  • What bugs you most? (about your size)

    So, yeah. What about your current size bothers you the most?

    For me, it's the fact that all 3 of my best friends are way smaller than I am. And that wouldn't be a big deal if it weren't for the fact that 2 of the 3 are boys. I just feel uncomfortable, and like I have to cover myself up. I think it's rather natural for mostmen to be bigger than most women. Something about Biology and how men are the "protectors" (my latent feminist side is scoffing at that even as I write) makes me believe that. It's one of those instinctual things.

    How about all of you. What bothers you?

    hi Victoria,

    I have to agree with you....the thing that bothers me the most about my size is the fact that I'm bigger than a lot of men. Even losing almost 70 lbs, I'm still bigger than some men. I'm bigger than my husband...and that bothers me...not enough for him NOT to be my husband tho LOL

    Part of that is because of my height...and there is NOTHING I can do about that though.

              I have a hard time because I wear a small size, and yet I'm nearing 51 years of age. I don't want to look like a teenybopper, and yet, that's the size I am. So I am constantly wondering if I look "cheap" by wearing such small clothes.

                    I can see where that would be a problem Betty. I have a friend who is tiny...and mostly has to get clothes out of the children's section.

                      Thanks, girlfriend! I am proud, but still I don't want to look cheap, yanno?

                        One of my really good friends is on the verge of being smaller than a 0P... Anntaylor Loft has a good selection of clothes, and online they go to 00P and XXS.

                        As for being bigger than men... my boyfriend is 5'3" and weighs 135. I am 5'10" and weigh somewhere around 215... I have to admit looking in a mirror at us together is interesting sometimes.

                            I thought of another one. Jewelry bulge.
                            When I wear rings on my fingers, there's that little bulge of fat from wear they squeeze. It takes away from the beauty of the jewelry, which is lame because beauty is its purpose.
                            And, my sister gave me a necklace for my birthday, and it didn't fit.

                            So yeah, I hate the jewelry bulge.

                              I sure understand, I have a friend who buys her jeans in the little girls section.

                              But I sure hope I get small enough to have to worry about it too! lol
