NP. I wouldn’t say you’re a “fatass” (such a vulgar term) but I’m 5’8” and 110 and I am slender but nowhere near emaciated. I can only imagine I would look a bit thick at this weight half a foot shorter.
Whoa - that's some really disordered thinking.
Right? In what world is someone who is 5'2 and 110 pounds "a bit thick"? I'm also 5''2 and 110. I wear a size 0 and am routinely told how "tiny" I am.
Pp who is 5'8 and 110, I am quite certain you look like skeletor and people you know speculate that you probably have an eating disorder.
There are naturally slender people. It is unkind to call someone skeletal .
5'2 and 110 pounds is "slender." The Pp who is 5'8 and 110 is not only rude but probably looks like she is ill.
Agreed. 5’6” and slim here. To the anorexic morons here, proudly posting grossly underweight stats: you wear your mental illness like a badge of honor. Don’t f-ck up your daughters (too late, probably) and get some goddamned therapy.

While weight, hair care and skin care are important, the easiest fix is your clothing.
I don't care how gorgeous you are -- if I see you dressed like this when you're not hiking, camping, gardening, etc., I know you've thrown in the towel. Top them off with some Keens and it's off to the races.

I'm 5'8 and 112 and no one seems to think that about me. I doubt those two lbs make a huge difference. Some people just carry weight differently. While I'll admit its easier to be skinny than overweight (I imagine, at least) people still feel entitled to comment rudely on your weight. Just stop, please.

She has a BMI of 16.7. That's severely underweight. Some people in her condition are hospitalized.

I'm 58 and now at 165lbs, 5'11" weigh 10 lbs more than when I was 9 months pregnant. I was 125 to 130 lbs until I hit 40 and then the weight slowly started creeping up. I did not look anorexic and I ate whatever I wanted but just didn't overeat often.
I have a small frame and was really skinny, barely 110lbs and was my full height when I was a teen. Some of us are just built that way and calling people skeletal or anorexic is cruel. Being really tall and really thin was not stylish in the 70s like it is now and it took me a long time to get over all the comments that were made about my body.
Be kind.

It definitely takes a lot more work to maintain your looks as you get older, especially once you have kids. For me, this is what I focus on: (1) Maintain a healthy weight for your body, ideally in the “normal” BMI range. (2) Eat a healthy diet and avoid processed foods and sugar. (3) Find an exercise routine that you enjoy and that you can do several times a week, consistently. Ideally do something that incorporates weights a few times a week. (4) Stop drinking so much and ideally limit alcohol to only 2-3 drinks on the weekends, if that. (5) Get as much sleep as humanly possible (at least 7 hours a night). (6) Wear sunscreen religiously and reapply throughout the day. (7) invest in a skincare routine that targets fine lines and signs of aging. (8) Invest in your wardrobe and buy clothing that is flattering to you and that looks current. (9) Maintain a hairstyle that is flattering to you and that looks neat and healthy at all times.
Honestly tips 1-6 are the basic underpinnings for maintaining good health, so there is really no reason not to follow them to the best of your ability. 7-9 are more about vanity. I tell myself that if I maintain my body, get plenty of sleep and take care of my skin, I can get away with wearing less stylish clothing, as long as what I wear is flattering.

My pre-teen weighs about 110 and is 5'6. He's on medication that we think is the reason he is rail thin. He looks awful without his shirt on, poor thing. Bones and ribs jut out. I don't see how it's possible for a 5'8" adult to be that thin naturally. Most likely the fat-shamer is dieting to be that weight.

Anonymous wrote:I’m 37. I’ve let myself go. Here’s how it happened and you can see what you can avoid. I used to eat healthy and work out regularly.
I have 3 kids between the ages of 4 and 9 (I had them when I was 27, 30, 33). After each pregnancy I basically held on to 8 lbs that I never lost, so now I am up 25 lbs on my 2008 pre kids weight.
I work part time while the kids are in school but that doesn’t mean I have free time - it means I’m with kids, then working, then with kids.
I’m really tired. I don’t work out - I try to walk some but it’s not enough. I eat fast / easy to prep stuff and I have a sweet tooth.
Despite all this I could still theoretically put care into what I wear, wear contacts, blow dry my hair, wear make up and I would look at least 50% better but most of the time I can’t even muster that.
Other people do look better than me who work and have kids. They are just better people than me!! Or maybe I’m wasting too much time volunteering at kids activities and they’re saying no. Idk.
I am with you, pp. If it makes you feel any better, I have lost some of the weight recently, and it just makes the frumpiness that much worse. Now, not only do I have graying hair and an out of style wardrobe, all of my clothes are baggy and ill-fitting.
I’m sure that I should go shopping, but I just never care to spend my limited free time on yet another errand.

You're way too skinny. Stop trying to be a 15 year old catwalk model and eat a solid meal for once.
Ugh. I’m 5’11” and weigh 125. I have been this weight (outside of pregnancy) since college. It is just how I am built. I am so sick of hearing that I “need to eat” (the few times I’ve actually tracked my calories I hit at least 2500/day!) and that “real women have curves”. It’s so insulting. Some of us are thin and it’s ok.
