Are You Considered \"fat\"

I'm a 27yr women at 5'5 150LBS & wear a size 8/10(US) BMI is 25 right on the line of being overweight. I do my no means conceder myself fat, I think I am just normal. So maybe I could lose 5-10lbs so that my BMI is in the normal ranges, but I am not going to make myself feel bad about it!

I am happy with myself and that�s all that really matter!

Im am certainly not considered fat, infact- you can see my ribcage even when I breathe out.

I do, however have obese friends, and I think its terrible how everybody else looks down on them. One of them, for instance [I will not use the name] who is only 15 years old, and used to weigh 16 stone 9. He has lost a lot of weight since then, but he is still considered obese. Everybody in school makes fun of him, and to be honest, I don't think thats right.

Having said that, I have a friend who used to be anorexic, and she used to be picked on a lot, people walking by used to pretend to vomit, I know it doesn't sound bad but when you think about it, she was going through a lot by being anorexic, it doens't help when people poke fun at you.

Fat or skinny... What does it matter? People should put aside their differences and just get along. But then again, no world can ever be perfect, I suppose its one of those things that just can't be changed..

Well, thats my opinion, I'd like to see what the rest of you think, so keep posting.

Thanks.

I'm not fat and don't look fat

I think it's more important to measure your 'fat' based on BMI rather than what you see in the mirror. Because people now have different standards on what physically constitutes fat. Some people may think that only stick-thin people are considered thin and everyone else is fat, which is extremely unhealthy. So the best way is to use BMI to gauge whether you are overweight.

Mine was 23 point something . . . I don't think it matters if it's considered normal weight or not . . . I think being even close to being borderline overweight (25) at almost sixteen because, well, don't women have a tendency to gain weight as they get older? Meaning, it would be really, really, really easy to end up with a BMI of 30 at age 28 if I don't watch it in college . . .

But honestly, as long as you don't look scary fat in clothing, and your clothes fit well . . . health risks aside, should it matter if someone's a little on the fat side?

Oj, I did not understand a single thing of that BMI. Inches? Sorry, I will stick to the metric system...
It considered me as underweight. :S I would actually like to be a bit... not so thin, so if anyone got some kilos to spare just give me a pling.^^
