Weight???

I recently travelled on a BA B767 from a European destination. One steward, the rest female Cabin Crew. It was most noticeable that apart from the one Steward and one female cabin crew they were all noticeably overweight, some very.
A GP in our party mentioned the CSD, he would class as borderline obese.
Not good to observe with bulging skirts and trousers. Not a good advert for the Brand.
Are there not any ongoing height vs.weight requirements apart from recruitment in BA?
Expecting a hammering from the PC Brigade, I would mention the female F/O also in the same class, but she would be monitored by her AME at her annual Aircrew medical.
