Your body aspirations...
There was a thread on here a while back asking who your role model was in terms of body size, shape, etc. I was thinking about it and I had originally thought Kate Winslet's body/shape would be something I aspire to. Today, the thought occurred to me that I would LOVE to have a body like Jennifer Garner's in Elektra. Man, she looked great! So I get this random idea to look up her measurements when she did that movie. Long story short, I found out that she's 5'8", 34-27-35, weight: 112lbs. WAIT, 112???!!! I'm the same height and she's more than 50lbs lighter than me? So it got me thinking, do I really want to look like that? And how come my measurements are darned near close to hers at my weight?
Anyhow, I was wondering if you have chosen a person or a size/set of measurements that you aspire to be. If so, who or what size/measurements? And do you think it's possible for you? |
i just really want to be skinny and happy with the way i look.

So much is controlled by genetics! Even at my thinniest (109) a long time ago in a galaxy far far away I never had a 27 inch waist! Then on here the other day I saw a posting by somebody 3 inches shorter than me and 20 pounds heavier that has a smaller waist than I do!!! Just can't figure some of this stuff out! I am trying to convince myself that I just need to be the best I can be for me and my body type!

Heh, Nicole Scherzinger is my body idol (and I think she just got signed by Wilhelmina) and I mean you probably can't trust internet body stats all that much, even when they're printed in lady mags it's usually some trainer guessing based on a photo...on one site I just read that she's 32-23-33, which is a double zero, and on another I just read that we have exactly the same measurements (35-27-36)...haha yeah I doubt it. She is the same height as me tho.

I'd have to say that my body aspirations would be something like Scarlett Johannson [36-27-36], Reese Witherspoon [37-25-35], Rachel Bilson [34-25-35], or Hayden Panettiere [36-25-36]

I used to really dig Scarlett Johannson and Kim Kardashian, but I can never find their right weights or sizes, so I really just want to be me but smaller.
Right now I'm 42-33-44.. So I really like my proportions, I just want like.. 10 inches off each area.. I just hope my chest doesn't get TOO small.. the butt I can handle through workouts.. I really dig the hourglass shapes that were so emphasized during the 50's.. I don't want to get too thin, but I want to gain some muscle mass to smooth me out more, but still be "soft". I used to hate my shape for the better part of my life, but now I really love it! |
I actually just found a picture of me in a formal dress and one of the dinners I had in high school. I'm using that as inspiration but mostly I just want to me happy with my shape and size. I'd rather be a size 10 but firm then a flabby size 4...

I don't trust the information about celebrity measurements.

I love Katy Perry's body. It's healthy yet curvy. She's supposedly a 32-25-36. I hope as I get closer to my good weight, my legs look that good! :D Also, a fan of ke$ha's body and lady gaga's uber toned body! Clothing wise, I love how clothes look on Zoey Deschanel.
I'm excited for when my curves aren't derived from my fat/hip bones, especially in my thighs, rather from my actual body shape! At that point, I'll be satisfied with my body. (AKA BYE SADDLEBAGS!!) |
Some of those celebs seem to have very little in the way of hip! I personally like a little more of an hourglass/narrow waisted figure. Though I admit that could have something to do with my own figure being that way inclined lol.
I just find that the slim, no hip look lacks a little feminity, its a bit boy-ish for me. Though I am floored to read some of those measurements, my own are 34-26-38! Makes me feel pretty good all things considered :D |
i like Zoey Deschanel and katy Perry....i love their styles and curvy bodies.
|
I'm like most of the rest of you...want to keep my curves for sure. I just want to be curvy, but toned and healthy. I'm definitely an hourglass and I like that...I could just do without all the extra chub hanging off this hourglass ;)
I like Scarlett J. or Sarah Ramirez. |
I would say Kate Winslet has an ideal body. She's still got curves but she's toned-basically she looks like a real person :). I'll never have Scarlett's chest so there's no point in dreaming that one
|
I have Scarlett and Kate hanging in my bathroom for visualization :)
I remember when Kate did Titanic they said she was 135 (and that was when she would get all that grief for being "heavy" gotta love Hollywood) - so really that's what I always had in mind. |
