But, I DO have self esteem. If you don't believe me, check out my more recent posts in my Ta-da thread in the Picture forum. We have no reason to be ashamed of ourselves, so yeah.

ladyscorp2006 Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 I'm 15, 5'5", 120lbs. And I don't even eat that much. I have a VERY SLOW metabolism for a person who only eats once a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyscorp2006 Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 No offence but I think I am the only girl who doesn't stress over her weight. I am 15 yrs old 5'5" and 120 lbs. As I see it the way I eat (only one meal a day) I should be much more skinnier than I am. But I'm not and I don't care. I like the way I look in a swimming suit. Even though all of my friends say I have a butt bigger than J Lo's and the thigh's to match. I think that most people should not even care. As long as your happy the way you are nothing else should matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(the part that was quoted). The fact about sex was only there as an analogy to show how that was not a very good way of thinking. It's not just sex or food that you should consider the consequences of when making a decision. If you disagree with that idea, I really wonder how you make any decisions. Whether it's having sex or just buying a Twix bar, it's still a decision and the consequences of either should be considered. There are lots of good things with bad consequences. You can't just ignore the bad in order to enjoy the good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PiroMunkie Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 [size=1]Currently (I just went upstairs and weighed myself) I am about 136 pounds, I am roughly 6 feet - 6 feet 1 inch tall, and I am seventeen. Although, that is on a full stomach, plus the clothes I am wearing right now. I am probably underweight, but I do not really care. I am fine with how I am. I think I just have a high metabolic rate.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satan665 Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 You are probably really good looking, but the problem is that a bathing suit is only compared to the 10 billion pictures of models that everybody see's everywhere. Isn't it actually really rare that someone has a super slim flat belly and huge boobs? If everyone were supposed to look like that then every woman would be able to quit her job and model whenever they wanted. Fashion and television take a specific look that happens to not be what 98% of us all look like in reality, then they make that the standard of what everybody wants to look like. Its so ingrained in all of our minds that you don't like the way you look in a swimsuit. I think anyone who can be OK with being over the "ideal" weight and look is probably way smarter than most americans. I struggle with the same thing.

Guest Crimson Spider Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 According to all those charts, I am rediculessly underweight, even though I got a gut and man boobies. I weigh anywhere from 140 to 170. My weight switches from range to range almost randomly. Last time I weighed myself, I weighed 142. EDIT: I'm 5/10. 15 years, almost 16.

Mitch Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 [size=1] Wrist Cutter isn't saying a thing wrong. He's simply showing that there are lots of things out there that are good with bad consequences. Doing drugs. Having sex. Eating a lot of things... All of those things are good in some ways, but also in the long-term have a chance at doing bad things as well. If you can't do that when you do anything, then it's nearly impossible to come to a decision about a lot of things. Because first you have to put everything in front of you and see what are the things that could happen. I used to weigh about 200 pounds. I will say I was really happy when I weighed that much. What made me happy? Eating food. It took away all of the stress I ever had mostly...I was never depressed. Then I decided that I needed to lose weight. So I did. Now I weigh about 140 pounds..and I'm guessing most of that is muscle, because I exercise quite often now. Now, as a result of losing my weight, I get depressed a lot more often. The excersise I do and the writing I do help with that...but that's what Wrist Cutter is saying. There's often a bad consequence that happens to something that is good. And people often overlook that just to be the way they want to be, no matter how hard it is on them. That was, I think, what Wrist Cutter is trying to say, at least in part.[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Shinkoru [/i] [B][color=indigo] Heres the thing, Today I went swim suit shopping, yes I know its kinda late but still. By the time I was finished, I felt horrible, my self esteme had dropped to zero and my Ego is two inches tall and badly bruised. I was wondering, why does soceity put sooo much emphasis on how people look? I mean if people were nicer and looks didn't matter as much then slightly over weight people wouldn't be embarrsed to show themselves in public. I'm 16 and afraid to tell people my weight which I admit is a bit over, i weight 138, but still. I'm fairly attractive (sp?) and usually am told I'm pretty and look nice. But yett swim suit shopping destroys me. I would like your imout and opinions on this. Don't you agree less emphasis needs to be put on looks and more on the person? I mean sure my thighs may look eatroshous but, I'm still a great person to hang with, ya know? Please respond. Thank you.[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] you should stop eating. I mean food only makes you fat so why do you eat it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satan665 Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 I stand by my original post, even though you are right (wrist cutter) that it is about self confidence. I believe that if you can be self-confident in the face of the mass-media image, then you are very intelligent in that way. Doesn't mean you are a genius (obviously), but I'd call it intelligence. Oh yeah and I think anyone who eats only once a day would probably have a slow metabolism. (something like your body knowing it will not get a lot of food so it slows down the metabolism) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilike them everage. Everything nice and straight, with little curves. The kind of person who pays attention to their diet to keep it in control, but doesn't eat like one breadstick a month. I think about what they're like more than what they LOOK like. Of course, like I said, I could just be insane, or not have hit puberty or something. [/B][/QUOTE] [B]I hope all guys think that way, Do they? Do they care about weight or the overall size of the girl? And what if she gots stretch marks, but is skinny, huh, what then guys?[/B] Thanks to everyones great advice at the OB, I've lost tons of weight, and I'm now down to 123 as of today!

Zen Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 I used to be a bit of a flat body myself. But since i've started playing basketball and studing martial arts, i am have become more muscular. I am 5'7" and a half and i weigh 114ibs. I am exactly 7 percent body fat. So i'm mostly bone and muscle. Geeze, i'm skinny. I'm 13. So, i'm in pretty good shape.

Shinkoru Posted August 19, 2003 Author Share Posted August 19, 2003 [color=indigo] I agree its really hard to find a swim suit that covers my chest. Thats only reason I have even a partal self esteme. Teehee. And btw I found a swim suit that makes me look "drop-dead-gorgoues" But I do have a small problem with weight and my ideal is 110-115. But still I think I'ma try eating right, not a diet, but less pizza and Burger King couldn't hurt..right? teehee and on the minor sex topic that poped up..lol I have the safest sex of all.. hehe 4 me ot know, and u not to find out :-D Anyways Tkz a lot and I'll keep postin' how I do, not like u really care.lol Alsoo I think that some girls, my best friend for example, do have weight problems, she went to starvin herself and ida died for her body, shes 14 and got down to 90 lbs! Myself and her boyfriend forced her to stop. But a lot of it comes from guys, other girls and tv. Women and men alike put a lot on how u look and what kinda person u are pending ur weight, like fat people can't have fun or something. Puleeze. I agree with Wrist Cutter though. So yeah If people were nicer and just took prozac everyone owuld be happy! lol j/k :) so yes. And also Ive proved fat pplz can have fun, I know a lot of them. And girls who are soo chonsous their boyfriend no likes how they look, word of advice, IF he didnt like how u look, he wouldnt have started dating u in the first place. And that goes for myself too, I was alsy soo obthred if Phantom thought how i lookedu ntil I got a nice lil wake up call, HE likes how i look, even if i wasss overly fat, hed love me anyway. :) Isnt the world soo nice? "SOME TIMES?" Teehee ~Danni BY THE WAY. I heard a few if ur pretties or are told ur pretties..well IF u lookit my Avatar..thats me.:)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
