[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on your build. I am 5ft7 and 115ish. I look healthy and have a nice body. At 140, I'd look overweight. Someone with my same height with a different build would look underweight at my weight. I'm sure you look fine.[/quote] This thread seems to be a convergence of anorexics.[/quote] This is a competitive town. Most of my friends are a size zero. It's like the Incredible Shrinking Moms. Every time I see them, they're skinnier. I'm the same height and weight as OP, and I am large compared to every mom friend, with only one exception.[/quote] I'm at the gym 6 days a week, so I see these women. They are rail thin and almost look diseased. It just does not look good and on a woman who is 35 and over it just flat out makes them look old. Super skinny looks nrmal on a teen, a size zero or two on a grown woman just looks frail and old. I'm not sure if I agree with you that it is competition. I think middle to upper class women are plagued with body image and food disorders. They are chasing down a time in their lives long long ago and have a warped view of what looks good. To the OP, if you think 140 is overweight, you need help. If you are flabby, then you don't need a diet, but you need a gym with some weights.[/quote] I disagree. It is a competition. And they look great, which is why they do it/want to do it. There are very few heavy socialites in this area. And even fewer fat wannabee-socialites. [/quote]
