    What do you prefer?

    SKINNY or CURVY?

    What body shape do you have / want? :-)

    i prefer FIT!

    This! I think you can still be curvy when you're fit and 'skinny'. Curvy is a shape.

    I have an hourglass figure. I had it when I was nearly 60lbs heavier, I have it now, and I will have it when I lose the last 13lbs I want to lose!

    Uh... aren't most women "curvy"? It's part of what makes a woman a woman... no?

    It's not about being "touchy" it's about the fact that after nearly 2 years of seeing this topic in the forums on here I have never seen this amount to anything respectful. Everyone has their own specific ideal, but inevitably it will become a shouting match of insults and instead being a nice calm banter about ideals it becomes a lot of hurt feelings and nasty words.

    Exactly. You can change your weight, muscle tone, etc., but body type is genetic. I'll never be curvy and I'm fine with that, but I have lean muscle tone; just because I'm thin it doesn't mean I'm bony or unhealthy.

    See, this comment is going to blow up in your face. Not all women are curvy, and you've just insinuated women without natural curves aren't women. Im sure you didn't mean it that way, but it won't end well.

    I've not seen this topic before so that's why I posted it as I'm relatively new and would like to see peoples views, now I know not to post anything like this again.
    If they don't like it, just don't read it, everyone has opinions and how they wish to speak them is their choice. I only asked a question.

    Just appreciate what you have got cos, trust me, when you get to your 40s you will look back and think, I want the figure back I had in my 20s and didn't appreciate it at the time. Or is that just me :sad: :laugh:

    Unfortunately, when I lose weight, the first place I lose it is in my boobs. I'm 136 lbs right now at 5'7", and I have curvy hips with little weight on them, just their shape, but no boobs. I am a small b cup.. Kinda bites. If I had boobs I wouldn't have to lose as much weight to look good, but no boobs means you look thicker in the middle... *sigh*

    All I care about is how I refine it, not how you define it.

    you did not only ask a question...you also said:

    "caseyg9888: A few women do that yes I agree but a lot of women are curvy yet are not fat.
    By curvy, I mean - hips, boobs and a bum, not just a straight up and down look - no boobs, no bum and no shape in their legs. x

    Frankii_x: I wanna be curvy. Not stick thin. I want boobs, bum and a flat tum tum with hips.... God help me pleaseeeeeeeee "

    From a male point of view, I definitely prefer curvy, and I don't know many, if any, men that prefer skinny over nice curves. I think Marylin Monroe, dress size 12 to 16 (depending on timeline) had the ultimate body!

    If you want a different body type, you should find new parents.

    So if I can talk some ideal body type people into adopting me, I can finally have the body I want?

    I don't know how there is an option. Except when I was at my heaviest, I have a 12-14 inch difference between my hips and my waist. No amount of diet and exercise is going to give me a small butt.
    Are you instead trying to ask if there are women who are going to choose to stay on the top side of their weight in order to appear "curvier" vs those who want to be as lean as possible?

    I'll assume that is the case and answer that way... Before I really though weight loss was possible for me, I would of answered with "curvey" and what not. Now that I'm acutally taking charge of my life and health... I don't know that I care that much. I have a goal weight, and will *kitten* my heath when I get close to it (and I do have a long way to go yet).

    She was much smaller than that by today's clothing size standards.
