    You don't lose your shape since that was genetically set at conception. You lose body fat. So in essence you're saying don't get too skinny.

    ^^^this. If you "lost your curves," they weren't "curves."

    Hell yeah - be whatever size you want. If you want to be a size 0 - be a zero! If you want to be a 22, be a 22! YAY!

    I mean, if your skeleton, muscles and organs allow and you still have your period.

    Oh! That's so true, what's a woman without curves
    Wow, that makes me feel great about my naturally non-curvy body. Thanks. :flowerforyou:

    I'd rather let go of my curves. But I doubt that will ever happen. :ohwell:

    I get this post!!!! What she means is those of us who are curvy not to get too wrapped up in weightloss and turn into a bag of bones, Although I know curvy is a body shape and you're either curvy or not, I'm pretty sure if I dropped down to like 100 lbs at 5'7, I wouldn't be curvy anymore, just sickly-looking.

    If you are truly a curvy person, you will stay curvy no matter what your weight is. If you are not a curvy person and only "appear curvy" when you're heavy, you will no longer be "curvy" when you loose weight.

    Both ways are okay. Really.

    This, exactly.

    Even if I super toned, I'm still going to be curvy because I have really wide hips. I can't change my skeleton.

    "Curvy" has to do with body SHAPE, not body fat. People tend to confuse the two.

    Boobs are part of being curvy, and they are partially made of fat. Most women lose some boob when losing weight, so technically you can lose some curve.

    Oh! That's so true, what's a woman without curves, they mustn't be too much but I mean a woman needs some definition. As I lose weight I sem to get shapelier with some hips I never knew I had, I love them and don't want to EVER lose 'em.

    Well, for starters, a woman without curves is still a woman.

    But thanks for that.

    Not really no.. I would not consider the fat in your breasts to be curves. If you're overweight you will have fat in your breasts, if you're not it would be mostly breast tissue and you can't lose breast tissue (without operation).

    I could weigh 100 pounds and still be curvy. My bones refuse to restructure themselves.

    I have curves... ohhhhh do I have curves... and they're far more pronounced now that I lost that last 15 pounds. I actually have somewhat of an hourglass figure (check the blue dress in the profile pic)...

    Losing fat helped me FIND my curves.

    mmmmm curves...

    having kids was the worst thing EVER for my boobs... they ballooned while nursing and deflated thereafter.
    NOTHING could have been worse for my boobs than having children.

    but good lord, am I ever thankful I lost THOSE curves, because my children are my life! :heart:

    Ladies as we're all on a weight loss journey. Keep your curves, do not let the media define what is sexy for you. I see a lot of celebrities who we're all ready slim & trim, getting smaller and losing their sexy curvy figures. I can see how excercising and eating right can be addictive (but let's not trade in one addiction for another). I hate taking my rest day, I feel like I missed a week. In my opinion as females we should have a little something to hold on too. Although I want to be fit, I still want to keep some of my thickness. All that was to say, Keep your Curves we do not have to be a size 0 to be Sexy. People sure are sensitive, I was stating my Opinion, I wasn't saying that if you are a size 0 you're not sexy or if you're are muscular you're not attractive. I think curves are sexy so I posted about them. You do what is right for you, that is the whole point of the post. Get over yourself, it's not about you.

    If I weighed 90 pounds, I'd have curves. I love my curves. I don't love my fat rolls.

    same here. Fat loss and weight gain helped define my curves.
