    • Yes, unless you are extremely muscular jocky type. I am 5'2" and 105 lbs.

        • I don't know. Hard to tell. Can you pinch areas in your waist and upper arms and inner and outer thighs? Or are you saying you have like 10 lbs in your boobs?

        • I'm the same. I would describe myself as curvy and neither skinny nor fat. I'm sure I'm practically obese by Manhattan fashion standards, but thank goodness I live in Brooklyn. There's a downside to losing weight after 40: it comes off the face first and you look gaunt.

          • how much weight did you gain? how much did you weigh before you delivered? I started out 115 and went to 140lbs - I looked like a small round balloon.

        • 5'3' and 111"? not really too thin, but I've been told. when I weigh around 112 I look good. I can get a little boney easily though. I don't diet and lost 50 lbs after

    • I'm 5'4" and 120 and consider myself slender. I'd say you're just fine, not too skinny, but definitely not at ALL heavy.

        • I'm 5'4" and 120 and think i am ok. I used to be slender at 113 pre-kids. now could definitely lose some jelly belly.

    • No, I an 5'2" and weigh around 115lbs. If anything I need to tone more, but don't have the time. My weight is fine and I consider myself slim (but with no boobs- so you probably look better than me)

    • I think it matters much less what you weigh than how you look. Size is n/a because all the stores sizes are different. there should be some common denominator like: I am 5'2" and wear a size XX in 2008 bananna republic linen walkabout pants. Just posting height and weight is an indicator but not an absolute way of telling if you are "fat". but it always starts an anorexia war on here....so kind of fun to watch.

    • I think all of you people who worry about weight need to get a LIFE!!! There are many more things to worry about in the REAL WORLD!!!

      • we're trying to make a new mom feel better and have perspective on her weight. women having a healthy self image is very much part of the real world, imo.
