I need opinions on my ideal size (Judge Away!!)

nwgereen

Okay sorry to bug anybody but i have been scouring the web to try to find info on my ideal measurements. Im 5'9 at 165 right now starting my new healthy lifestyle ( nothing crazy just eating healthier and less time in front of the good ole television). I need your honest brutal opinion. Ive been trying to relate other people blogs to my body type but frankly i need help that directly about my own body. Im a size 8 right now and aiming for a comfortable six (wrangler standards). my measurements are currently 36-29-41 and im trying to downsize this big booty of mine :-) i like my curves but i would like to see a little less of them lol
So judge away! i can take it! I just need somebodys opinion who sees my body shot besides me :-)

Please reference my profile pic :-)

You look good to me!!!

nursenelson

personally I would die to have your shape etc
Keep it!
if you just want to get more fit then by all means but honestly you look fantastic the way you are
and keep the booty!

nwgereen

thank you! that means a lot! honestly i feel like with me being as tall as i am i should be less curvy.

you have a similar shape to me but im 5'6 and 130. Try aiming for muscle definition and fitness and youll be surprised at where you'll strengthen and tone. Then its not so much about getting smaller but being healthier. Good luck finding the new you although the old one is looking good too!

I'm 5'8" and just hit 143 lbs, and my measurements are almost exactly the same as yours: 37-29-40!! Sometimes that big booty doesn't go away, no matter how much weight you lose! You can tone it, though! Good luck!

You look good to me. You certainly aren't overweight.

At the end of the day everyone has a different body shape which they can't really do a lot about but keep it healthy. You seem to be doing that already so just keep doing what you are doing and embrace your body type!

Ideal weight: what you are now. Ideal body fat percentage: 20-24%.
Lift heavy

U look strong and in shape. A lil more cardio each day will take off a layer of body fat and ur muscle tone will show up better. That is just my opinion of how u may improve, but know that u already look beautiful and healthy? Can u now judge my pic honestly?

Ignore the scale please!

Ok I'm about to judge and this is me being brutally honest, from what I can see anyway. Your ideal size in my opinion is your current size, you look great and healthy.

We are literally the same person (size wise that is). I'm 5'9" and at my lowest I was 140 (still curvy)-- I think I got back up to 150 but haven't weighed myself in a while. My measurements from my smallest size were 34-25-39 I think-- the *kitten* doesn't go away Right now I'm working to get back to my 140-- I was way more comfortable in my body and about a size 4!

Let me know if this helps!

You can lose another 20-25 lbs. Do total bodyworkouts 4-5 times weekly, and additional workouts 3 time a week that would concentrate on glutes/inner thighs. Try fitnessblender.com, blogilates.com find other videos in the Befit channel on youtube (try the butt bible is also on youtube) Clean your eating, but eat well, not 1200 level so you can keep energy.

Where are you getting 20-25 from?

I am reminded of what the philosopher sir mix a lot said ...'you can do sit-ups and pushups, but please don't lose that but!" Ha! Seriously, nothing wrong with curves. IMO you would benefit from a program of compound lifts with some cardio thrown in, but I think that everyone would benefit from that..

She is on the highest range of the normal BMI. If she loses 20 lbs she is going to be exactly in the middle of the normal range, and yes she can definitely lose in the thighs and mid section area, and tone all over.

We're pretty much the same size, only I'm shorter- 5'6. My boobs are a little bigger and hips an inch smaller!

I think you look great, and people probably say that about me too. I could do with losing another 10lbs or so. If you're anything like me, you should focus on more strength training, which I know is what I need to do, but somehow keep going back to my cardio based classes!
