It’s like a balloon of fat from forearm to fingers. OP is nothing like this person.

Lol people who aren't obese have cankles. Seems like no one here knows what a cankle is.

My niece is one of those. Her lower legs and ankles look like part of a small tree trunk, regardless of her weight (she's been up and down and up over the years).

Ok let's put this to rest. She has cankles. Here is a woman with cankles before surgery and after with no cankles. Cankles are thick ankles.

LOL what was operated on here, exactly? She lost ten pounds and went to the tanning bed.

Not cankles. You have solid calves but there’s definition. To see skinny women who have cankles, google Lady Victoria Hervey and cankles.

She had liposuction for her cankles. If you're as thin as you're going to get and still have cankles you can get plastic surgery

Cankles are thick ankles which she has. Period.

Dear OP-You look great. I think of ankles like earlobes--they just are. Focus on the things that you can control and forget the rest.

It’s people like you who made me incredibly self conscious about my legs when I was younger. I starved myself at one point to try to get my legs to look “normal” and even at 5’8” and 115 pounds, I still had tree trunk shaped legs. I have considered the surgery that the person in this photo had, but I decided to try and accept the body I was given. You come off as an ass.

They don’t look fat to me - they look athletic.

WTH - her ankles look exactly the same in both picks. She didn’t have cankles to start with.

Cankles to me are when the width of the calf is the same as the width of the ankle. OP doesn't have cankles.

Thanks to whoever tipped us off about lady victoria. The first picture in this article is exactly what I envisioned when I said a skinny woman whose calves merged with her feet.
