    I think if I ever lost a ton of weight, I'd end up with boyish. I don't forsee myself getting that skinny though, so I'll probably hover between normal and chubby.

    Somewhere between athletic and muscular. Leaning more towards the muscular though.

    Based on those pics, I'm currently fat, but would like to be curvy :)

    Although a couple of the girls at work have told me that I look normal, and my best friend says I'm curvy...hmmmm

    Some of these labels are a little off to me, but I won't split hairs.

    I would call the "normal" girl thin, and the chubby girl "normal"


    Right now I'm at curvy, trying to get to athletic.

    This is what I was thinking! How in the world is that chubby???
    *THAT* is what you call "chubby"? Are you kidding me? That girl looks fine, except she's got a stomach. Sheesh, are we unrealistic or what?! :noway:

    That's what I thought too! Where's the hi-five smiley?

    As for me, I've always been curvy, so that's my goal curvy but with more curves than pictured there. Even when I weighed 95 lbs I had more curves than that. :ohwell:

    It comes down to perspective with some labels. I look exactly like that picture and I would definitely describe myself as chubby, which is "fine" for some, but not for me.

    When i started MFP my goal was to just be Normal/Curvy, but after seeing all the inspirational people on here, doing the 30DS and Ripped in 30 or just their own workouts, i think i'd like to be Athletic/muscular.

    Curvy. My breasts won't allow me to be normal by any means but I envy the girls who are normal. No problems with buying shirts that fit the stomach and boobs

    i would prefer athletic but as my body shape is hourglass and that is not changing anytime soon.

    Uh, I think "fat" looks pretty good. I think that's what I have in my mind as a goal. Sad to hear that's what "fat" is supposed to look like though. :/ And who came up with this anyways. That "normal" looks nearly the same as the "skinny" which really should be called MALNOURISHED. Anybody?

    Mine would be what this posting classifies as "fat".
    In my opinion, that woman is not fat - she is voluptuous, curvy, and bootylicious in the best possible way - plus, she's healthy looking. Definitely my goal.

    Athletic, but with a little more curvy in my hips, God gave them to me for a reason:)

    Somewhere closer to normal than curvy, but I'll go with either of them.

    I'm partial to either "normal" or "curvy". I'm definitely a dead-on for "fat" right now.

    why is "normal" a girl whose ribs are starting to show? and why does it jump straight to morbidly obese? stuff like this just makes me feel there is no hope.

    I have my moms hourglass frame so I'll always be a bit curvy, but I'd like to be kinda muscular as well... I don't particularly like "athletic" body types because they're too damn bony. Right now I'm a mix of curvy/muscular/athletic because I have a tiny waist, wide hips, ridiculously muscular thighs, and no boobs. With diet, exercise..... and a boob job I'll get there tho.
