It's common in English to say "I'm 5 kilos overweight" OR "I have to/need to lose 5 kilos."

Help IT->EN "ho qualche Kg di troppo"

How can I say that I'm some Kg above my ideal weight ?

For example, if someone asks me why I'm doing a diet, in Italian I would answer,"Ho qualche Kg di troppo"

Thank you all for help

I am American, so I would speak about pounds.

The translation in a literal way, is "I have some kilograms too much" (sì? più o meno)

You can always answer in different ways. Here are a few: I have a few extra pounds, I am a little overweight. Conversationally, we might say "I could stand to lose some weight"
