So like I said my measurements are 36-28-38. I am 5'6". So I was just skimming through the web and someone with my measurements said they were 139 pounds!! I am 157. This doesn't make any sense. :noway: Is it because I have more fat or something? :ohwell:

Why do bad stuff happen to good people.....

    It's probably because they are liars.

    I have about the same measurements as you do. I weigh less, but I am built totally different. My friend who has about the same measurements as me and weighs more, looks skinnier than I do. You can not compare yourself to others. It will bring you down just focus on yourself :smile:

    they have more fat, you have more muscle probably....

    I'm about your height and I wish those were my measurements at that weight. Mine were closer to 36-29-41 when I was 157


    Now at 139 mine are 35-27-38

    People carry weight differently. I'm 36-27-36, 5'7, and at 138 lbs. right now. I've been 32-22-32 and 115, and 39-30-40 and 155, so it really does depend on the individual and how they carry it.
