    Either i have worse body image issues than i thought, or everyone else in my height/weight range carries the weight better than i do...

    Disappointing for me, but amazing website none the less haha

    Me too!! I dont look as Thin as any of the women in my weight and height category :disappointed:

    SAME HERE! Kind of frustrating. All the girls who are the same height & weight as me in those pics look so much thinner than I do. Grr.

    Its interesting to see what other people look like who are the same weight and height. They look great! I don't see myself looking like that...puts things into perspective. You see yourself completely different than the way others see you.

    I just found this website which illustrates body fat percentages:

    Women: http://www.bodyfatpics.com/women/all/all
    Men: http://www.bodyfatpics.com

    Some of them are verified by DEXA, BodPod or calipers, but many are estimates.

    Frustrating for me as well...I am at my goal weight of 140 and 5'4, and I look nothing like the people in those pics do. Still have the flab rolls. Press on, I guess...
