a question

I had a question. I joined MFP last summer and lost 35 lbs. After the holidays I gained some back, so I came back to do it again,, But there is something different that before. I have been really surprised about a large amount of women on here that weigh very litte and they are here to loss weight. They aim for 105 to 120. Noe that is acceptable for some for an equal number of people too low. I don't understand or get it. These women have posted picks of themself and I can't see or tell where they would need to lose a lbs. I know that weight is personal and who am I to tell another human being about what to do but I just don't get it. But there really are ALOT more of these posters on here.

    I kinda agree, I see a lot of that. But I guess if they are not happy with their body and want to lose, then go for it. I think I lost all my weight in my boobs and hands, so maybe they will lose it in their toes, lol.

    105-120 is not really problematically low. And if they're heavier than that to begin with, then I wouldn't say that they necessarily "weigh very little." It's great that you think they look good in their photos, but that doesn't actually give you a whole lot of information.
