    You look average right now - I'd probably think nothing of you unless you were doing something eccentric. *shrug*

    Hope you don't take offense to anything I say...

    You aren't fat first of all. You do, indeed, have a pretty normal thing going on and that's not bad. You have meat on your bones and I don't mean that in a chubby way, it's healthy muscular sort of meat like a girl who is physically active, maybe on a sports team. I remember in high school, the girls who played lacrosse and softball had bodies like yours with built legs and all. While you don't have a slender type build that one might associate with a model aka skinny, you have have a great figure. It's very well proportioned and shapely and your stomach is flat which is more than I can say for myself.

    People I know call me skinny and say I don't need to diet but even then I hate the way I am built. It's all about proportions. I feel like even if I was 115 I'd still have a saggy protruding lower tummy and I envy women who, even when they are a little heavy, they have nice figures! Just saying that you in a bikini compared to me in one at 125, you'd have me beat hands down.

    I don't mean you but you already have a very nicely shaped figure. It depends on what you are going for. You don't need to do a lot if you are looking to slim down more. And I agree with everyone else, you're quite pretty :) You're also brave, I'd be terrified to post pics of myself and ask for 100% honest feedback so you must realize down in there what most have said, that you look great.

    I would probably think about your brightly colored shoes, and that's about it (I like bright things).

    Ooooh, shiny! *wanders off*

    Definitely not chubby. And for the typical guy response if you were walking down the street you would cause a head turn reaction ha

    I wouldnt say you are chubby. You look like most the people around where I live. So I would just think you're a cute, average girl.

    I think you look good but you don't look athletic.

    There is nothing wrong with your weight, I'd just focus on weight training and eating well

    I really appreciate all the feed back !! Thanks so much ! I looked at all your pics, progress and just keep up the good work ! YOU ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL!

    I WANT TO CLARIFY...

    I dont have any self esteem issues, I am very confident. I am not fishing for compliments or trying to get attention...

    I posted this mostly because I REALLY look at myself in the mirror before I leave my apartment and I see girls wearing things that they should definably not be wearing! I always think to myself omg... how? why?

    And then my mind just wanders to think, damn! Am I not confident enough in my own skin, when I KNOW that I will look better in their tight tank top and short shorts... (even though that is not my style , but hopefully you catch my drift)

    As a result, I have decided to start wearing whatever I want and start wearing more form fitting clothing because i should feel comfortable and happy.. Even though I am not at my goal weight yet I want to be really satisfied when I get there and not just want more all the time.

    Anyway , that is just me and I am a people watcher. So I always wonder what people must think when they see me.

    She works out. :drinker: She cares about her nutrition on MFP. She has a cute body, because she gives the effort thats needed to achieve her goal. :happy: Is that right?

    And they also think she should wear that outfit in her closet, that she hasn't worn yet. Is that right? Be gutsy. Sounds like im giving myself the advise. Haaah. :smile:

    I'd say you look chubby, but I can see you look healthyly chubby and I like your muscles. I'd say I would try to slim down if myself look like this, but mean while I am totally attracted to this type of body. make sense?

    As you walked past me and I turned back for a second look, I'd likely say to myself: 'hmm, not bad, I'd have a crack at that.' :laugh:

    And you look like a ***** for posting responses like this.

    It can go both ways.

    I apologize to everyone else, I can't tolerate people that are rude and negative for no reason.

    what would you think? fat? chubby? thin? thick? she works out ? wtf?

    I just want to know what random people think of me !

    I know this is weird and random but thats me !

    I dont care what you say you can be nice or mean just be honest!

    Thanks!
    :)

    The people who are crucifying me in this thread are retarded:

    Read her OP she wanted an HONEST opinion.

    I gave her an honest opinion. Again, as i said she has a very pretty face, i never said she was ugly or hideous.

    I said she is a "bit chubby", **** I AM still a bit chubby in my opinion and could shed a few more pounds.

    Get a grip people, when I ask for honest opinions, i want honesty.

    To help you out, let me quote her OP statement.
    Who are you comparing her to in your mind? According to the "standard" she's normal. I honestly wouldn't think anything, if you look how you do in your default pic, just you're a pretty girl, that's it.

    I don't think when we walk around we don't think "that person is fat" if someone asked me "is she fat, or thin?" then it will bring it in to focus.

    I am comparing her to what I feel someone would ideally want to be in a fitness atmosphere. I don't exactly know why that blows your mind so much.

    OMG seriously!? LOl I dont see any "chubby" in this girl. I mean she is not skinny. BUT she is def not :"chubby" least not in my eyes ..

    I would say you look pretty average weight and you have a beautiful face! :)

    "BIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Chubby.

    Jesus Christ.

    People like this thread piss me off, because when someone wants honesty they want honest. If someone wanted to get compliments, they would go to the "fun" section, and post in the 500 million attention seeking threads.

    When I ask people to honestly rate how they feel about me, i expect honesty not smoke up my *kitten*.

    I may be putting myself in the line of fire, like the poor guy above, but I feel I can say this easier b/c A) I'm not as fit as he is B) i'm female and C) I'm actually physically in a very very similar place to OP. However, I'm not happy with my body I want it more firm. I wouldn't 'judge' you walking down the street because you don't stand out as incredibly fit, fat or anorexic. (Ie noticible things..) However, if you stopped me on the street and asked I'd say you're 'average' and if you wanted to be fit you'd be far closer to getting there than many many people :)

    From a fitness perspective I'd say you're well on the way so congratulations :)

    honestly, i would think that you could lose some weight... Because you don't need to lose too much. You have a very pretty face so you would look perfect if you lost some weight.

    I would think you were the average girl who doesn't necessarily work out, but is still hot, and not fat in the least.

    As a bloke my view is, very pretty face (profile pic).

    PBucket photos show proportional body (but foreshortening of images caused by slanting downwards gives appearance of "chubby" legs,but as a photographer, I know this is illusion not fact).

    Have better piccy's taken by a friend so you are taken from a distance.

    You are definitely a keeper.

    Not chubby, not skinny, not athletic...average in a good way! Sure, you could lose some vanity weight, but almost everyone could. You can probably get away with wearing most things, but keep in mind some skin-tight things almost no one looks good in and no one should wear unless they are a 5'10 115 pound model...what you are wearing in your pics, you look good in. Keep up the good work!
