    Default How much do you think I weigh?

    be honest. I'm just asking because I got weighed today at the doctor (i don't weigh myself) and it was more than I thought. kinda pissed. I've been trying to slim down for what seems like forever but I just kind of stay at this weight no matter what, like it's my set point. I have a medium frame and I'm 5'7. I have quite a bit of muscle from dancing. I think I'd look better and make more money and be more confident for modeling jobs if I were 10 pounds thinner.

    the specific things that bother me about my body:
    "thick" calves, thighs
    wide hips/high hips
    lack of small defined waist
    arms have muscle but are covered in fat

    I think getting rid of 10 pounds of fat would fix these problems... i'm just going to do stairmaster 45 minutes everyday,- i've been so inconsistent with working out. I tried the whole weight training to build muscle mass to burn more calories thing but i build muscle so easily and so quickly that it just makes me look bulkier, i need to burn the fat off, then tone.

    i chose the least flattering front picture (not the full length one) to show how my stomach is. no/high waist. ew.

    I guess i look okay, i make good money, but it's about time for this extra 10-15 to go away.

    guess.

    *i'm asking because I want to see if i really look as heavy as I think I do, be honest- it will inspire me to kick my ass at the gym!

    I'm going to say 140-145 ONLY BECAUSE we have a very similar body and I'm always kind of weirded out that the scale says that, myself.

    Either way, I love our body and wish I was your height.

    ^^ Babe...you are GOOORGEOUS! You really don't need to lose any weight, especially at 5' 7". Goodness, I'd give anything to look like you again, and you do NOT have 'thick' thighs and calves....I do tho'!

    I'd put you at around 9.5 stone....that's about 133lbs.

    Am I close?

    luscious sadie- can you post a pic of your body? I'm curious now.

    I'm only going to keep the pics up another day or so, because this is a public forum

    keep guessing!

    You are hot. Numbers are just that, numbers. I get the EXACT same way when I get weighed. I'm 5'9 and when I see what I consider "big" numbers I get worked up. But seriously, it doesn't matter cuz you're hot. Don't lose more than 10 pounds.

    You look fantastic. Who cares what the numbers say! I don't own a scale, so I am sometimes surprised by what I weight when I go to the doctor. I have definitely gained weight since I started working out a lot, but I look better than ever. Don't stress!

    I think you look good now, but there's nothing wrong with wanting to get leaner. It's not like you'll be hurting yourself to get a little more ab definition or tighten up.

    I know you didn't ask for advice but you might want to tighten up your diet. Please don't take that as an insult because I have no idea how you eat now. I just know that when I decided to drop some fat and lean out, my diet seemed to have much more of an effect than my workouts. Eating lots of veggies and lean proteins while limiting carbs and sugars leaned me out without having to increase my workouts or count calories.

    Just wanted to add, I don't want to try to guess your weight because I'm super bad at that. I'm a muscley little thing who weighs much heavier than I look so I don't have a good idea of what women should weigh.

    Well this is my first post ever (total lurker) but I have had the exact same experience. First of all, you look amazing. But your laundry list of complaints is exactly the same as mine. Like you, I went to the doctor recently and was like "wuhh?!" when I stepped on the scale. NOT a happy camper. I'm 5'4" and 137 (mostly ass). I tried weight training to burn fat and only bulked up really quickly too. That myth that women can't bulk up is completely bogus. I looked like I was ready to compete! Ugh! I have no idea how much you weigh, just wanted to say I can totally relate.

    I'll post some pics later when I get some time.

    Since I've started dancing I've lost a visible amount of weight. But the scale stays at the same numbers because muscle weighs more than fat.

    my diet isn't the issue~ i eat a gluten-free high raw all vegan diet full of whole foods, nothing processed, fried or bad- i'm a health nut. It's a matter of getting lots of cardio and burning off the fat- I know it sounds like an excuse but I have struggled with staying thin my whole life- my father's side of the family is all over weight and my brother and sister are too- I dont know if there's a fat gene, but it seems like I definitely have to work hard and keep my diet super clean to stay at this weight.

    it also might have something to do with being a recovered anorexic- in my teenage years I weighed anywhere from 105 at my lowest ( at this height) to around 128 when I graduated high school... but tended to stay at 118-- which looked extremely bony and unhealthy on me because of my bone structure.

    I want to get back down to 130 and maintain it. There's a girl at my work who is 130 and my height with lots of muscle and she looks amazing.

    The scale at the doctor said 145!!!! ugh. The scale at home says 140 though when I weighed myself first thing in the morning naked.

    so.... thanks for verifying that i look as fat as I feel!!! off to the gym! every day! one hour of cardio a day til i'm 130 again... this is ridiculous.

    ~ I posted some more pics ... I know I look acceptable for the club, I'm just a perfectionist and I really feel like I'd be more comfortable with myself if I peeled off 10 pounds of fat to reveal more muscle- I look soft/curvy right now, which men like- but I don't on me any more- i want to look compact, toned and slim.

    Is this self-flagellation? Are you trying to make yourself feel bad? Why ask a bunch of strangers to guess your weight when you obviously look amazing and said you make great money?

    There is only so much we can do about the build we are given. Most of us are not viable for modeling. But you actually are because you have many beautiful features. So you are not the supermodel ectomorph type, its ok. Do you really think the way you look right now is stopping you from accomplishing anything in your life? Because you are THE picture of youthful health, vigor, and natural beauty.

    I am sorry if the above is harsh. I'm kind of a hypocrite for saying it too because I had those thoughts when I was 20 pounds slimmer and perfect. But I wanted more.

    If you want to become very lean, the best thing to do is jogging/running. You will catabolize and lose muscle in the process, but its really the most effective way to lean your body up.

    idk, I'm horrible at guessing people's weights.

    EDIT: oh, and I think the black fishnet you're wearing in those pics make your legs look chubbier than they are.

    ^ i just wrote above that the doc's scale said 145 and my home scale in the morning with no clothes says 140--- so i guess i weigh 140 because i was super hydrated and wearing lots of clothes at the doc's.

    um no it's not self-flagellation i just have body dysmorphic disorder and i'm trying to determine if i'm really as fat as I think I am.

    I hate running and I don't want to do it- I prefer hiking, walking, rollerblading, stairmaster-- have you seen runner's faces when they get old? saggy and bony from the high impact and I can't do that to my knees! 7 inch heels is enough! Occasionally I get into a phase where I'll try to get into running, but I find it boring, not meditative, and my right knee always acts up, and despite being aerobically fit enough to hike miles and miles at high elevation- running makes me feel like i'm dying.

    you really think the fishnet makes my legs look fat? I thought they made my legs look slimmer. I also want to add that I'm size 6, 27 or 28 in jeans depending on the brand, 34B-27.5-38... it would be cool to fit into size 26 jeans again and have a 26 inch waist, I think those are attainable goals.

    I hear you on the running. My joints can't take it. Although ironically, I surf, which in some ways is way rougher on the body. (It's great exercise, but it does tone your shoulders and arms, which may or may not mean more muscle).

    You're a size 6 too? I get so confused at the sizes. I'm 34-26-36, and I thought I was a size 6. meh

    And the fishnet slims your knees and calves, but it makes it look like you have a spare tire on your hips and the top parts of your thighs (even though you don't). Not saying that you're fat, because I know a huge percentage of guys like curvy girls, it's my observation.

    But again, you don't look fat, dammit. You look awesomely strong and stocky, like a sturdy mesomorph. I'm 5'11 and 129 lbs, but I have hardly any muscle except for my shoulders and arms, and that's from surfing half my life. And I'm sick of guys thinking I'm some dainty little daisy just because I've got light bones and a fast metabolism. Consider yourself lucky. Especially since you eat FAR healthier than I do.

    I run 5-10k races regularly... there's a good mixed crowd that shows up to these events... a lot of them are older runners. ...They're not a bunch of saggy and bony faced old hags. On the whole... older runners look WAY better than the average person I see on the street both in face and body.

    There's a good chance you're both a size 6... depending on the pants. Pants size is so random depending on the brand.

    I think u look thin( i thought u LOOKED 135). I also feel that u have made things worse on urself by asking us all. Its almost like u wanted us to make u feel shitty when like someone previously said u have an amazing body and obviously make great money. If u want to lose more weight go for it but u look great the way u r.

    Isis you have great genetics, a lot of women wold love to look like that. The second pic in the first group your abs & obliques are in & look great. You are carrying some muscle so the number on the scale will be high but you are no where near fat. It wouldn't take much for you to be at the top of your game.
