| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/5/2005 5:27:38 PM | Well you are definately overweight if; clean-up after "dropping a deuce" involves the use of a corncob duct taped to a backscratcher....You may also have a weight problem if the last time you saw your "private parts", was with the aid of a handmirror....
edit: one of the determining factor's of a weight problem, is using the term "fluffy" when describing yourself... | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/5/2005 5:53:42 PM | just ask your doctor, according to the MD's women should be 25 % body fat but that's an average, less is usually better. and if you work out you can check your weight to muscle ratio on the internet, just type in goolge and search for height to weight ratio to see where you should be. I think people are not helping this weight issue by disguising terms, such as chunky,big bonned,thick, i mean really who are they trying to fool, let's be real- people know there fat but yet get mad when it's mentioned or reffered to that way, I think it hurts more than helps. | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 1:50:43 PM | | Good for you Naptizzlechic, at least you do not "lie" about your weight. I don't think you are overweight, and I think you are very attactive. Also Rafeal3, don't think you are overweight. I know how you feel, because I've always been so "skinny" all my life, but have put on a few pounds over the yrs. So I "feel" fat, but am not. good luck | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 2:25:47 PM | | when u have a gutt, double chin, weigh more than the dr. recommends, thighs rubb together, and little kids call you names. Pretty easy to know actually. Mirror helps one determine if they are overweight or not. Scale comes in handy too. | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 3:00:06 PM | | ^^^^ pretty much what he said.. jiggly flabby midsection is a pretty good indicater the neck is also a good place to look... I'm 6'1 205 and considerd over weigt.. But that cus I lift weights eveyday, so my weight comes from my muscle mass. So the scale is not always the most accurate thing to look at. A good thing to look at is your body fat % | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 6:05:18 PM | | A politically correct word for: flabulous, cellulostic, FATismo, chubbism, chunkomous, spillage. | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 6:23:34 PM | Its all in the way you carry yourself. I'm no size 6, but I'm a big flirt and I'm very easy to talk to and I'm happy with myself. Thats what men pick up on. If they are too shallow to look past the fact that I will never be a size 6 or 8, then I don't give them the time of day. I get hit on daily, but I also flirt back and make myself available to be flirted with. Always keep a smile on your face, put some makeup on, do your hair, things that make you feel good inside, when you feel good about yourself, you will see that the men you really want to pay attention to will pay attention. have fun!

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 10:57:48 PM | I know some ugly skinny girls, and I know some attractive bigger ones.
Personally, I don't have a problem with anyone being "big-boned". It's when they're obviously overweight that it gets to me. It usually is apparent by sagging areas, flesh rolls, things like that.
I have a female friend who's 5'9" and 195...and because she's big-boned, she's kinda cute.
But on the other hand, I had an ex-girlfriend who's 5'8" and was 140. By the time we broke up, she was 160...all beer.
In other words, it's not the insulating layer, it's whether it's natural or man-made. | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 10:57:52 PM | I think a woman with some junk aka..BOOTY and effin curves is not ova weight..
of course..im sticking up for myself too.. i agree that rolls UPON rolls are a total turnoff..but a 'chunky' woman can still look way hell sexy if she knows how to carry herself. but that only goes so far..the clothes have to come off sometime right? | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/17/2005 11:06:57 PM | You know whats sexy? A girl that loves the way she looks, no matter if she's 100 pounds to 300 pounds, nothing is worst then someone that just complains about how she looks.
I blame TV! | |

I,d say overweight is an excess of flab.
when someones body looks more like cottage cheese than a body | |

| How do you define overweight? Posted: 8/23/2005 6:02:15 AM | If you sleep on a king size bed and your belly rolls hang over the edge of the bed, you are overweight.
If you crush an ironclad toliet by sitting on it, you are overweight | |
