honest feedback---> is there a such thing as too thin?

there is definitely such a thing as too thin. and since you're asking for honest feedback, i say you're pushing it.

be healthy. be safe. and take care of yourself

There is definitely a thing as "TOO thin".

In these pictures, it is hard to tell if I think you are at the point of "TOO".

However, you do look very skinny! You asked for honest opinion -- You do not look like you have anything to spare. Go on "maintenance" mode at the very least. Do not lose any more weight.

I think there is. But its not a number. Its able the health of your body - its about the way you fit into your skin. Someone at 110 could still stand to lose weight where others could be extremely underweight.


I know aa lot of people lose perception when losing weight - thinking they are still fat or could lose a few pounds more even though they are not - even though they are very thin indeed. At this point is where it becomes a mental perception issue - which could need councelling.

I wish you the best!!!!

have you looked at your BMI? also your bone structure...

This is a such thing as too thin, but to define that would be different for each person. The key is happiness but making wise choices to maintain a good health.

can't see the pictures - if your family is concerned, maybe go get a physical and see what a doctor says. If the doctor gives you a clean bill of health and says you are at a healthy weight then show your family whatever he gives you. If the doctor says you are too thin, you need to listen to that too

nvm :S

I agree with the others on this. I think you are pushing the "too thin" limit. Definitely don't lose any more weight! Maybe work on maintaining or building some muscle? I'm not a professional, this is just my opinion. Good luck to you!

I am an honest person, first of all, it is hard to tell with the jacket on, but your collar bone looks a little sticky outy. That sounds funny, but you look fine, but don't lose anymore. There is such a thing as too thin, it causes bruises while being intimate - you know? We all need a little meat, look at it this way, if you look like a super model, you are too thin.

Personally, I think it's borderline. The second photo concerned me a little bit; being able to see protruding collarbones and neck structure. Being 5'4" myself, I know that if I drop below 125 I start to look a little unhealthy, but I have a broader bone structure than you. This being an OPINION question, my OPINION would be to not drop any MORE. I don't necessarily think it's unhealthy, that's up to you (and your physician). If you have an issue with the weight itself, maybe you could put on some lean muscle, just to bring the scale up a bit healthily. How do you FEEL? Are you eating the requisite calories? Do you have enough energy? I'm assuming you're not losing hair or anything....

So what do YOU think?

Yeah, there is such a thing as too thin; as an example look at a picture of someone who suffers from an eating disorder. You don't look bad, and your weight is at the very lower end of a healthy BMI for your height. So, just as a precaution, don't go below a BMI of 18.5 (underweight range), as that brings a huge load of health problems that are just as bad as those concerned with being in the overweight range. For instance, women who are underweight (and in fact, also those who are at the lower end of their "healthy" BMI range, below a BMI of 19.6) have an increased chance of delivering a baby prematurely (which is very bad, so if you ever start thinking about getting pregnant, I would suggest trying to gain some weight first). However, if you make sure to eat healthy, have a net of more than 1200 calories per day, and are getting all your necessary nutrients, you are fine

It's tough to base on two photos, especially the second photo where you are making a weird face and causing your clavicle to look overly visible. It's really difficult to tell if you are too thin because we can not see the tell tale signs of being too thin, arms, stomach and legs.

However, if you are only going to give me two photos to go off of, I think you look fine, due to you having full cheeks. Your eyes kind of worry me because they look a little sunken in, which can be caused by lack of sleep or poor nutrition. But like I said you are kinda at a weird angle / making a weird face in that picture so that could be the cause. Again, it is difficult to make a judgment call with just two photos.

It says on your page, you want to lose 20 pounds...??..I wouldn't try to lose any weight. Why would want to go under 100 pounds? maybe I missed something...Just be healthy and enjoy life. Life is no fun, if you are worried tooo much about weight.

Maybe think about hitting some more weights, build some tone. You will still been lean, but healthier looking with a stronger frame. Also don't worry about weight it's just a number, it should be about how you feel.

by the numbers with a medium build I would say 5' and 100 lbs then add 5 lbs for every inch over so if you're 5'4 - you should weigh about 120 so really you're not that underweight (again, assuming you have a medium frame) That's about the height of my daughter but you are definitely skinnier than she is. She weighs 129 so she's more towards the top of her weight range than in the middle but she is not fat by any means.

Looking at those pictures alone, I have to admit, especially the 2nd one, you do seem to be on the anorexic side (I see collarbones way more than usual) but that could be from the angle - it doesn't seem as noticeable in the first picture but you have a sweater on that kind of hides them more.

You don't look as if you feel very well in the second one compared to the first but you are a pretty girl.

Here are some things to consider -
do you feel healthy or are you tired, irritable, notice any TOM changes
is your diet nutritionally sound
are you eating enough? do you feel hungry and ignore it?
Do you have body strength (your arms seem thin to me)

My son's girlfriend is taller than I am (I'm 6'1 - she's got to be at least 6'3") and she's a literal stringbean but she eats poorly. She does eat, don't get me wrong she's not starving herself, she just doesn't eat regular balanced meals (they're kids, they like to eat fast food). She is strong though and doesn't appear sickly so I'm guessing she just has a killer metabolism or possibly a thyroid problem (on the hyperactive side)

Maybe consider building some lean muscle to add a little weight to your arms and shoulders?
