Anon or detele.

Firstly: This isn't an attention seeking thread.

I’ve had issues with my weight in the past, I use to restrict the amount of calories I consumed because not only did I feel fat, but I thought by some silly logic, becoming skinny would transform me and make me more appealing (Like I said, silly borderline stupid logic). Anyway, I thought I was past that, but I find myself binge eating and then skipping meals.

My family have always made comments about my weight, jokingly calling me anorexic (I’m not) and telling me that I’ll blow away in the wind I don’t think I’m that skinny, I think im fine, I’m happy with the way I am right now, but comments from friends and family are playing back in my head. I want to loose some weight and tone up a bit, but after hearing some of the comments from people i'm begining to think maybe i need to put on weight instead of loosing any. What do you think? I don't trust my own judgement right now, i have days when i feel like a whale and days when i think 'Ughh! thats too bony'.

Also i'm wondering, are you suppose to see your ribs? I can faintly see my ribs, is that normal? If i run my finger down my ribs, i can easily count how many bones there are without putting pressure on my skin.

Ok, enough rambling. Is this skinny/chubby/skinny-fat etc.

I weigh half of what most of my mates weigh and they all call me anorexic. But I eat loads of food, but I do do a lot of exercise regularly; I'm probably one of the fittest. So it's completely normal, I can count my ribs too

The link doesn't work, but no I don't think you should be able to obviously see your ribs when you're stood straight (when you lean back, maybe).

Oh.... How do i upload pics on to this site?

That's odd. I weigh a couple of pounds less, am 5 ft 2 and you can't see any of my ribs. That said, I've never restricted my diet. Whereas you have, and you're thinking about losing even more weight, without a picture it can be assumed that maybe you should let yourself eat more to become your natural healthy weight.

You need to use some other image hosting site, I don't think Anonymous posts work with images. Try http://tinypic.com/

ok, never mind, this doesn't seem to work.

I'll just have to trust my own judgement on this one.

I think your body looks fine, its your massive rectangular vagina id be worried about!

Why is there a white box there?

[cesca42]

I can't see the image but regardless, I think whether or not you can see your ribs depends on your body type. I'm 5ft7 and about 135lbs, so I wouldn't call myself skinny exactly, but I can see my ribs and hipbones and collar bone and I have really bony shoulders, so I am a pretty bony person in general and I guess you're the same.

Idk. White box covering that area just seemed appropriate.

[biffyclyro27]

Personally, I'd say you are a little on the skinny side. I think you would look a lot better if you put a little bit of weight on.

Your BMI also comes in at 18.6, which is normal, but only just.

You certainly don't look like a whale though, that's for sure...

[Kieran293]

The pictures just add to my point, your weight isn't too skinny. I look skinnier tbh and I don't have any problems :')
