Re: How skinny is too skinny?

I am 5'3" and I want to get to 135. I have an athletic frame so anything lower then that would look too skinny on me. I also prefer curves and my husband loves curves as well as athletic bodies. He's much rather an athlete than a model.

I'm 5'8" no hips, no butt, figure of a boyChat Icon

I would like to be between 140 & 150 I think that's healthy for me. That being said, I need to lose 20 pounds and tone up a lot.

Re: How skinny is too skinny?

I am 5'7". I want to be 145. I am currently in the high 150's.

I will take 150. I have big boobs and overall curvy.

On my wedding day I was 130. I know i won't see that number again...I don't think i looked too skinny but i had people telling me i was very thin. I know I can look good at 150 too.

I have 10 pounds till my goal (which i set at a random 147). It seems like i'll never get there. I lose a pound or less a week it seems, and its frustrating!! I try NOT to look at the # but honestly, isn't that what counts on weight watchers?? They don't weight you and say "you didn't lose BUT it looks like you lost inches!" Lol.

Re: How skinny is too skinny?

My goal is 120, but that is in the middle of my healthy weight range. I'm barely 5'2".

ETA: even though I would be happy at 130, I want to get to 120 to lose some of my boobs. I'm a DDD.

how tall are you?

i am about 5'6.5" and at one point i got down to 115lbs. looking back that was WAY to skinny. i'm now about 129ish and i want to get to 123-124.

i think it depends on your build and height.



I agree. It really depends on a lot of things. I got myself to around 115 at one point also and I didn't look good. I look healthiest around the 120-125 range so that's where I like to stay. I'm about 5'5. I have a very athletic frame (before pregnancy obviously! Lol) so anything too low and you could see my bones.

Re: How skinny is too skinny?

The charts say my healthy weight range is 106-116 lbs...well I look like a skeleton when I get under 115. I weigh 133lbs now, and I'm still pretty curvy and I definitely do not look overweight even though according to the charts I am. I think a healthy weight is what you look and feel good at.

Re: How skinny is too skinny?

I'm 5'5 and my thinnest was 108 around 5 yrs ago. Now I'm mid-120s. Ideally, I like to be around 120lbs, 115 or less it is a bit skinny for me. I don't think it's an issue - I'll never see those numbers on the scale again anyway Chat Icon
