    Yeah I'm pretty sure that unless you have some kind of genetic anomaly or whatever you have hip bones.

    But in all seriousness, why do you want your hip bones to stick out?

    Hip bones are not an indication of being thin and/or healthy. Too much hip bone showing usually looks "too" skinny.

    I am 5'9" and 140lbs - my hip bones show.

    Wait---nevermind. I just saw on your profile that you're a recovering anorexic. My question has been answered.

    I have them, we all do. When you say stick out, how much do you mean?

    If you want to do it the healthy way I would say get into weightlifting so you can lean out your abdomen/hips/thighs. And some of it is just your bodytype and bone structure.

    Why do you want them to stick out? Think about it..that would mean that you have a serious open wound that is bound for infection.

    Vanity is a *****.

    Whether your hip bones stick out is partially based on your hip structure, mine stick out even at a relatively high weight. Not that it's any of my business, but a better goal might be to be a weight that your doctor, or other healthcare provider considers healthy.

    I'm 5'5 and weigh 128-132 lbs with a small frame. Mine stick out, but they also stuck out when I weighed 142. My body fat right now is in the high end of the "normal" range, down from the borderline "over fat" range, so I definitely tend to be "skinny fat". This makes me think the hip bone thing has a lot to do with genetics.

    It's your frame that determines this, not your weight.

    When I was too skinny (5'10", 105lbs), my hip bones stuck out. When I was overweight (still 5'10", 195lbs), my hipbones still stuck out.

    I personally dislike it. It makes lying on your stomach very uncomfortable. And if you wear pants that sit just so on your hips, your skin in that area gets irritated.

    TL;DR - aim for a healthy weight.

    Body part goals seem to me like setting yourself up for failure - if you concentrate on eating a healthy amount and exercising in moderation, you'll end up looking great regardless of what your hip bones are doing.

    Weight lifting and lowering my body fat to below 20% has helped my hip area lean out.

    I'm 5'6" and weigh 124 lbs.
