as for me, i think im fat though ppl contest that when i make a comment.
its cuz i have to wear extra large shirts cuz my breasts are so large, and i have "birthing hips"

i dunno i feel messed up cuz my pants are size medium and my shirts are extra large, as you can tell its difficult to buy dresses that dont fit like a bag.

*kat. <-- not telling what she weighs

I'd say slim. 5'11&quot;, 140 lbs or so, and very little body fat. I can't gain weight.

Why do you think I go to the gym six days a week :).

6'-0&quot;, 145 lbs soaking wet. That definitely puts me in the &quot;slim&quot; catecory, but I prefer to refer to myself as &quot;wiry&quot;.

Mister T,

Actually its correlation does not imply causation that any beginning statistics course will teach you. Significance is a completely different function based on your alpha value. Wrong, but thanks for playing. Have a happy day:)

You're fun. Lets keep playing.


&quot;A person that lifts and exercises regulary with have more strength and energy than an inhently &quot;skinny&quot; person with a low BMI. I would also argue that the he/she would have longer and enjoyable lifespan.

BTW, a correlation does not implie significance. Any college level Statistics class would teach you that. &quot;

For all of you who say &quot;I can't gain weight&quot; just go to college for a semester. In my first semester I gained 20lbs. Prior to that I was 6'2&quot; and 170. Now I am at 188. I need to start running again to lose some of the extra weight (fat) but it's cold out now. Most of the extra weight is muscle though now that I have been hitting the weights again. As for build, I would consider myself athletic.

I'd say I'm chubby because I'm a bit overweight for my height and build.
I also have &quot;birthing hips&quot; and an ample bosom. >sigh<
Personally I think I carry it rather well.
I just get discouraged because I tower over my petite in-laws so I feel enormous even though I know I'm not.

Nightowl, I've lost weight in college. You were 170 to start with, while I was maybe 150. Now I'm at the Slim/Anorexic level, 6' 140lb(see LOB's ugly picture thread)

5'11&quot;, 200lbs. Pretty musclar (I do lifting) but I could still stand to lose 15 pounds or so. Been working on it for a while...used to be a lot heavier.
