I have a problem, cos im short & fat. It seems that if you weigh a little bit more than most, that you have to be something like 7ft8 tall or something stupid. I'm forever having trousers shortened, or shorts looking like trousers... |
The only thing I hate about being slightly overweight is that things fit so much better when youre slimmer and you can buy any clothes you want. |

yeah, everything in the last 2-3 years here has been slim-fit which doesn't suit someone of my size at all, however I've grown out of the 'looking good' phase, i'd rather feel good in myself first, and if someone thinks that looks good, then i'll take it happily as a second. |

It isn't just unhealthy looking, it is detrimental to her health. She has no fat deposits to rely on in the event that she gets sick.
Risks of being underweight:
Higher risk of osteoporosis.
Decreased immune system, eg. more colds and flus.
Period cessation or irregularities.
Infertility.
Being underweight, whether it looks good or not, is not healthy for the body. We are meant to have some meat on our bones, especially for women.
I am not debating what squirrely should do, or suggesting there *IS* something wrong with her, I am just stating some health facts. And no, I am not a hypochondriac, for myself or others, I am just concerned for the healthy living of people. |

I'd freak the hell out if I saw blood and gore and . Haha!
No, nursing isn't for me, but I do want to be an elementary school teacher, and hopefully I will be able to encourage them to live healthy :D |

No one has ever told me I look unhealthy. I'm fit, I work out, that's it. I just have a tiny frame. I guess my big boobs are what make me look healthy haha! And I've been to the doctors several times... none have ever suggested I have an eating disorder or that I need to eat more.
jeez, I just wanted to know where to get jeans! |

btw, squirrelly, I've always had problems finding jeans my size, until last year I was a 28 waist and a lot of stores would cut off at 29 or 30. They're all about profits so they pretty much ignore anyone who's not the average size or fat. seems like they cater to fat s. |

I'm annoyed. Why is it, that they never have pants long enough for thin women? Seriously?! Every store I go to, their "long" sizes are just a joke. It seems like it's a pre-req that if you're tall you must also be fat and have thunder thighs.
Are any of the handful of ladies that get on this site tall and thin? Where do you buy your pants? I'm a size 1, sometimes a 2 depending on the brand & 6'0", and I can never find pants long enough. If they're long enough, they're too big. |
and I have problems being a size 1 and so short
:(
btw sara does not look unhealthy at all. WHat's the big deal about being a size 1. She tall and it looks good on her.
I weigh very very lil too. Alot less than Sara that's for sure. |
