my arms are too thin

strange problem but my wrist is only 1 an 3/4 inches in width lol and im embarrased about my arms being too thin. Im only small anyway - 5ft and arn't exactly underweight cause my legs are average ive seen people my age have thinner legs its just the way i am but i hate being really small for 19! Im even self conscious about wearing a T shirt everyone thinks im about 13 years old! Is anyone else like this?

I have small wrists like you, although i'm not that self conscious about them. I'm only 5"2, so i'm little too, i wouldn't be self conscious, people love us petite people! :biggrin:

I wouldn't let it bother you...although i'm only 5"2 (i'm probably 5"1, i just prefer saying that im 5"1!!! :p:

) i have a big personality, so people don't usually comment on my height. I love being little anyway, if you were really tall you wouldn't be able to wear heels without towering over your boyfriend, and you may even be taller than your boyfriend without heels! :eek:

Hit the weights !!

You would look stupid (in my opinion). I don't think girls suit muscles, especially petite ones!

lol, no way its disgusting. I hate wearing tops that show all my arms and shoulders, cos theyre so skinny and boney, Im a tall girl with long skinny arms, I look like a zombie and I'm not going to even start about my stick legs, I cant wear skirts cos I have skinny long legs, ewww a fat person would not be envious at all, and then to top it all I'm not even a size 10 :frown:

I wish I could go back to being a size 10.

haha I just remembered when I bought a watch a couple of years ago, the guy had to take off the bars so it would fit my wrist, but at the end of it, I couldnt buy it,cos he took all of them off and it still was loose on me.

I have quite skinny arms, and I'm 5'2". I don't think it matters, cos it kinda goes with the whole petite thing.

My big personality only seems to aid people in taking the mick out of me about my height. I guess it's probably cos most of my friends are guys, so at least half a foot to a foot taller than me.

Mine are probably thinner; but then, I'm hedging that fine line between 'zombie' and 'corpse'.

i wish i had your problem - mine are too fat! just do some gentle excercise with weights, that should do the trick.
