[quote=Anonymous]Remind yourself that there's a wide range of normal.

It's about looking and feeling healthy for YOU.

I would take it as a reminder to check in with yourself.  Are you taking good care of yourself.  Not in a "Do I look skinny enough" kind of way.  More in a "How do I truly feel about myself" kind of way.

Personally, I'd love to be 5'7" or 5'8 and maybe a size 6 or so.  Not super skinny but a particular look.  To me, that just seems attractive in an "easy," normal kind of way.  But it's not the way my body is built.

I'm 5'2" and truly look and feel my best at around a size 8.  I'm heavier than that right now, so yes, when I see women who look good at their particular size, it sometimes reminds me that I'm eating poorly and not exercising enough.  Would I call it jealousy?  Not really.  It just reminds me that I'd love to "magically" be at my ideal weight, though of course I know it doesn't happen that way.  I have to be willing to change my behaviors . . . . [/quote]
