what weight/size would you wish to be?

If you could click your fingers and there would be no other health implications, be honest, none of that size doesn't matter etc


I find that quite a lot of girls claim they love their curves, yet are starving themselves to get thinner, also quite a few of my friends have admitted that they envy the anorexic type supermodels and even famine victims and would prefer to look like that, which i find quite shocking.

Well, I'm currently 81 KG. I'd like to go down to 72-75KG. 72 would be ideal. I'm starting a new diet today, so I hope it's going to work! :smile:

I'm not too bothered about my weight because I don't think it matters how heavy you are, just your dress size. If I had to choose I'd be a size 8, maybe even a 6...I'm 5'7 and I do have a small frame, although I guess 6/8 is still pretty slim. I just like the idea of being able to wear what ever I want without ever worrying about looking fat, and being able to eat and drink whatever I want without feeling guilty!

The worst thing is that many of these girl get used to it then. Restraining your body from a healthy diet is very bad!!

A modest quotient of muscular tone and/or bulk wouldn't go amiss, but I am otherwise quite content with my lot.

10 stones (am 10 stones 6/7lbs atm) with better boobs and a toned bottom. :p: :redface:
I'd love to be around 9 1/2 stone and perhaps a size 8?

I'd like to keep my boobs, though (like that's ever going to happen :rolleyes:)
I don't want to be REALLY skinny..I just want to go back to how I was about a year ago - I've put on about a stone in that time.

I used to be: 7.5 stone, and a size 6/8. That's what I'd like to go back to, but I find it physically impossible to lose the weight.

But the advantages of putting weight on are that my boobs are bigger now, so I'm not too sure I'd want to part with them :wink: I'd gladly get rid of the huge ass I've seemed to accumulate though!
I'm 5'5 and just under 10 stone atm. I'm the process of losing weight after I put a load on while on the pill. I plan to get back to at least 9 and a half stone.

I'd like to go back to how I was about a year ago, bout 8 stone. But I think my boyfriend would kill me! But that would put me firmly back in size 8 category as opposed to this stupid size 9 I seem to be at the moment, meaning NOTHING fits me!
I'm just under 5'7" and only 7st which I don't like. I've always been thin, it runs in the family but I'm trying to put some weight on right now so my target weight is about 8st.
I dont mind being size 12 because its ideal for my height and i know that ill keep my curves even if i lost weight, but i just want to be a really slim and healthy size 12.
I'm perfectly happy with how I am, I'm 5'7" and size 8 and I wouldn't want to change that for all the tea in China.

Currently 5'10" and a size 12. I'd love to be a size 10, and lose about a stone. Then I'd be happy!
I'm pretty happy being a size 8. It seems to be the size my body wants to be naturally because its very hard for me to lose/put on weight.

I'm 5ft 10/11 and 9stone

I would rather be the same hight but 11-12 stone
I'd like to be a size 8. I'm too thin righht now, but when I try and gain weight I only seem to gain it on my face and end up looking baby-faced lol :biggrin: Still have the "anorexic bits" round my waist....so frustrating!?
