How much do you weigh?

I knew I was good when a man (pervert of course) told me that my thighs would keep his ears warm.

How could you not love yourself after that???

I'm guessing about 150 pounds. I don't own a scale.

---

I love this!!

This is probably the healthiest thing I've ever heard someone say.

---

I don't base my weight on the numbers. I base it on how my clothes fit and how I feel. I'm a 8-10 now so I'd like to get back down to a 6.

the other things is I am bottom, not top heavy so I carry most of my weight in my monstrous behind, hips, and thighs......and muscle is also heavier than fat.

---

me too! In college one guy gave me the nickname JITT (junk in the trunk - GRRR!). Meanwhile if I diet I end up losing weight in my face, arms, boobs and stomach - where I really don't need to be losing weight!

Even if I lose 30 pounds I'll still have my bubble butt! Which of course FI loves

mine will never go away- I embrace it now

I started running on an incline on the treadmill- and it actually got better

I was shocked- I actually like my butt now- it's nuts!

Use a BMI calculator to determine if you are obese or not.

---

well, that what I did. I got a new scale, the scale reads BMI .... scale said I was obese.... scale hurt my feelings....

---

I would get rid of that scale!! Like the others have said, weight is just a number.
Don't make changes for a mechanical device - do it for yourself to get healthy, or stay healthy. If you were okay with the image in the mirror before the scale, I would say there is nothing wrong except the scale.

too much

I am 5'5' and i weigh 121 as of this morning

but back in July I was about 140

I did WW.

I would like to be 115 but right now i am focusing on maintaining the 121.

I am about 5'6'1/2 and weight about 140-145, depending on the week. AM I slim, not really, and I want to loose about 10 lbs, but I don't think I am obese either.

the other things is I am bottom, not top heavy so I carry most of my weight in my monstrous behind, hips, and thighs......and muscle is also heavier than fat.

and remember, some girls may be at the other end of the spectrum...being too thin is unhealthy too.

CaMAcho, I do want to say that I am envious of you every time I see your epics...I think all of those positions would have given my poor fh a hernia!

---

Awww you are too cute Jess! My FH was looking at the comp screen the other day and saw your avatar pic and he was like 'Wow thats such a great pic!' Then I told him about all the things we have in common!

I am 5'4 and my weight is 108.
But I still need to lose around 8 more pounds especially my belly and I have a chubby cheek.

Im HATING my body these days bc i suffer from a bad stomach condition and my stomach decides at a moments notice that it wants to distend itself to 3x its normal size. I truly could pass for a first trimester pregnant woman and im MISERABLE and there is NOTHING the dr can do for me

I'm heavier then that pic.... it was taken 3 years ago! I'm about 20 pound heavier now.... I recently lost a few pounds... but t seems to be coming off my chest... how terrible! I am really bottom heavy, I wanted that to come off and my chest to stay the same.... but it's shrinking! My huge bottom is not shrinking

---

Don't worry I used to be 174, and I'm only 5'2' I lost 30 lbs, and I've been keeping it off, and now I'm about a size 10, sometimes a size 8. I'm trying to lose 20 more lbs. for the wedding. I NEVER thougtht I'd lose the weight. I was sooooo unhappy with myself. But I had a health scare and decided to lose the weight so I never had to worry about diabetes. Bottom line: if you want to lose the weight, you can do it. There are a bunch of different diets out there, and you could also see a nutritionist or even a personal trainer. You can do it!! So no worries

BMI told me I am overweight and to be honest..NO I am not skinny BUT I am far from obese...I need to loose like 10 - 15 pounds
I am 5'2 and 135-140 depending on the day and time of month and i would like to loose some, but i am happy most days i still wear a 6 sometimes but mostly an 8

I have the exact same problem! Its flat in the morning and i eat the smallest thing and i look pregnant...told doctor and said nothing he can do, suggested gas pills and nothing happened

They tell me that too, but no one ever comes close to guessing my weight. It's a lot for my height, but I don't look as heavy as I weigh. Don't let it get to you! For me, I've always tried to let clothes I like and how I look in them be my judge, not my weight or my size... which is not to say that I don't want to lose in either - I do, but I try not to let the numbers get me down. If I'm obese, then most people I know are too.

ETA: I meant to quote your post about the charts telling you you're obese, but I messed up somehow.

It is important to know that obesity isnt just looking overweight or being heavier than you would like to be. It is measured legitimately and clinically - more than likely for insurance purposes. People haphazardly throw around the word 'obese' when they are 20 pounds overweight. Thats not obese - that is being overweight. Here is some info.

OBESITY INFO

Through my experience, I had a few rude awakenings and realized I was playing games with myself. I wasn't overweight. I was clinically obese even though I was tall and 'hid it well' according to so many people who couldn't believe I was 260 pounds.

Whats funny is that even though my sister had the same surgery 6 months after me, she lost more weight and is truly petite. When people say that their bodies arent meant to be a certain way, they are right. They look at us and say 'how come you didn't lose as much as she did?' It is because we arent the same people even though we come from the same parents. My body isnt meant to be a size 6. Though now that I think about it, I would be a size 6 if I had a tummy tuck. I dont have fat, just a lil extra skin. ICK.

UGH... look at a chart in any health book or site.

---

The chart says I'm obese..... I didn't think I was..... but the chart says I am

You are not obese!
