I'm 225 lbs and out of shape. So I'd say my ideal weight for my height and body shape is prolly; 195-205lbs.

My girl absolutely hates the scale! I try to explain to her, that

1) she's a tall girl

2) a scale measure the weight of your entire body, including muscle, not just fat and

3) the amount of water you body carries, varies weekly, daily, maybe even hourly.

She's close to 180 lbs, she thinks that women shouldn't way that much. I tell her, that's ridiculous. She's a curvy woman with hips, thighs, butt, boobs and ain't nuttin wrong with that. Her ideal weight maybe 160-165 lbs which means she only has 10-15 lbs to lose.

What's the absolute largest or smallest weight you can tolerate before you say to you significant other; "Stop eatin that!" or "You need to eat somethin!"

I think 180 lbs on a woman is fine. Whatever she feels comfortable with. But I know that some girls always feel they need to work something out with their figure. Too me it's fine. She is healthy. I love my ladys body shape.

Oh, I'm fine with somewhere prolly between 100 and 300 pounds, and that's just a rough guideline

Aesthetically, I tend to prefer my men "underweight" and my women "overweight", but if I like ya, I don't really give a damn.

Gotta have curves. What else is there. If a woman can't be a woman. It's all wrong. The female body does have many curves. In the natural form. Not too skinny. That is what makes them the most beautiful creatures on earth.

this is why i love the org...real men who appreciate real women.

i am a 6ft tall beautiful, curvy woman of the 170-180 lb range. i don't get approached by men often when i'm out although my guy friends tell me its because i'm intimidating. i think its bullshit because i find the men in my area prefer women that are 5ft tall and 100lbs soaking wet.



i need to move. any suggestions??

That's beautiful!

oh...and to answer the question...

i like men of almost all shapes and sizes. being tall though i prefer a man in the 5'9 to 7ft range. i like 'em skinny, medium build and husky. if he's a clean man, respectful and has something interesting to say i'll give him a chance.

I'm 5 foot and weight about 130, 135 lbs. That may sound like a lot for such a short person, but I'm VERY curvy. Two years ago my stable weight was 120, but I added some more once I started birth control (and I'm not complaining - much - because my boobs grew a LOT). Surprisingly, what with all the fried food, beer, and lack of exercise, I didn't add (much) weight when I was in London. However, it's not all good. I have a bit of a stomach that I would love to get rid of but I just love food too much. I've had that stomach (in various forms) for most of my life. But it goes away when I suck in so I'm just constantly holding my breath! My thighs also touch, but then again, the only time they didn't touch was when I was very very young. I don't even remember those days. But, as my boyfriend says, I've got "killer legs" and especially "killer thighs" so I couldn't be happier with that (plus I have very small feet!)

I LOVE curvy women, but I envy thin women - especially those with flat stomachs - like nothing else. If I had been born in ancient times with the Greeks and the Romans, they would have had a field day sculpting my body because my body is an exact replica of the womens' bodies back then. I hate the gym and it takes too long to get results so I just shy away from it. I tend to eat healthy, for the most part - MUCH healthier than my peers - I just love food! It's hard to cut down on what you love most. Getting and staying skinny just sounds like too much of a committment, too much work - work I HATE, might I add - so I'd rather just be curvy and enjoy doing the things I love. Life is hard enough without intentionally adding pain to my regimen.

My boyfriend is around 6 foot and he weighs 11 stone, which is 154 lbs. He's pretty damn skinny, but has always been that way. He's got an incredibly fast metabolism so his body just burns up the mass quantities of food he eats - and believe me, that's a LOT of food. Thinking about my last three serious boyfriends, they've all been tall and skinny. I guess I prefer my guys that way. I don't like muscley men because it signifies (to me) that they're total roidheads and go to the gym way too often. There was also a guy who I was head over heels with for many years, and he was very chubby - so for me, overwhelmingly it is about personality and intelligence than body type or personal appearance.

I love to see women with curves and hips enjoying herself and enjoying life. Like July said, that is the way that it should be. That's what's natural. In London, there were two girls with eating problems on my course. They were really really scary, but it's so easy to see how they could get to that stage.

So there you go. This is the most honest I've ever been regarding my weight and body - a difficult topic for me to discuss - on the org.

Yeah, come to Detroit dear. I promise you'll get gawked at THere's nothin sexier than a woman with confidence

i'm about 6'2", and weigh around 185-190. i think i'm ok, but wouldn't mind toning up a bit. i'd love to have fallen in love with a man taller than me, but my man is only about 5'10", and weighs around 160. do we look weird together? do i care?

blueprince, i would say to just keep telling your woman that you love the way she looks. and say it often. maybe it will sink through someday . . .

oh, and buy her lots of presents.

I'm the one who needs to lose weight in our relationship...

I'm 5'7" and weigh in at 210...my ideal weight is around 170-175, so i've got
a little ways to go. Isn't it terrible how bad you look in pictures when you look at them?
No one else seems to nit-pick, but I am too aware that this is the heaviest i've been
in my life.

My wife is 5'even and weighs in at @ 125...a nice weight for her. She just wants to tone
her belly a little.

I am 6'4 235 but im not fat mostly muscle and I am pretty cut but I need to lose about 15 or so pounds for basketball I would like to get some more quickness....I need to start jogging but I find that so boring but it needs to be done... And work on my abs they used to look nice now ughh....

I like this thread.

I'm 5'4 and weigh 130....I don't wanna loose weight..I just have to work out more, but I'm lazy

btw nothing more sexy than ppl who are confident abt themeselves...no matter what size

Natsume said:

me too

Natsume said:

high five on the curvy, girlfriend.

i'm a couple inches taller than you, arond the same weight. i'm boobs, though. blessing and a curse.

starkitty said:

When I was younger, I wished and wished and wished for boobs more than anything else. I was even planning on getting implants when I got older. Now I have them and though they are nice sometimes, more often than not they get in my way. Most shirts don't fit me just because of them. Like you said, a total blessing and a curse.

Natsume said:

i heard you were a tiny thing

i'm not against anyone having surgery to make themselves feel better, but implants just seem so... fake to me.

starkitty said:

trust me, I am ALL boobs... anyway, I wanted implants years and years ago. When you watch as much Howard Stern as I used to - especially at the age I was at - I think your sense of things get a little skewed. I am all for breast implants, but not any of that triple F shit. In the same breath, though, I would never EVER get any plastic surgery.

Natsume said:

i think the payoff of plastic surgery is that the thing you were so hung up on - whatever part of you gave you a negative body image - is 'fixed', and so you don't think about it anymore. not that you think so much of the new improved body part (whatever it may be), it's just that you are not hung up. and that can be freeing.

in my opinion.

I'm 5'3 142 pounds....Doctor told me I should be about 130... I'm ok with myself I guess I have better things to worry about than my wieght.

starkitty said:

I think, though, with plastic surgery, once you get something fixed, you notice something else you don't really like or you want improvement on - my thighs are too fat, my nose has a bump, my lips are too thin and so on and so forth. Plastic surgery can be very addictive, I'm sure. So although there is an instant gratification definitely going on, in a way it can be a vicious cycle. Where does it stop? That's a major drawback...

I is ripped and i like my women thick in da hips. I'm about 6ft and whey about 200lbs rite now.
I is a lean mean sexy machine. A woman that is about 5'6 to 5'9 wheying between 135 and 170 is ideal for a man like me. And a waisteline is a must.

Natsume said:

ditto.

I'm 6'3 245lbs. I'd rather sit and read a two page fanatic thread on god in the p&r forum than lift weights.My job keeps me in shape, along with chasing my damn dogs a mile down the beach.

As far as the women I date go.It really all depends.I don't like them too skinny or heavy.
