re: What size is "fat"??

<blockquote><b>Quoting ~~My Pet Wussy~~:</b>" None of those women are fat. They are also all probably well over 6 feet tall. A 5 foot girl in a size 12 is way way different than a 6 foot girl in the same size."</blockquote>

THIS ! Height is a major factor, I'm 5'7 and wearing a size
11 ... My sister is 5'0 and a size 12, major difference, all those ladies look great to me!

I think fat is when you get into the 20's Im a 22 and I hate it... Oh what I wouldn't give to be a 16 again...and I thought I was fat then...lol

Quoting Legendary Bonnie Beaver:" well, if the 10 is fat, then i'm fat."

 

None of them look fat. I think fat is different on everyone. I think i am fat, i am a size 16 at 5'2. I think its on how you feel and what you look like. I am 190lbs yet someone else at 190lbs could look bigger or smaller depending on how they carry weight.

Those women are beautiful and I would kill to look like the size 12 girl. I think women critique other women so harshly that some women believe that size 8 is fat. We shouldnt go by the number in pants or the number on a scale. You should go by how you feel and look in your own skin.

I am 5'9 so when I am in a size 10 or 12 I look pretty thin or like the woman above. It all varies on your height!

That's because society puts to much pressure on women to be stick skinny look how the go on and on about losing baby weight and this persons to fat and they created stupid crap like photo shop so girls and some guys use it to hid any imperfection or shed some of their weight cause they think they are too fat why does everyone have to be a zero

Quoting Up In Smoke Signals:" <blockquote><b>Quoting packersgirl + 3:</b>" This is stemming from a FB post of a guy ... [snip!] ... I want to know how the hell the size 8 girl is an 8 when she looks smaller than I am. I look pudgy in a dang 5."

Could it be your perception of yourself?

OT but you have a beautiful family!!

Quoting Just Ames:" I personally think the size 12 girl is more womanly and appealing. I can't even say what size makes ... [snip!] ... actually do. I feel "fat" is when you have bulges but again, that could be from poor choice of wardrobe and/or size of clothes."

I am the same way.

I actually love to do the guess your weight thing at the fair cause I always win a prize, lol

Quoting *MommyLove*:" OT but you have a beautiful family!!"

Thank you!!

Me too!

They all look great. The girl furthest to my right is not fat at all. She looks like the average size of a woman to me. I actually prefer a thicker, more curvy body type.

It really makes me wonder if my self perception is screwed up.
Prior to having kids I wore a 00, I'm 5"8
I was skinny but not like emaciated looking.
Looking at these women who are more than likely taller than I am, I can't figure out how for instance, the size 8 chick wears an 8. She doesn't have that much weight to lose if she even wanted too, kwim

Quoting ~~My Pet Wussy~~:" None of those women are fat. They are also all probably well over 6 feet tall. A 5 foot girl in a size 12 is way way different than a 6 foot girl in the same size."

This is way true.


But I was kinda wondering if they would have said a different size, like 4, 6, and 8 if the girls commenting would have said something different.

I am always amazed at how much importance girls put into the number on their tags
