Is 5’5 and 118lbs attractive to you or is it too fat?

[Anonymous]

I think I’m 5’5 or 5’6 at least, but most people think I’m 5’7. I’ve been starving myself for so long but I still feel chubby and ugly. I started out 145 a couple of months ago but I’m 118 or maybe 117 now. I just want to be pretty. I’m also 19 if age matters here. And female but I think the name of the website should already imply that lmao.

I think you know this already. You've got an eating disorder. I don't know how long you've been struggling with it, or how deeply engrained in your thinking.

A girl I knew well a long time ago struggled with anorexia and bulimia... for years. It was unbelievable how much she went through to eventually re-learn how to think healthy, and to eat healthy.

I remember calling an ambulance for her twice passing out and being confused and disoriented afterwards.

But the mental shit she went through... oh my god... it was intense and a part of every moment of her life.

My experience is just as a friend to someone who really struggled with theis when she was your age, and a bit younger.

I wouldn't wish an eating disorder on my worst enemy.

I don't know if you're in denial still, or if you already know well that you have an eating disorder.

I urge you to get some help to start working your way back to healthy. You don't know what really lies down the road you're on. Or how much harder it will be to get back form the longer you are unhealthy in your thinking and as a result unhealthy in your eating.

If you would like to chat, please feel free to DM me. I would love to talk, if you're willing.

This post... gave me a serious knot in my stomach. I am very familiar with this. It's just been a long time. Please consider talking to someone (professional).

You're not chubby or fat you're female.

That comes with an increased need for bodies that require to be healthy and not overly stressed through lack of nutrition.

I've been with women about 50% heavier than I and many lower and I'm average athletic and do weights.

Being healthy and confident as a person and personality that is not concerned with the vanity of weight and height. Who you are makes you attractive.

Omg no that's not fat at all any less than that will start to look unhealthy, man like curves

[Abbycado]

You have a normal BMI range.

No it's not fat. It probably good and healthy I would have to see to be honest. . But I think it's probably Good

Safe to say at 5'5" to 5'6" and 118 lbs you are NOT fat regardless of body composition. That actually sounds like you're in the sweet spot for a healthy look. Not so skinny you look frail. Not so heavy you look unhealthy. Stop obsessing over your weight an go enjoy life.

I don't know lol. It'll depend on what you look like. Body composition is different for people.

My ex-fiance was just under 5' 4" and at least 135 lbs. She was chubby but still very attractive. I think she was looking to be 115.

Nothing wrong with your height and weight.
