a "Stone" in pounds?
Exercise and diet regularly while practicing good food choices (Cut the junk out) will help with weight loss regardless.
I don't have a clue , I just know I am 10 stone 8 pounds
Sorry
I think it is 12 pounds. Anybody know for sure?
ONE stone is about 13 or 14 pound
Sorry didn't understand what u meant
10 stone 8 pounds converts to 148 american pounds
Depending on your hight 10 stone 8 pounds could be a healthy weight. Try checking your BMI (Body Mass Index) online, just Google body mass index and it will tell you if your underweight, a healthy weight or overweight. It will also suggest a healthy weight.
If you really want to drop some weight a simple way is cut down on calories, eat no more than 16OO a day and take plenty of cardio exercise.
I'm not giving an expert opinion but it's a suggestion. Weight loss isn't hard if you have the will power.
Ill try that on Google thanks
I know this is off the subject, but isn't just saying how much you weigh in pounds straight out so much easier? Just kidding!
I saw that you also posted under stopping smoking. May I suggest you pick one of these goals and complete that before trying another. I am a girl that has battled my weight all my life and can tell you from experience that trying to lose weight while trying to quit smoking is super tough. I would suggest starting with the cigarettes first. That is more critical now than your weight.
Once you have been smoke free for 6 months, then start your diet. Adding exercise now while keeping your same diet will make you feel better and you will start seeing small results soon.
Em, some places in the UK weigh in stones, where other places weigh in kilograms. If you go to Google and type in convert 10 stone to pounds it gives you 140 pounds. So one stone = 14 poundsQuote:

No, hun that is just right.
* Underweight = <18.5
* Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
* Overweight = 25-29.9
* Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
:d made me feel abit better.. at least I'm not obest.. just need to tone myself up a little
Thanks for all your help :D x
Emland, great point about the smoking and eating. I have many, many self destructive behaviors and so I have to prioritize which ones are most hazardous. I smoke, overeat, waste time watching TV and compulsively reading any kind of book I can get my hands on. And other more destructive, some illegal behaviors. I try to control the illegal ones because I would REALLY hate to have to spend time in jail.
