Kourtney Kardashian is five feet tall & she claims to only weigh 98 lbs now

Kourtney Kardashian joins the latest fashion trend

Kourtney Kardashian is the oldest of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters, and all things considered, she’s the “most normal.” She participates in the reality shows of course, but her “storylines” are usually just filler until they show the good stuff, which is literally everybody else. Kourtney’s storyline for the past year or so has been all about her life post-Scott Disick. After years of back-and-forth, Kourtney and Scott are finally done for good. He’s dating a teenager (Sofia Richie) and she’s now dating a younger guy too: 23-year-old (??) Younes Bendjima, an Algerian model-type. The storyline for Kourtney now is “Post-Split Kourt is really feeling herself.” She’s got a model boyfriend and she’s been working out a lot and “getting her body back” after three pregnancies. So is it shocking to realize that Kourtney has lost so much weight that she’s down to 98 pounds?

It won’t be long before Kourtney Kardashian‘s 8-year-old son Mason will be able to lift her up. In a deleted scene from Sunday’s episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, the eldest of the KarJenner siblings is hanging out in sister Khloé Kardashian‘s kitchen. After Kourtney mixes up a salad and talks about going for a run in the heat, Khloé tells friend Simon Gebrelul, “You know she’s 97 lbs.?”

“Guess what? I gained a pound,” Kourtney corrects her. “I’m 98 [lbs].”

She adds, “You know Mason is 62 [lbs.]?”

The pint-sized star, 38, has never shied away from sharing the number on the scale with her fans. After giving birth to her third child with Scott Disick, son Reign, in December 2014, she documented herself getting back into pre-baby shape. In one Instagram photo posted in April 2015, Kourtney revealed she weighed in at a svelte 116 lbs. — and shut down her haters in the caption.

“I’m 5 feet tall, so everyone relax,” she wrote. “I’m on a workout kick, trying to bring some Monday motivation.”

[From People]

98 pounds for someone five feet tall isn’t super-crazy. But do you believe it? Eh. Kourtney is the least “worked on” Kardashian-Jenner, but I’m not sure if I believe that she A) achieved this weight loss 100% naturally and B) is really 98 pounds. That being said, I do think Kourt’s height is throwing me off, just as Kim’s height throws me off. I tend to think they’re taller than they actually are, but both women are pretty short, and Kourtney is very “fine-boned,” if that makes sense. I guess I’m coming around to the idea that Kourtney weighs less than a 100 pounds.

    i was 100lbs flat in high school and 5″5, pretty tiny. she believe it, she looks pretty small to me.

    • INeedANap says:

      I am 5’1″ and I weigh 115-120 lbs, which sounds small until you look at me. I am what some local gentlemen affectionately call “thick”.

      I am not fine-boned like Courtney so when I drop weight my large ribcage looks like something out of a horror movie, hence the extra pasta…which is what I tell myself.

    • Em says:

      I’m 5’3″ and weigh 116lb and am considered curvey ,so I wouldn’t be surprised if she is 100lb or less.

  2. Delta Juliet says:

    When I graduated high school I was 5’2″ and weighed 98 pounds. Without a healthy diet OR exercise. Of course I hadn’t had kids at that time either but I see how it’s possible.

    • Olive says:

      i’m the same height as you and i’ve been less than 100lb as an adult, too. i believe kourtney, she’s always been more petite than kim AND never got the butt implants to weigh her down.

    • Chaine says:

      same here. back in the day… of course I’ve put on nearly 40 lbs since then and grew awful DDD boobs…

  3. HH says:

    Kourtney is not only short, but she has a small frame as well. If that’s what you meant by “fine boned.” So I could see her weighing that little.

    • Horsforth says:

      98lbs is almost an underweight BMI. If she works out at all, she is likely underweight for her height – I’m 5 foot too, 110 – 130 is healthy weight for that height…. Sadly after 2 years of autoimmune issues I’m nowhere near that at the moment.

      • Beth says:

        98 pounds for someone 5’0 is a BMI of 19.1. Although there is some debate about using BMI as a measurement of healthy, 19.1 is well above the “underweight” category (18.5). 130 pounds at her height is actually within the “overweight” category. Kourtney has a small frame and minimal apparent muscle. I believe that she’s that light.

      • HH says:

        She is about 5-6 lbs under the lowest weight range for being her height with a small frame. However, given that she’s carried three children healthily, I don’t want to categorize her as dangerously underweight or unhealthy. She eats well and works out. I’m not seeing any unhealthy habits. Although, I do hope at some point she does not continue to put so much focus on the number on the scale.

      • Jojo says:

        98 lbs is perfectly fine for a 5 ft tall woman.

      • Jag says:

        95 pounds was on the low end for me at 5′ 1.5″ 30 years ago. The height/weight chart has been increased as time has gone on because many Americans are fatter these days – myself included. Along with clothing sizes getting bigger without a larger number, the average weight for height has gone up, too.

        I was 98 pounds going into my Junion year in high school. I remember it because it was a goal to be under 100 pounds at that time, in my circle of friends. I wasn’t skinny at that weight; I just didn’t have extra fat anywhere but my breasts and butt as one would expect in an average-weight person. Yes, I am also “fine boned.”

        So as others are saying, I don’t think that she looks unhealthy at that weight.

    • holly says:

      That’s me, 5 ft and a little less than 98 pounds. Not skinny, that’s just the way I am.

  4. Izzy says:

    She also doesn’t have 15 lbs of ass-filler weighing her down.

  5. Twinkle says:

    She’s actually a healthy weight. The DOH and AMA recommend that a 5′ tall woman should weigh 100 lbs. and 5 lbs for each inch over 5′. It’s just the rest of us that are fat.

    • BendyWendy says:

      I’m 5’5” and at 125 lbs I am skeletal. I know because I got there last year (health issues) and it was not a good look.

      I understand that as a nation we’re too large, but I think that number is ridiculous. I look much better at 135. Still slender, but not like I’m going to pass out at any moment.

    • Eden75 says:

      I’m the same height as Kim and at my skinniest since having kids I was 130. You could count my ribs (and yet that booty just kept following me). I was in the best shape of my life according to my doc yet the BMI scale would have me as fat at that. I’ll take my 130 and looking healthy and fit over the 110 that the charts say I should be and looking like a lab room skeleton with a KK a$$.

  6. tracking says:

    5′ 98 pounds doesn’t seem unreasonable to me. She’s tiny.

  7. me says:

    I believe her. She is tiny. I think she did it naturally too. She works out a lot and actually eats very clean.

  8. Bishg says:

    MM, no. She’s slender but she’s nowhere near that weight.

    • Reginaphalange says:

      Ummm I’m 5’8” and 114 #s. I used to be a model- I know what skinny looks like. This woman looks like exactly what she says she is.

    • Siiiigh says:

      This is a normal weight for someone of this size, especially considering her shape. My family is full of tiny women, and very few of them are over 100 lbs. It’s just normal.

  9. huckle says:

    I don’t understand the wearing of a jacket or coat half on. Either put it on or take it off. Seeing people wear outerwear like is annoying af. What is the point of that?

    • me says:

      Because to a Kardashian/Jenner, they are always on a runway. They leave the house just to show off their clothes. Look how big her bag is. Is it empty inside? How is she able to carry that around all day?

    • Lacia Can says:

      All the money they have and they wear the ugliest stuff. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an outfit on any of them that made me want to buy it. Kim is the worst offender but Kourtney’s outfits here are almost as fug. Plus the way they accessorize is horrid. Stilettos with track suits. Transparent platforms with trench coats and workout shorts. Good god they have zero style.

    • CatFoodJunkie says:

      I always assumed it was a** covering – esp with Kim and Khloé. With Kourtney – those pants prolllly don’t look that good from behind LOL.

  10. JA says:

    I’m almost 5’2 but no way near 100lbs, closer to 122 but I have a very wide back and B+ almost C breasts. People always assume if you’re short you’re petite EVERYWHERE but we come in all shapes. I do wish I was smaller in the chest/waist area…difficult finding pieces that fit such a short torso/legs but provide coverage in the middle.

  11. Steph says:

    Ehh. I’m 5’1 but when I was that skinny it’s because I had a terrible depression. I was hungry all the time but I felt nauseous from anxiety. Now I’m 113lb but I don’t feel fat at all.

  12. Tara Beth says:

    Why do these people lie? I weighed 98 lbs in 10th grade. At 5’2″. This person is not 98 lbs. What purpose does this lie serve?

  13. Happy21 says:

    I have a very close friend who is about 4’10” and she is 98 pounds and she looks ill. She isn’t but she looks it. When my other friends who don’t really know her see her they always question if she’s sick or whether she has an eating disorder. She doesn’t. She does try to stay small though. I don’t think it looks good.
    So, no, I do not believe that Courtney is 98 lbs. She is 2 inches taller than my friend, granted, but she doesn’t look nearly as thin.

  14. meg says:

    the purpose of this was to brag, which will only encourage people to have eating disorders to keep up with this kardashian who lies about if she really weighs this much, and if so how she obtained it just like they don’t have work done to their faces and butts? what liars. ‘don’t you want to be like us?’ actually no-your lives are lies.

  15. Felice says:

    She looks fine to me. She needs to try something different with her hair…..bangs or an asymmetrical haircut. It would help her stand out from the clan. Something a little edgy.

  16. HeyThere! says:

    She is tiny and super short. I believe her. I’m 5’8” and have been 98 pounds at that weight naturally thin(literally I ate an entire pizza to myself in the high school days)! I just had a baby so I’m not that weight now, nor do I want to be. I prefer 115-120 pounds for myself. Genetics are huge. I come from a family of tall, thin people. I bet of people saw her in person they would believe her.

  17. Patty says:

    I believe her. She’s tiny and the camera adds 10lbs. She was 115-120 after her last baby and she’s significantly smaller now. She’s normal weight and size. And everyone carries weight differently. All 5 feet 98 lb women don’t look or carry their weight the same.

  18. TrixC says:

    I believe her. I’m 5’3” and weigh 110 pounds and she looks to be a similar size and shape to me, but shorter.

  19. Jen says:

    I’m also 5’0 and weigh 98lb. It’s perfectly normal for someone of my height. I’m also 33 years old, so its not like I’m really young. Some people are just naturally thin?

    • Alexandria says:

      Hi, same so I believe her weight. I had to do conversions to kg and cm lol. I rarely weigh myself. Last I weighed myself I was 44kg. Now I think I’ve lost weight because I cut down carbs from gluten (but I did not cut it to lose weight). She is gluten free and she works out (I don’t). So not surprised. Question is even if we believe it, are all of us at healthy weight? I am not sure…

  20. Jay says:

    I am 5’1 since like 9th grade, and from 2001-2011 weighed 101.5lbs. And while i was pretty tiny, my legs have always been where I carried my chub, so I always had thick legs. Since 2011 I have gained like 40lbs. >:/ I have an hourglass shape (and went up like 4 cup sizes!) and my friends all say I still look small, but MAN IS IT UNCOMFORTABLE. I can’t get it down even though I’ve revamped how I eat. :/ It just keeps going up. And I can’t even blame it on my BC because that didn’t really affect it that much, from my tracking.

    Sigh.

    Anyway, 98 at 5′ isn’t nuts. I believe her. I’m just jealous!!

  21. jessica says:

    5 foot 1″ here. Weigh 132lbs. All in my gut and my a$$. I used to be 105 back in the day. Then late 20s came and it went all downhill. I also eat like crap and drink a ton of wine so that’s on me

  22. Ozogirl says:

    I believe it. She’s petite. Now why she would share that information, I’m not so sure.

  23. isabelle says:

    My mom was Kourtney size and never even when pregnant beyond 100lbs. Its a normal weight range for someone 5 foot or under. I’n 5’7 and can weight 120 without being underweight

  24. Blonde555 says:

    I don’t care. She can be 5’0 and 98 pounds or 158 pounds and will always look way better than her plastic surgery botched Klan sisters.

  25. Lilith says:

    I’m 5’1” and my normal weight is about 120. I was down to 98 lbs one time in my life and I hated it. I thought I looked bony and definitely lost all my curves. My current body type is “thick” and I prefer that. But, we all have different frames and carry weight differently. I believe Kourtney could be 98lbs but still looks great.

  26. Justwastingtime says:

    Have seen her IRL (with kids and baby daddy at a restaurant)

    Yup to both.

  27. Lynne says:

    I’ve seen her and kim irl. Kim is about 5 ft 1 max and kourtney about 4 ft 10…..she is very small boned.
    Her face looks different, something about the eyes, hope it’s just bad makeup because she looks a little pulled.
