Hello. My name is Lauren, and since I was little I have been told I've been told "honey you're not fat, you're just big boned". My mom, to this day, will swear by this.

I've had the life long issue with trying to control my weight, and now I am here. Over the past 7 years I have become active and I do exercise on a regular basis. I don't want to be skinny or even look like the girls in the magazines; I just want to be healthy. I want to be healthy enough to support my own body weight. That's my goal!

    I thought that about my daughter....and I can tell you she lost weight and looks thin, and not big boned.

    I think some people have a bigger frame....like broader shoulders. I really don't believe big bones...I'm sure mens are larger then ladies.
