okay, here are three women that claim to be around 5'4" and 235ish pounds
They all look so different to me, but it may be partially the body shape.
Oh, and wwdoll, I'm wearing size 18s right now (they cause a little muffin top so they don't fit perfectly, but my 20s are a bit too big to be comfy).
Oh really? Me too. I went from 22s to 18s. Mine fit almost perfectly in the waist, but are lose around my thighs/legs. I shaped my legs up by walking everywhere. We should be weight loss buddies. We have a lot in common.
That's good to know, that means mine will probably stop giving me the muffin top by the time I'm your weight (looking forward to it).
oh, and I'd love to be your weight loss buddy. I warn you, I don't exercise very much, but I'm planning to start Jillian's 30 day shred this month, so I might complain a bit but probably not too much.
so wormwoodDoll, if we might be weight loss buddies, I should tell you a little about myself. I'm 22, an undergraduate at Ohio State studying anthropology. I love art and tattoos- I used to paint (still do sometimes) and got a little way into a tattoo artist apprenticeship before I went back to school (I want to get fully trained someday, but so busy!). I'm engaged to a great guy; we're probably not going to get married for at least a couple of years, but I already got the ring, so I'm happy. Earning money, finishing my undergrad work, you know.
I don't really work out very much, but I'm trying to start Jillian's 30 ds this month. I'm a calorie counter, and I shift my calories anywhere from 1300 to 1700ish (but I try to stay away from the high end).
luvja- I know, she does look a lot bigger, but I've come across a lot of women who are saying that they weight 235 and look that big or bigger.
That pic came from this site:
Okay - I currently live in Philadelphia with my fiance and cat Valerian. School is on hold for me at the moment. I am waiting for my fiance to graduate in September. I want to go for anthropology, which is quite weird, haha. I want to be a forensic anthropologist.
I love body modification / art. I currently have 7 tattoos. I have an obsession (lack of a better word) with owls. My favorite musicians are David Tibet (Current 93), Wendy van Dusen (Neither/Neither World), Tony Wakeford (Sol Invictus) and Matt Howden (Sieben). I read a lot of books, mostly occult type stuff. I believe knowledge and experience are two essential things in life.
My highest weight was 256lbs in 2007. Right now I eat between 1,200 - 1,600 calories. Walking is my main exercise but am joining a gym this Friday.
Anything else?

I am a different height but I just wanted to say that when I used to be slim people would not believe how much I weigh - they always thought I weighed a LOT less than I actually did. Maybe I have heavy bones or whatever is the term for that. I stopped worrying about such things. Also, I think it also has a lot to do with different body shapes - the weigh may show up differently.
And by the way - you are a very beatiful young lady with a lovely hour glass body!
I wear a 20 right now since about 280 lbs... I can squeeze into an 18. but it makes my muffin top violent. Haha.
And that 3rd girl in that picture sure looks a lot more then 235 lbs.... ?
I seriously would have guessed like atleast 260 ...Maybe I'm crazy
I agree, the third picture looks a bit heavier than 235..... or maybe we are both just crazy....
Also, you guys are reading just a bit heavier then me and say that your wearing a size 20 and can fit into a size 18! Jeeze,... When I started at
226lbs I was busting out of a size 20 or so, and now at 180lbs I am just now able to wear a size 20pants... Really pushing it in a 18 though...
Guess shape really dose make a huge difference in things...
