I don't understand why would you want to know her weight but her reaction is also silly.
If you think you are fat then it's obvious by just looking your self in the mirror. Now if you are thin then no matter what your weight is it's of no importance. So why get mad over a number?
I have a friend that weights 110-115kg and his 1.80. Normally you will think that he must be at least a little chubby if not fat. But no, the guy is completely normal. He just has the heaviest bone structure you ever saw.
He was once hit by a car and he didn't broke a bone while the car looked like it hit a pillar. We couldn't believe it when we saw it.

So why worry about your weight? Worry only about how you look. If i look in the mirror and i don't see a fatass i don't give a shit even if my weight is 200kg.

Eh. To me, weight is mostly a number. Weight is not a good representation of how healthy you are, because like someone mentioned, you can be pretty fit and still weight a lot. I know I gained weight when I was working out because I gained muscle. :B

I'm 5'6", 125lbs. (55 kg) If someone asks about my weight, I'll answer honestly and I won't be offended. However is their reaction is something like "WOW, that's a lot, fatass" I will be offended. I know I'm not fat. >.>

It's not really the weight that bothers me, it's more my bodytype and that's nothing I can change. I have wide shoulders, small bust, small hips, but big butt and thighs. (So basically quite boyish, except for the last parts.) Finding good jeans is a freaking pain because anything big enough to fit my butt is too big for my hips and vice versa. >.> I don't wear clothes of one size either - right now the jeans I'm wearing are a 2 I think. But at some stores I wear a 7. (different sizing system? -.-)

I worked out quite a bit for a while, from February to June, because I took a fitness course. Lemme tell you, I felt amazing and I looked pretty good too - got a bit of muscle on my arms and legs, nice toned tummy etc. Now I don't look quite as good, my tummy is the teeniest bit chubbier now. It's not the appearance of it that bothers me, but rather the fact that it's a measure of how much I've been neglecting myself. I don't want to be out of breath going DOWN a flight of stairs. :(

Unfortunately, it's my first year of university and I've been very, very busy. But I'm starting to buy acceptable athletic gear, and I'm going to be volunteering in my old teacher's taekwondoclub. So hopefully by the end of November I can get back to maintaining my health again :( My uni has a brand new gym, and the membership is included in the tuition. Plus they have an olympic size swimming pool. It's something I should be taking advantage of.

When it comes to nutrition, my parents cook all food from scratch, we try to reduce the ammount of fat we use and use olive oil instead of vegetable oil, etc, include veggies with the meal and such. I try to pack my lunch, too, because although my campus has healthy meals, buying food all the time breaks my wallet.

I never deny myself a chocolate bar if I want one, and that is a problem, because I've been quite stressed and eating a lot of them to mellow out. :/ So I started buying dark chocolate at a baking shop. I like the taste and it's actually not too bad for me...at least compared to the candy bars.

I asked her weight just to see if her reaction was similar to other people's stories in this thread. I couldnt give a damn what people weigh. Its so superficial to judge someone purely on apperance.

My best mate is 6ft 7 and is build like a tank. According to the BMI, he's morbidly obese but he has no health problems at all. its all bone structure and muscle.

I weigh a million pounds, :)

Even so, if I lost maybe 5-10 pounds of pure _fat_ I would be fairly slim. I'm just normally really heavy, so I see it as a ratio. My "happy" weight, and my "not so happy" weight. Right now it is the "not so happy"--I travel _a lot_, and university = busy = no time to work out = fat. I eat fairly healthy, though. For me the only bad things I consume are LIQUID. I'm talking sugar in my tea (so much tea), Chai Tea Latte with soy, a can of coke here or there, random juice consumption, a coffee here or there.. (Order of most consumed to least consumed).
I also am incredibly lactose intolerant and also some other food which I have not identified is making me sick.
I never eat chocolate bars, or milk products (I'm 99% lactose free!). Sometimes I eat chips. Salt and Vinegar chips is probably the worst thing I eat, and I eat 2 bags of it a month. See? Not doing too shabby for food. Never eat fast food, but I do eat out (see: travel a lot), and sometimes I buy candy on the road D: (that's the only time I buy coke too, usually).

So it is really just sugary liquids + busy with school and not working out = that little extra bit. But weight really doesn't matter. The weight I look good at (I'm starting to lose a little fat right now, I CAN GET BACK TO THIS) is heavier than most girls. Fuck you, I have wonderful breasts and a nice bottom, and even with this flab, a much smaller waist (my fat goes on my _thighs_ and my love handles, mostly. A little on my lower tummy, too). Also my water weight is all wack because of :estrogen: which is in :soy milk: and :birth control: and my ability to eat things is just wack and my weight is wack.

I used to be overweight when I was younger... and always got made fun of for it. I'm pretty sure me being chubby was the reason no one was my friend :/ my whole class is full of thin kids... but they were all shorter than me at the time. I thinned out over time, I'm about average, I think. I weigh 130 at 5'5.

I'm not too active, and I should be. :/ I don't really eat healthy...

Who asks anyone's weight? that's just a weird question.

alcurad said:
when is the line crossed between 'good' plumpness to bad?


When BMIs exceed about 23 (and yes, I know BMI is a fairly inaccurate measurement of body fat, due to muscle density and all that, but I don't like muscley people either). BMIs over 23ish is getting a bit too large for me. I like quite slender people without flubber or macho muscles or whatnot either way.


Wow. That's specific.

As for the question:
If you're talking about "ok" as in attractiveness, I think any line is pretty pretty arbitrary. There's so much at play with romantic attraction that in all likelihood, you'll probably find quite a few exceptions to whatever line you draw, and plenty of people who do absolutely nothing for you even when they have what you would consider an ideal body.

the biggest thing for me is that they're comfortable in their own skin, and I'd apply this to anyone, not just who I find attractive. I mean there are people who deny themselves to their own breaking point for aesthetics, and while they might be confident and eupohric when they're actually at their target weight, it really just hides an underlying self-loathing that could explode when they slip.

In short, I think people shouldn't worry about their weight for anything other than health or hobby reasons (ie sports). Attractiveness is so subjective anyway, it's not worth the stress.

A lot of the time looking around I feel huge since I'm around sizes 9-12 depending on the clothing, and all my friends are 0's-6's, but I also have a more muscular build and larger bone structure.

And I will say this, I am on a diet, but only because I am a little on the weighty side and want to get myself to a healthier weight in order to feel better, physically and about myself, and boost my energy levels. It's been working great so far, and I feel a lot better. I'm not so sick all the time anymore!

Young girls can be on diets without pressure from the media. I've seen thin girls on TV for years and it hasn't motivated me to get up and lose everything until I'm nothing. Now that I find that I'm losing more energy, and that it was recommended by my doctor to shed a few is when I've taken the initiative.

I hate it when people assume because you're on a diet that it's bad, and you really shouldn't be and this and that. Not everyone succumbs to the generally shallow minds of the media.

I think girls should just be their natural size, there is no point in making you life miserable by working out 4 hours a day and living on lettuce. I am pretty happy with how I look these days, it helps that I was born with a pretty nice body and face so I don't really have a problem with how I look, but when I was 17 I decided to see if I could get skinnier as a sort of experiment. I don't think I had an eating disorder but I did get a bit too obsessive at times. Anyway I got down to 105 lbs from 130 (which is probably about where I am again now) and look at pics of myself from back then and my arms look like sticks haha...but yeah, I think weight doesn't make *that* much of a difference as long as you're not overly skinny/ fat. Like I think I look fine now but I also looked fine when I was 115-120 and I would probably look fine at 140 (although I don't really want to gain more weight but who knows what will happen, some people's metabolisms slow down as they get older I guess)

I do not think that it matters in the slightest, it is completely arbitrary!

Of course, it would be horrible to get to middle age and have friends/family dying of weight-related conditions (eg. heart disease), so any size as long as the person is healthy.

It is all in the personality. Everyone here has probably noticed this: someone can look completely normal when you first meet them, and then quite literally seem more and more physically attractive the nicer they are, and vice versa. As in, you notice their positive (or negative, if they are meanies D:) features more and more.

Girls who are so goddamned obsessed about their weight just piss me off. Girls look best when they're fit, that is, they do not look emaciated like they'd be blown away into outer space if you just flicked a finger at them. At the same time, they also shouldn't be overweight to the extend where excess fats and flab can be seen obviously and till they can't walk properly.

Those girls who starve themselves are just asking for early death and unnecessary mental and physical torture. The same applies to those who don't limit their food intake.

Again, it amazes me how much you guys are biased and traumatized with models and anorectics.

So far I've only met one girl obsessed with her weight. I'm thinner than her so she adores me. It's creepy. Sometimes everyone gets really uncomfortable when she points to a perfectly normal girl and says "ew, so fat!". But it's also you guy's fault, that mocked her when she was a bit more on the heavy side. And because she was striving for dance conservatory and was rejected for not being a feather.

^ Now that is something sad. It's a shame, really. When there's desire and effort, there should be opportunity. When people are denied the opportunity to reach for their dreams you create a stagnant society with a bunch of depressed or overly-self-conscious individuals. Being denied going into the dance conservatory is really something that shouldn't be based solely on weight, though I can see why weight would be important.

And yes, us guys are definitely biased, though I think you mean something else by that. Kids can be really cruel as well; girls tend to be less open about it, so their worst fears are usually rumors about them or other socially related issues; boys also consider social aspects to be very important, but they aren't usually backstabbers, they are very open about it and can say some very hurtful things. I wouldn't go so far as saying traumatized. Models and anorectics have never kept me awake at night... I already mentioned before that I prefer skinnier to fat girls; that's mainly a subjective point of view of mine, and has never been the sole guidance for any of my actions.

I got the same problem with my sister who say she's fat when she obviously isn't.

Diet suck, well if you are eating a lot it can be a good idea but you have to not cut on your 3 meal a day, if you have to cut somewhere it would be the drink you drink in the day (and take win water instead) and to stop eating sweet (taking a fruits in the middle on the day will be way better than let's say, chocolate) that way a diet is considered usefull for the body. Add to that a little exercice everyday (even if it's only 15 minute long) and if you are indeed overweight you'll lose your fat.

I'll tell something frankly to some people: You won't see result after quite a while, why? Because to begin with you won't be able to see much in a mirror since you'll lose it on the long run. Secondly you have to not trust your weight since while you lose weight you gain muscle and muscle are 3 time heavier than fat if I'm not wrong.

I'm not obsessed with my weight, and yet, I can see why some people might be.
I get called fat sometimes, but i don't think I am - I mean, I'm a ladies' size 12 which is labelled in shops as a medium. I'm quite short, sure, but I'm not overweight, as proved several times when I've done my BMI. And yet, people still call me fat. I'm curvy.
I can see why some girls would obsess over this, because getting called fat isn't nice, especially when you know you're average size. I'm not really that bothered by it - I'd like to maybe lose a little and sharpen up my fitness, but there's no way I'll go on an all-out diet. But I'll say one thing: guys still like me. If I'm not a guy's type because they like small, skinny girls, then so be it. But I've met many guys that like girls with a decent bum and a big bust, so being curvy isn't bad. You'll never have a figure that every guy in the world likes, so you should just be happy with it. My best friend is a size 6; she's naturally skinny, she still eats enough, she's taller than me as well, and guys like her too.

I don't really care. if they think they are fat and wants to go a diet even if they weight under 100 pounds than it's their choice to do so.
Personally, I like girls who are fit and tall. my ideal girl would probably be around 5'7-5'10 and 125-130ish.
one of my cuz is 5'9 135, she got a black belt in karate and I think she looks fine as most of her weight is muslce but she think she is over weight and would skip dinner and such =/

Well, I'm 120 and 5'4. I could imagine myself losing a few pounds. The thing I love and hate at the same time about the way I gain weight is that mine doesn't go down to my hips, it goes to my belly. So it gives me a belly that I can't stand. But it makes it really easy to suck in, making me an easy size 3.

I admit that I can be one of those people that really want to lose weight, but too lazy to do it. I actually have an ellipitcal sitting a few feet away from me. xD I should probably get on that soon... eh.

I love the junk food too much, I think. I never had any control as a child, so I have a hard time realizing when it's time to stop. I've given up soda and chocolate (except for pocky) and all that stuff because I was starting to get worried when suddenly I gained three pounds.

I get too aggravated with my friend. She is seriously so thin it's almost like she's anorexic. Although I know she isn't. She drinks all of my parent's soda and eats all of the junk food in my house when she's here, because her parents don't let her have it. She's super athletic, so that's why she's really thin. But anyway, she used to always complain about how she was so fat and needed to lose weight. If I showed you a picture of her, you would bitch slap her yourself if you ever heard her say that. So she finally stopped saying it when I did just that. xD

I really don't have any problem if girls say that they want to lose weight. Almost every girl does. It's just when they say it too much is when it gets annoying.

My own dear mother used to tell me I was fat all the time, whilst simultaneously yelling at me if I didn't finish my dinner. I have some anxieties about my weight now as a result :\
I could probably stand to lose a few as I'm only about 5'5" and weigh around 128 lb. I put on a bit of fat when I started living with and cooking for my bee-eff, who is extremely underweight @__@ It's too hard to be cooking two separate dinners every day.
(Oh, if you're wondering, we have an agreement where I cook the dinner and he pays more of the rent because he's hopeless as cooking; I'm not a housewife though sometimes it feels like it XD)

My best friend was anorexic and bulimic for a good five years and nearly died of it; thus it's become something of a sensitive issue for me. It seems people who get to the stage of truly having an eating disorder are more concerned about being in control than they are about their actual weight.

Anyone else here on a diet?

I started back in June at 210 pounds (6'2") which left me at a BMI of 26.9. Right now I weight 184, which puts me at a BMI of 23.6.

1500 calorie/day diet is a pain in the ass >.<

True that. Many girls are obsessed with their weight. Everybody is concerned about their appearance in this day and age!
For example, the 'stick' in my previous class (every class has one) always said she was fat and was on a never ending diet tho her thighs didn't even touch while she was walking and you could see her ribs too. Meh, sick people...
Though I dislike people who can't see what they look like, wear too tight clothes and (like one of my friends likes to say) 'their meat is sticking out' while they still believe their BMI is normal. >_<

I'm rather on the skinny side myself, 159cm (5feet 3 or smth) and 47 kilos (ugh, about 103-104 lbs), and yes, you can see my ribs (the horror!) tho I still have a compactly muscular body since I train/exercise every day. I've never been on a diet (proud of it!) , I eat 4-5 times a day and I eat whatever I want - if I want pizza for dinner, I'll get pizza for dinner, if I feel like eating chocolate for afternoon breakfast, I'll eat one. I also eat sweets every fcuking day (diabetes, here I come...). I just can't gain weight with my current lifestyle.

And everything depends on the girl - some look good with a curvy figure while others are... well, born to be slender. My point is that trying to look like a model while you're genetically curvy and starve yourself to death is plain stupid.
I think that if somebody wants to lose a little bit of weight because they want to be more healthy (note I said healthy, not skinny/model like), they shouldn't put themselves starving on a diet but work out every day and start eating more healthy food instead.

All in all, people should be happy with what they've got and try to get the best out of it instead of complaining and being depressed all the time. ^^

to start the post, im female btw

the funny thing is... the girls who are most sensitive about their weights are the skinny ones, which is really funny.

but there are also "skinny fat" people. yes, its an oxymoron. but some girls just have naturally small frame and bone strcutre.... but are fat. they have fat on them. i have a friend who is 5 4 and 105 pounds and size double zero. but shes got fat in all the same places that fat peopel have thme. just... in much smaller porpotions. double zeros can have muffin tops too. just not as big.

imo, id rather be a bit larger and toned. its all a matter of perspective, really

im 5 6.5 and weigh 128. id call myself quite fit, but not muscular. except when i go back to hong kong (im chinese)... im HUGE and obese. i dont fit in the one size fit all clothing due to my height and width. people call me large and fat. but you know what? i can probably snap those skinny girls in half.

diets are lame. cutting down 2 chocolate bars shouldnt be part of a diet plan because you shouldnt be eating those in the first place. just try to be healthier. even if you are living away from home, try a granola bar instead. at least it got fibre.

if i were a guy... i woudlnt want a super obese girl, but merely one who is healthy, not weak, and can present one's body with confidence.

normally girls think guys owuld like them if they were skinner (which I am not sure why)
as a guy i can say I hate girls who are just bones
but i do love women who are toned
and im scared of women who are ripped and can bench press me with no prob

women who are a bit chubby is ok but excessive is bad because they wouldn't be able to keep up with my lifestyle prefrences (jogging, sports, etc..) so thats a big no for me

Are you serious? A rule? And 120 pounds? That's one of the most idiotic things I've ever read on this site, and that's saying something. Nika-senpai makes a point; height adds weight, so even thin people often weigh more than that. And even if they're not thin, saying things like "girls should not" etc, especially regarding such shallow premises, is sickening.

Whenever you have to ask your female friends "Do I look fat?" and they will put on their best lying face and say "No, of course not!" Or something along those lines.

In all seriousness though, I would say it's better to be thinner rather than not. As long as you're not skeletal.

For me the most important thing to consider when it comes to body mass is that you should 1st be comfortable within yourself and 2nd to be healthy.

I think people shouldn't obsess with things that are going to change throughout life unless your body burns fat differently so that you always remain the same weight, some arent so fortunate.

There's alot more important things to worry besides your size.

Are you serious? A rule? And 120 pounds? That's one of the most idiotic things I've ever read on this site, and that's saying something. Nika-senpai makes a point; height adds weight, so even thin people often weigh more than that. And even if they're not thin, saying things like "girls should not" etc, especially regarding such shallow premises, is sickening.





Completely agree. This is one of the silliest things I've ever read on MAL. This guy must have been lied to by many girls regarding their weight. 120 is what everyone says they are. Every girl I know claims to be 120 or 125. It's such lies. I have a friend who is both wider and taller than me who claims to be 125. I'm 132 and about 3 sizes smaller than her. I'm calling shenanigans on these silly hang-ups about a number. As long as you can run a few laps without passing out from exhaustion and you don't have three chins, we're cool.

Lying about age and weight, I don't get it. Silly.

I think guys are funny about weight. I was always insecure about being overweight (less so now that I've lost ~30 pounds), but my cousin was always a twig, and couldn't gain wait even if he wanted to (was too thin as a child and made to eat whole milk to bulk up, but even then it didn't do much), and was insecure about that.

Grass is greener etc, but still, it's better to be skinny than overweight.

Hmmm, interesting thread, intersting answers...
Every guy has his type of girl (skinny, plump etc), therefore a girl may look like "skinny" and "plump" at the same time viewed by different guy's perspective. So no real answer to this question imho. As for me, I don't like "plump" girls (no offense, just they're not my type), but I don't like anorexy girls either. The first thing I look is the face, then the body. If the face isn't get my attention then no body can compensate that, although I like medium/big bust, but that's me.

I'm also the same in that if I don't like their face, then I couldn't care less what their body looks like, it can never make up for it. But if they have a pretty face, then the next thing I pay attention to would be their body, hah.

personally I think i'm most attracted to girls by thier waist area.... a nice tight butt, and slim thighs.... it depresses me to see ppl with large mid sections and thighs, this is probably just me being wierd though ^_^

Not necessarily "ugly". Usually it means the girl doesn't fit for my taste. Thats all.

people sometimes think i'm heavier, sometimes lighter than i look... (usually by a difference of 5kg!) it's kinda odd.

I don't get why people don't wanna say their weight.
generally they are being asked in person and people already see what they look like so a number isn't gonna change a thing.

The fat chicks always think their thin and shove themselves in clothes that don't fit

then the thin chicks think their fat asses.

i personally think the whole "I'm Fat" thing is an act so they can be told they aren't.

I don't really care that much about weight at all, I mean unless the girl is like extremely large. I do prefer skinny girls though, but that may be because I am fairly thin myself and don't really want to be with a girl that weighs more than I do. But anyways please girls, don't say things like "I am so fat" all the time because I and many other guys I know find that more unattractive than being fat, let alone it is incredibly mean to those girls that are fatter than you are.
