I'm getting a good laugh over this one! Obviously you have not considered someone's frame size or the amount of muscle they carry. I am 5'3 and weigh 123 lbs. I wear a size 4. If I were to weigh 110 I would be bone thin - NO THANKS!
According to the charts I have looked at, with my bone structure I am considered "large" framed. I also carry a lot of muscle mass and not a lot of body fat.

Thanks, I think some people are delusional about what people should weigh. My picture is in my profile and like I said, I like pizza and beer, what can I say? I'm not perfect, but I'm not fat.

I responded to a post that said 5' 5" is unhealthy for anyone. Its borderline according BMI which is just a guideline. Since I knew someone in my late teens and early twenties who was healthy to say the least, my point stands. So what is it exactly that I did not consider? That who be someone who always thinks its about them, obviously.

Hi MsRiss7383,
Who said 135 lbs at 5'5" is fat? No one I saw in this thread. Who said everyone at 5' 5" at 110lbs is unhealthy? That would be several people and they are completely wrong. I recall this not being uncommon in my teens and early twenties. Its just barely borderline under weight for BMI which is a guideline that includes older adults being at peak weight . What is more likely to be true is most people in the fattest country that the world has ever seen has no idea what thin really is. Its not quite my taste, but then that is not the argument.
However I have seen it all here including someone telling me I didn't know what someone of a particular height and weight looked like when that exact description was sitting right next to me having a laugh herself.
I know this post is old, but this situation is exactly like mine. I'm stuck...not sure what to do. When I was younger I was a model and held several beauty titles and now a mother of two. At 5'6" at 199 pounds my husband says that I need to loose 50 pounds before we have sex. I'm so sick and upset. If I do loose the weight the hell if I would want to have sex with him. So shallow! I hope you are doing okay. I would like to hear your outcome if any...
that is considerable, i would lose that weight first, And what is all this "im 199 pounds", sorry you are 200, and that shows even more if you are shorter
I bet he probably suffers from dickie-doo diease....
