Unsure if I'm done

MeowserKitty

I am at a weight that is healthy and I like it (115, I am 5'4.5) but my body is so... I dunno. Am I just shaped odd?

Ange_

what do you mean odd!?
You look wonderful!

Definitely go into maintenance mode, you look perfect!

I am not attracted to women, but you're body is beautiful! I agree with the other poster - go into maintenance mode and stay just the way you are. ;-)

If you were to ask me to be hypercritical, I would say that if you wanted to build anything it would appear that your back (particularly the lats) might be underdeveloped. That's hard to say from a front view tank top shot, AND it's a nitpicking sort of assessment, but it's all I've got. Otherwise, I can only say "I wouldn't kick you out of bed for eating cookies," which I believe is rather self-explanatory

Well I can tell you I'm certainly not seeing anything odd here! You look great, be proud of yourself!

You look good to me. Have you considered body dysmorphia ? It's something I think I have, I look at myself in the mirror and see a fat person with lumps and bumps everywhere. I try to see myself as others see me, but find it really hard.

It's definitely possible. I guess to me I look and I know I'm not big. But I think my hips and ribs are closer than most people. Could be wrong. Haha.

Thanks everyone!!

There's nothing wrong with your shape at all.
Your boobs are in proportion with your body and you can differentiate between that and your body.
Be proud, alot of women would want a body like yours - I''m straight, but can be honest.
Well done.
I could say posture, but that could be the way your standing.

I think you look great but I do understand how you feel. I am 5'5" and weigh 122 with a goal of 115. Will I be happy with that, I don't know. I still have plenty of fat around my mid section from having my 3 kids. I am losing most of the weight around my legs and chest area. I am hoping the waist is next.

I am looking to do some building, I'm just not really sure how. I would love to work on my back muscles haha.

You look wonderful! Perhaps your perceptions have not caught up with your weight loss. Maybe you should take some time to get used to your new weight before thinking about losing any more.

woou

Looks good to me. What about your body do you feel needs to be worked on more?

I just feel a bit... thick. I think it could be bones though.

I think we have really similar body types. I feel self-conscious about a very wide ribcage and a general "thick" body type. Even if I lose weight, I still feel "big" in that sense.

I would recommend strength-training! That's what gives the tight look I'm guessing you want (it's what I'm going for too) and it's the one thing, so far, that's made me feel ok about my "big" body, i.e. yes I'm bigger than the fragile waif-type, but it's all muscle. Lately I've been eating a bit more and lifting a bunch and having way more success with that than dieting ever gave me.

This is a great idea.

I really think you look great! I agree w/ the strength training comments.

It looks like you are slouching somewhat in the picture. Stand tall and proud of what you've accomplished.

I have really bad posture.

I would love your body.

But I know how you feel. Even if I was thin, my hips and ribs would still be quite thick. (There's little flab I can pull at on my hips.)

You have a really nice athletic figure. Flaunt it, I say!
Seriously - you just look like you're into lots of sport, and quite fit and slim! It's a great figure.

Thank you! I'm not even very sporty.
Everyone has been so kind:)
