Because some women want to look elegant and put together. I don't want to look like I'm on my way to the gym, or just rolled out of bed. Leggings look cheap no matter how you style them. They're basically just really thick tights. A nice pair of dark wash denim is always classic and stylish.

Anyone?

I was just the opposite. It WAS the extra weight that was making me unhappy. Once I lost the weight, I had confidence, great health, and am still beaming with pride that I accomplished so much.

Same here!! I'm 5'11" and my husband is 5'6". He has a tight, lanky "rock star" body, which I love. I'm so glad I didn't let a goofy height rule dictate my dating life. My mom calls us Sonny and Cher, haha.

Awesome, we are the same height too! You look fab! What size are you now? I went from 275 to 200 and my goal is 150-170. CONGRATS!

andreaisme, ugh, that reminds me of something that happened to me a few years ago, that I totally forgot about until now.. I was at a mall kiosk getting a cover for my phone and a guy started chatting with me. Out of the blue he said, "You must play softball, right?" And I said, "No, why?" And he replied, "Well, you know…

BUT HER DRESS FITS!!!!!! :laugh:

Uggh! How is it that we are the same height and I weigh 50lbs LESS that you, and we wear the same size? SO FRUSTRATING :grumble:

Spanx and Diurex Water Pills.

No problem! Your hard work and dedication deserve to be seen :)

Here you go! And WOW!!!! You look amazing!!!

I think it's too big :/

Same here! I hate it. I would LOVE to be a 14 at 203lbs. I had to get down to 184lbs to be a size 14 :( My body type must be really crappy..

If someone my height should not be wearing heels, then someone with your IQ should not be speaking.

THIS! And also: "Women aren't supposed to be that tall, it's not natural. Women are supposed to be petite and feminine, not big and tall" Makes me really pissed. Even worse to be tall AND fat. I feel like Shrek :(

5'11", 234lbs, size 18/20 depending on the brand. I was a size 14 at 184lbs. Seems like I'll have to be 130lbs just to get into a size 8 :(

YES! I hate that. My short friends usually go down a full size with every 10lbs they lose. I lost 50lbs a few years ago and only went down 3 sizes. REALLY disappointing. (from a size 18 to a size 14). It's really crappy to lose that much weight and STILL be fat. Sadly, I gained it all back, but am back on track now. Ugh.…

He deactivated his account - what happened??

This makes me want to go get some cheese and weigh it. Then eat it. It really *is* frustrating though..

Yes, yes, yes! I'm 5"11", and when I was younger and at a lower weight, I felt like a supermodel when I walked into a room. Now I feel like Shrek :( Whenever I put on a dress, it looks ridiculous. I look like a big man in drag.(and not a pretty one!) It's awful. When I get down to around 170, I'll start feeling more…

This:

Check out this site for Ford models. http://models.fordmodels.com/models Click on a girl's photo - then click to the left where is says FORD. Under the photo, the girl's height, measurements and size will pop up. 99% of them are under 18, 5'10 and 5'11 and size 2.

At 24, you are too old to start a serious modeling career :( Sad but true. (I am talking about signing with the big agencies.) Also, to do runway, you need to weigh between 110 and 120 @ 5'11". Another sad truth. (Unless, of course you are a VS model and you better not be over 135) That being said, there's nothing wrong…

I see that you have been here since June and have no MFP friends, and this is the only thread you have posted on. Perhaps having a few friends here and posting a bit more will help cheer you along! We're all here to help and motivate one another :)

When you[re taking clothes out pf the dryer and your husband says, "Sweetheart, you dropped a T shirt", and you look back and realize it's not a T shirt, but your underwear.. :embarassed: I have a shirt the same crazy color, but of course I never told him it was my huge *kitten* undies.

Sounds like your 7 year old needs to learn some manners..

LOL XD

THIS is hot.. and is not a size zero. Yes, probably a six: http://www.kaboommagazine.com/userfiles/kaboommagazine.com/Cindy-Crawford-76.jpg
