I am one of those girls. I stress about my weight because my older sister is a dress size below me so in my head i am always comparing us. Another reason is my influence , i gain and loose weight with out noticing, often others tell me you have gained or lost weight. I never loose enough to be model thin but never gain enough to be over weight. I am always thinking about my weight because the people closest to me always seem to think about it when i see them.
1. They have been told they could lose a few more pounds and could use some validation from others that they don't
2. They actually feel that way
3. It just seems like only thin people say it because very, very few overweight people would. If an overweight person said "I could stand to lose a few" it seems to open the floodgates for so many people to pass judgement and start giving advice on exactly how much they should lose
It makes sense dontcha think?
If I weigh 300 pounds, taking 10 off isn't going to change much.
If I weight a healthy 180, taking 10 off might dip me below healthy.
There's a bit of range management to factor in. As well as the detail that if they are a good weight, then they probably worry about their weight more than someone who is overweight. Not to mention potential vanity.
Good observation. I think , that they know the benefits of being fit and healthy. And they want to look beautiful.

It might be for attention. Someone who is clearly overweight most likely won't complain about it because they know they are overweight and don't need anyone to remind them. Someone who isn't probably just wants to hear people say that they aren't.. they already know they're not unless they have an eating disorder.
Because deep down they know they are closer to being perfect than the fat girls, so any flaw they have becomes more easily noticeable and "less forgiven."
It's called having a fake problem. Unless they are dealing with anorexia
RIGHT? I once muttered to myself 'I need to gain weight' and someone said 'You can have mine'. Noooooo, I'm trying to get to your weight... your perfectly fine.
They either have a mental illness. Commonly known as Anorexia.
Or they be watching or looking at too many photoshopped chickas.
They complain they are too fat, and waiting for someone to tell them they are not :D And there are some who just wanna be anorexic maybe, dono xD xD xD :D
Honestly I think it is because the more thick ones have a harder time admitting that their lifestyle is unhealthy and/or motivating themselves to make a change. Obviously that change being further away might deter some.
Because they think being more and more thinner will somehow make them more attractive even though it doesn't.
be cause they feel as though they got standards they got to live up to and feel more attractive that way
why is it that you assume one has to be stagnant in their aspiration to improve, just cause you assume they are good as they are?
Just girls mindset hahaha. Girls are sensitive to how they look.
Yeah it's called "Attention Seeking" behavior possible Bipolar disorder.
A matter of personal preference. I look better with a skinny body.
I've never complained about losing weight, just when my stomach is bloated it looks bad. I've been skinny my whole life, it won't change anytime soon.
Whoring for attention and validation, that's why. Next question... ? :) Insecurity issues...
Body dismorphia is main reason
It's what society dictates to them
Attention whores...
They're seeking attention.
because fatties are in the denial phase.
