Question:

My mom keeps telling me to lose weight...?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

Everyday my mom tells me I need to lose weight, because I'm the biggest girl in our family. I work 6-8 hours a day, and don't really get a chance to go to the gym but I also don't eat that much. I'm 5'8" and I weigh 157. I know I'm not skinny, but having my mom tell me that has made me extremely self conscience. I've even had an eating disorder because of it...

Do you agree with her?

  1. Your mom must have a dysmorphic disorder herself.  You look perfectly healthy to me.  I'm 5' 8" and 147 lbs. and my doctor says I am the perfect weight.


  2. You look like a good size.

  3. I would estimate a healthy weight range for you to be 130-150 pounds, so you could afford to lose some weight.

    I calculated your BMI on Seventeen.com:

    http://www.seventeen.com/health-s*x-fitn...

    Your BMI:

    23.869

    It's healthy if you are 15 or older. Any younger, and you are overweight.

    I personally don't think you need to lose any weight. You look great, just try some more toning and maybe a few pounds will come off as a nice extra!

  4. No your mother is crazy. Your nor super duper skinny but your definitely not fat. Unless your doctor said you're in endangering your health than ignore your mother anf try to eaat healthy.

  5. omg you DONT need to lose wight at all!!!!!! your gorgeous and your body is fine! dont listen to your mom!

  6. Oh my gosh I hope you're serious and not dishing for compliments on here because that would just be pathetic. Anyway, to answer your question, you are an average weight, don't loose any more and your mom is quite mean if she says that.  

  7. your mom must be anorexic. or expecting an anorexic daughter.

  8. Wow!  You look great!

    Maybe this will help you with your mother:

  9. no, not at all!!!, u look really skinny!!!, I don't know what your mom is thinking!!! my mom tells me the same thing but I am kinda fat, i am 5'7 and 164 pounds.

  10. stop fishing sweety, if you seen that picture you must know you have a beautiful body

  11. ohmygod..

    your mom needs a reality check.

    seriously there is nothing wrong with your body!

    and you need to tell someone you have a problem, this is nothing to deal with on your own. and maybe you could explain to your mom how she makes you feel so she knows what she says is not right.

    i wish you all the luck!

    and remember, your beautiful!

  12. omg lol no way your skinny! your mom is so wrong!

    i dont think any girl would wear a bikiini if they wear

    fat! and u are like far from it! u look average. and u dont have to

    lose weight

  13. im 5ft 8 and weigh twenty pounds less. and my body looks the same as urs in the pic. do u really look like that? if so dont lose weight

  14. no. you have a great body. im not even lying. and i know exactly how you feel! my dad, mom, sis and brother are all skinny and im the only one with actual curves to my mom, having any curves makes you automatically fat. she always tells me im fat and that i shouldnt be eating certain things and shes always lecturing me. i KNOW im not overweight. im 5'5 and 120. and she still thinks i am. so i just ignore her.  

  15. You should give this product a shot. It's called Acai Berry and it's new on the market, but already endorsed by people like Oprah! I just ordered a free 14-day trial from this site.. do it today! you won't regret it!

  16. wow your mom's a b*tch! lol.

    you definitely don't need to lose weight. there's nothing wrong with toning though. but you're not fat!!!

  17. Wow no. You have a great body.

  18. no, i don't agree with her. actually, i think she's crazy! you're normal, but on the thin side normal.

  19. You've got a nice s**y body.

    If you want to do something, drink lots of water and eat healthier. I jog and it makes me feel great.

  20. omg no ur fine

    you look great in the pic just cause ur the not the skinniest in ur family doesn't mean you have to lose weight. if u really wanted only a few pounds cause thats a good weight for your height!

  21. Tell your mom to suck a d*** and die!

  22. what the h3ll! you look finnneee!

    are you sure she's not joking with you?

    if you seriously have a problem with her saying stuff like that you should tell her you don't like it

  23. NOOO your mums probably the fat one! Don't worry beautiful, your perfect!  

  24. no way..u only way tht much because u are kinda

    tall but u have a s**y body(not being forward) but

    its the truth...dont listen to ur mom because any

    guy would want a girl with a body like that...nice

    body... :] ur probrably pretty im thinking too

  25. magoshhhhh its so sad people keep fishing for compliments

  26. Honestly?

    I think you look perfect.  Don't worry about being the 'biggest one in your family.'  You should be who you are.  Everyone is healthy at a different weight.  Anyway, I think you look beautiful!  There are girls who would kill for a body like that!

  27. you have a great body - don't let your mom bring you down


  28. Are you kidding? Your body is great!

  29. You look just fine i don't know why your mom would say that forget it and live your life be happy

  30. You have a great body (no homo) :) It looks very feminine and soft, and most guys I know love that ;)

    Tell your mom to get some ribs removed and suck herself >:(

  31. no..and my Gramma tells me the same thing( i live with her) and im like the same size as you
