    Great job ladies! These are the kind of pictures you'd be expecting with the kind of statement from the other thread, but all they had were obese women pics, not average, that felt like it was basically propaganda for promoting obesity from what I saw too. But these are all great, MFP version is real pretty average size ladies! :)

    Not a bikini shot I'm afraid. I might live by the sea, but this is England! Size 12 (US 8), 5'6. Currently pregnant, so not looking quite so slim now lol.

    This is a great thread. You're all amazing. Be good if the fashion mags etc could catch on.Don't have any recent photos but am 5.5 and a half and 131 pounds. Size 10 (us 6) .I've taken off about 10 kg over the last few years but seem to have worse body image now than when I was heavier. Thanks everyone this really helps

    I would, but I am fat. Kinda defeats the purpose.


    Average here I come!

    GREAT thread, gorgeous ladies!

    I'm currently a size above where I want to be which is good old size 12(UK) (I think size 8 US?). Another 6-7 kg (14ish pounds) should do it I think. I was an hourglass shaped size 12 when I settled into my adult body in my early 20s and I'm quite comfortable with how I look there. I have no ambition to be superfit or superskinny... just the top end of a healthy BMI would be great!

    Great idea for a thread, OP. Everybody looks so damned good. Hooray for the average-sized! :drinker:

    <--- I'm a size 6/8 myself. I think I'm average, but I get called skinny a lot, though, so not sure if I qualify?

    I think that's more a matter of people's idea of skinny changing than anything else. I've been called skinny or tiny but really I'm neither.
