How big is too big?

For me, too big is where I am now. A lot of people tell me I'm too skinny, but when I have kids and teenagers asking me if I'm pregnant, I'm too big. I'm not, by the way. lol But I have the opposite problem you have. I don't eat enough. I usually only eat one meal a day and that's just as bad as eating too much. Especially now that I'm older and my metabolism isn't as good as it use to be. But with taking care of the kids, my husband, the animals, the house, and trying to make a few bucks on line, plus working as a substitute teacher I find it hard to find time to exercise. I need to get myself on a schedule so I can get everything done and have time to exercise.

Wow. I think anything over 300 pounds is big. I am a big girl my self and I would like to lose weight. But it is hard, I love the junk food and I love eating late. I can stop the junk but the eating at night. I don't know. I need help and I need God to help me , make me strong so I can look and feel happy once again. if you have any ideas please let me know. I need to lose weight fast, before i have a stroke or even diabetties.

I wish I was able to say ok I am putting a cap on my weight. It didnt work out like that for me. I started gaining and seems like no matter what I was going to gain even if I didnt want to. there was a long period of time in my life that I didnt gain or lose anything and I stayed put then I got pregnant and it seemed that for about 4 years I was nothing but pregnant which I guess is a good representation since I have 3 children ages 2,4,and6 and I had a miss carriage in there too. but during each pregnancy i lost weight instead of gaining and then after giving birth I gained all the weight I lost plus some. I think that 200lbs for a man isnt that bad they dont look heavey at 200 well at least all the ones I have seem dont but woman are different arent we if we are a t 200 lbs then we really show it. so 150-175 for a woman is a good weight.

Before I got pregnant with my daughter, keeping the weight off was no problem. Actually I went into my pregnancy a little bit over my ideal weight. I've been fat and I've been skinny, and neither one has made me any happier. If you love the person that you are, then you can be happy with any weight. Some super skinny women feel that they are fat and disgusting. And, some overweight women think they are the perfect size. So, ideal weight is different for everyone. When I was 160 pounds I looked very fit and in shape, because I worked out constantly. Not sure why it worked out that way. Maybe I have big bones! From a health stand-point it would be ideal to weigh much less than I do. But right now, that's not going to happen. So, I try not to beat myself up about it. I'm not super obsessed with being skinny. When I start using my stationary cycle again everyday, the weight will fall off. Till then, I'm stuck with it!

You have so many discussions dude I totally missed this one! Oh my god, I've always been a yo-yo as far as my weight being up and down all the time. I say, I'm not a libra for nothing, those scales were meant to be there for something. I always fluctuate, but hey it happens, and it also runs in my family. I've learned to accept it for a while, and then I decide not to accept it and make a difference. Ultimately, I want to be healthy and that's all that matters to me. Hell yeah to OCB! LOL.

Big is when you pause on every landing of a stair for a minute, well or you have a nice tube at your waist. Wobbly ladies are likely to die sooner, even dudes....common knowledge.
