Why is it prettier chubbier? ?

Question

i weigh 112.4(51kg) and i am 5'5(165cm), i really like my body and i dont think i am skinny!

Do you think i will look fat if i gain few pounds i am not willing to gain any weight just wondering if i will really look cute chubbier??

Answer 1

At 5'5", 112 pounds is kissing the "underweight" area of the BMI chart.  132 is right smack in the middle, and is certainly NOT chubby.  Quit looking at the fashion magazines and thinking that "normal" is chubby!!  You probably look skeletal at 112 pounds, just like some of the popular "lollipop head" movie stars and models that are all over the place these days.  Why on earth do we (as a society in general) find that attractive??

Answer 2

Don't change for anyone. If you're happy with your weight, then there's no need to do anything.

...But I suppose it's nice to know that you wouldn't be rejected if you gained weight.

I recommend not worrying about it.

Answer 3

People who look chubby are considered cute yes. However, you are supposed to be the way you are so don't change for noone because it can cause health problems ect. Ur fiance shud like you jus the way you are

Answer 4

Its a good thing that he is only a fiance. Its easier to assert your position. For better or worse, it is your body. If you feel healthier at 112# then stay there. However, if you work out regularly and put on some muscle, you will probably pick up about 10-15 pounds satisfying your need for fitness and his or maybe some other's sense of beauty.

Answer 5

Well, I STRONGLY disagree with him. You sound fantastic the way you are and I don't think chubby is cute at all. I'm sorry but when I see girls in bikinis and they are chubby, it just makes me want to starve myself. You are perfect! He should see that and love your body as is. If he wants a tubby chick let him go get one.

I do think you will look thick if you gain that extra weight he is requesting that you gain. I say you keep your body the way you like it, the way it is now.

Answer 6

Some people are turned on by the fact that someone used to be skinny,and then all of a sudden they get chubby or gain a few pounds.Its a vulnerable thing i think,the fact that someone who used to take care of their body so well in the past all of a sudden is gaining weight,as if they have lost control.

Answer 7

Well I am 5'5 also, and at 132 I was not chubby!  I got up to 150 and THEN I was looking slightly chubby.

I was once also 112 and looking back on it, I was a tad too thin.  I think 120-125 is perfect and want to get back to that weight.

Anyways the fact that you think 132 is cubby is offensive, because that is still 18 lbs away from being overweight.. overweight is chubby.

I think you have a distorted body image of yourself.

on the subject of chubby being "cute', um no its not... gross... fat is not cute... but 132 isnt chubby... ugh... its right in the middle of a healthy ideal weight for a 5'5 person.
