I am 5'2 and weight 120 lbs. Is that attractive or should I lose more weight?

[NmarieJ]

I wear pant size 4 and I usually eat three times a day. Some people think a 5'2 woman should be at least 98 to 106 lbs.

Yes.

No

You're perfect the way you are! I worry about my weight too ( I'm sure most of us do ), but I always remind myself, so long as I'm in my healthy weight range I'm perfect the way I am. The only time I think a woman should try to lose or gain weight is when their weight is unhealthy, and when gaining or losing weight it should always be at a slow pace.

I'd also like to note for anyone who isn't in their healthy BMI, why they should slowly change their weight. If you aren't interested you don't have to read this. I recently gained weight which bothered me and slightly worried the nurses. I had gained about 20 lbs by the time the semester ended (which was about 1-2 months later). At the end of the semester I was very stressed out from finals and work. My Anxiety was getting the best of me, so I couldn't stomach food and I felt like I had no time to eat. I've been losing weight at an alarming rate even after reducing my stress. One night I had the most painful abdominal pain I've ever felt, and that lead me to this point. I have surgery tomorrow because I have gallstones. Life without a gallbladder is rough. Barely any fats, digestion problems, and even after surgery- pain. Gallstones are only one possibility, but there are others that have much worse consequences. And, I'd recommend always speaking to a doctor about any changes in diet

You don't need to lose weight. Screw people's idea as to how much you should lose to be "perfect". I'm 5'2" as well and anything beneath 115 (roughly) is not healthy and causes many health issues. Tone your body if that'd make you feel more confident but for health reasons you shouldn't lose weight.

I could use some toning. Thanks

If you can get into a size 4 then you definitely do not need to lose any weight

[Tokana]

Depends... Are you fit or skinny fat.

[PleaselllBeNiceNat]

AMEN

[queen-b]

Manly body though

[slimcharles]

Your BMI is 21.9 which is in the middle of the normal (healthy) weight range for women that in your age group. You should not try to lose weight.

[LetItBe101]

That sounds like the perfect size, realistically. Don't worry about it :)

[ledfoot64]

I like a woman like you are I am 6 foot1.5 inch tall and weigh 255 pounds

[HonestWhiteGuy]

Thats a perfect weight. in my opinion do not go below 115lbs or you will be TOO SKINNY and trust me from a guys perspective that is not attractive when you can see a chicks ribcage.

[rthomas43]

You're fine.
If you want to tone up, then fine, but don't worry about shedding pounds.

[Boomer41]

Your fine. Don't be a stick cause some magazine said that's the right weight. Be you be happy

[justbanANNAz]

[ndarsie]
