How do you "see" how thin you are?

The best thing you can do is to stop comparing yourself to other people.

I know how you feel, I am small to medium sized frame but only 5"3'. here in the UK i wear sizes 6 and 8 which are generally the smallest the majority of shops stock.

I see a lot of women with really tiny frames and think that they are far smaller than me, There are a great amount of women who are significantly larger than me as well,

I find a lot of the long sleeved tops and shirts are not made to be comfortable on women with more muscular arms-if there are any i would love to know! I end up having to wear long sleeve tops/jumpers several sizes too big so i can have my upper arms comfortable in them.

As for seeing how thin/small i am, I occasionally hold up an item of clothing and wonder how i can fit in that, then get amazed when i do.

Honestly. you're doing great and for me, I would rather have the muscular arms and legs, if it means i can't fit in skinny jeans, i don't care- I rather be able to lift/push heavy weights than wear clothes i am not comfortable in.

I can't "see" what size I am at all. I'm currently a size 4 petite, but most of the time (when I actually think about it) I still think of myself as size 16.

I agree with learning not to compare yourself though. Even at the same weight as those lightly-boned Asian women in Toronto, you'd have a whole different body shape, and look a whole lot stronger, less willowy and, quite frankly, beautifully Amazonian.

Spend a few days in Oklahoma. lol

I madonna arms.

You was wrong for that.

Well you weren't, but you were.

Lol

I know it's hard, I have the same problem. Sometimes it is easier to see in a photo, you could try that

In a word, Dysmorphia, many people have this I do quite a bit I can't see my body how it is. So I choose to focus more on simply healthy and this helps more than any amount of weight loss, which by your numbers you don't need to do.

Skinner does not necessarily mean more beautiful, some people like a little more some people a little less, but everyone finds healthy beautiful.

If you focus on trying to increase speed or endurance or flexibility then you have goals other than your size and these goals are limitless so you will always have something to achieve. Eventually you train your brain to look at your body differently.

I think most of us have a distorted idea of how we look. When I look at myself directly (that is, I lower my head and look at my body) I think I look kind of big. In the mirror I see myself as maybe average and then I see myself in pictures with other people and I look tiny (which everyone says I am) and anybody else I might be with looks like they normally look to me so I've concluded that's how I probably look. When feeling insecure I look at a group picture. I know it sounds silly but I feel like it gives me a very idea of reality.
