What would you say is too thin?

March 11, 2010 4:51am CST
Well im about a size 8-10 so i think that a size 6-8 in usa.I personally dont think im too skinny except for i sometimes look abt silly when wearng dresses as my boobs are quite big always have been lol.I was just wondering what size would you say is too thin? Ive always thought the usa size 0 thing is riciculous it looks awful personally and why anyone would want to be that thin i dont know.I used to be size14 in uk sizes and i lost weight and im really proud of myself i feel more confident, and people have noticed i am.I would never wear a dress before.Ive been a uk size 8-10 for 2 years now and would never want to put on weight but i certainly wouldnt want to lose anymore. So what do you think is too thin? id love to know :)

It isn't really about dress size. What is a healthy weight for you depends on your height and build. There are many free calculators available to calculate your Body Mass Index. One of them is here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/healthy_living/your_weight/bmiimperial_index.shtml As long as your weight is within the limits, you can be sure that you are neither over nor underweight and it is more the distribution of muscle and fat that you may want to concern yourself with. Everyone is different, however, and the key to happiness is to accept what you are given and to take care of it.

thanks for the reply ive always thought size is a strange thing my bmi is in normal range which is good. Some people prefer larger people to skinnier people too ive never thought it is nice to see bones sticking out though.But on the other hand being too fat that your health is at risk isnt a good thing either.It makes things difficult though because nowadays you cant eat anything without people saying its bad for you.I love carbs but abit ago they said they wasnt good for you.I eat healthy things and i eat eat not so good things.I dont eat chocolate as im not keen on it.But im a healthy weight so i have nothing to worry about

Judging by the photos in your profile, you have nothing to worry about. The good thing is that, however we think we look, there is always somebody somewhere who will appreciate us for being what we are. The best way to find them (if we want to) is to BE ourselves!

Hello my friend. Well, I've took a look on your profile photo. And for sure you must be proud of yourself. You look great, (your boobs too :P), keep in this way, and don't lose weigh. See you around ;)
