Only honest answers please...or don't respond.

No. You are not a stick (I have no idea why the fashion world seems to be utterly biased toward 'thin', read 'stick'), nor are you 'fat'.

Different people have different tastes, but you are not fat. If people call you that or you think that, I imagine that they either don't know what "fat" really is or they are just trying to be mean.

I hope that was the (hopefully not so brutally) honest answer you were looking for. God bless.

 

[undecided]

no i dont think you are fat
i think you are kellogs just right, not to heavy not to light (-:

i sort of always feel huge because i am not some stick but i just try to block those negative thoughts, cos i quiet like curves on women so if some ppl wanna have/or just do have the "ideal" body, then thats nice for them lol but it doesnt have to be what u want

(i am such a hypocrite, lol, i know exactly how u feel lol....but it only hits u every now and then huh!)

Nope you're not fat, you're what a size 12? (uk sizes....not sure what u.s is.

Our sizes go, 8 (skinny) 10 (skinnyish) 12 ( curvy) 14 (curvier) 16 ( plumpish but apparantly the U.K average size, 18- fat , 20, fatter etc

no, youre not fat. honestly. people just think they're fat cause of girls on tv and in mags that are super skinny. as long as ur in a healthy weight range ur fine.

OK, I saw lots of pictures of you there. I think that you are medium or average sized. You are neither underweight enough nor overweight enough for it to be an issue.

You need to be healthy and feel good physically. You don't need to look any different. I can see where you could be a little thinner or more toned if you wanted to without doing yourself any harm. But you are not in the "fat" category.

You look good.

 

[melandshanetria]

No, you're not fat, just healthy.

 

[pibsts]

nah not fat. i'd say average. but in today's society, it seems any woman over 150 lbs sadly. i think i'm too skinny...for a guy. i wish i was 200lbs and not 150. normally the optimum weight for females is around 120lbs and for guys its 180lbs.

 

[adamas]

you look kinda like a reindeer ;P lol ! JK! no honestly yer not fat. . .yer a good size. . .cuz yer not fat and you're not sickingly anorexic(sp?) looking!

I'm surprised that so many would answer this question. And you guys are all right (yes, it is possible! Hehe).

I need to loose about 20-30 pounds, but that much makes me feel fat. My bf likes me the way that I am (this he says a lot) but I feel insecure about myself in a society where thin people are thought to be better and I feel like I should be thinner for my bf. I mean, thin people are the ones that guys look at and admire; even my bf can't help looking at others from time to time. I just feel that I'm missing something because of how I look; but my childhood made me insecure because my parents (and siblings sometimes) made me feel bad about how I looked...and called me fat, etc.

When my bf doesn't compliment me regularly then the negative thoughts can take hold so fast and my mind tells me that he doesn't do it very often because he doesn't really find me attractive. I know guys just forget...but it is still hard for me to work with in my mind.

I was working out regularly, though I haven't recently because things got busy. However, once Christmas is over, it is back to working out and eating better again. I just find it really hard to loose weight. I can eat a low amount of calories and work out, and just maintain my weight.

There is nothing wrong with how you look at all.
Why do you feel you need to lose 20-30 pounds?

 

[trinitygrace]

You have nothing to worry about. I know we all worry about our weight being young women (I'm 22) but from your pics, you are definitely not fat but look healthy. I hate seeing all the skinny, anorexic models on TV and in magazines. They look so fake and like they are about ready to pass out from not eating. You wouldn't want to look sick, not do you? I think you look like a very healthy weight. Don't worry about it and enjoy the holidays!

 

[pibsts]

actually i think there is a trend that guys are starting to want more 'junk in the trunk' type girls. basically the skinny is starting to go out. skeleton girls are becoming less attractive. if you say ya wish to lose weight, then more power to ya...go for it. you are the only one in control of your body, do what you wish as long as Christ accepts it and you are happy. for me, i've been working out more and eating more protein type diets to gain muscle mass...so that's what i'm changing my body. and ya know...working out makes you less stressful and very great for you mind and sleeping schedules. exercise is vital, and it irritates me when people complain they are fat and do nothing about it. yeah it's hard, but so is life. i guess if that's what ya want to hear, then great. if you are happy w/ yourself, great, but don't give up on exercising!

 

[Hediru]

If you're fat, then I'm a blimp. Seriously, you look A-ok to me. Don't worry about it.

 

[Eyes2wardsHeaven]

No your not fat at all. I feel the same way, but Im working out and Ive lost only 5 pounds but what a difference it makes. You dont have to lose weight in order to feel not fat and bloated, it feels so good to exercise. Thats how I feel when I exercise, it makes me feel skinny, even when I didnt even lose weight. lol

 

[MissEloquent]

yeah i would have to agree with everyone, as long as you have a healthy weight and bmi, thats the way you should keep it, loosing weight can be good but it can easily turn into an obsession, i wouldnt worry to much u look perfectly healthy
cheers mate
