wow, i really appreciate this post since i'm the same! most of the time i think i'm also very hard on myself, but the fact that in clothes - no one could tell i got any fat on my body & whenever i say i dont want to be in a bikini or whatever, i just get people saying "but you got no fat on your body to be ashamed off!". well, they don't know do they, right? & then you feel like you're fooling them haha! nah, but not many people understand that it's actually not fun to be skinny chubby either, & it's REALLY hard to get rid of in my case :S though i'm working on it so so hard now, trying to at the same time not be too hard on myself & love my bod anyway!0

I'm 5'5 and weigh 124.8lb currently. I started at 143lb and even then I wasn't technically over weight in terms of BMI.
I want to lose another 10lb, but even then I won't technically be near underweight in BMI terms.
Visually it depends on where you store fat. I'm pear shaped, so it's my thighs.0
