skinny vs curvy

[xXDonnaXx]

I've never been skinny so I wouldn't know, but I'm happy in a size 10-12. I am currently a size 12-14. Still got to lose my baby weight, (that's my excuse 3months on haha) But Id love to be a size 8, unfortunately, Ive got big bones and will never be that size unless I starve myself!!!!! And I like my food so that's not happening! Oh and, our fella's (when I get one) need somethin to grab!

holly just wondering, you know you said you'd have lipoif you got to a size 12, at what age do you think you'll accept the inevitable? like, what age will you think, yes i'm getting on a bit now i dont need to be dead thin? one of my mates mums is well beating herself up cos she's a 12 now and she's like 50odd! do you think you'll still think the same way when you're 50odd?

Curves for me, it just seems a lot more natural for the majority of women. That said, some women just suit skinny ... so I can understand ladies like PP saying they'd never want to be 12+. Most women however, suit a 12/14 really nicely and look fantastic in that size.

Now, while I like curves ... there's an upper limit on it. I'm personally an 18/20, and while I personally wouldn't call it 'fat', it's too big for my liking. Up to a comfortable size 16 I'd say looks gorgeous on most, after that it starts to look a little less flattering (though not necessarily bad!).

Lets play devils advocate then ....

If i were to hand you £20,000 for free to spend ONLY on cosmetic surgery/ self beautification (hair, nails, tans, etc) no combacks the money would be yours to keep.

Would you take it?

Id bite there hand off !! Actually if someone gave me 20,000 for plastic surgery you's see me skipping down the street naked as it would be the last time you'd see my fat arse XxxX

is it just me or does sizes e.g 8-10 12-14 not really mean anything?
like i go into primark and i'll be a size 12-14 but the next shop i go in will be a size 16, the next i can get a 10.
is this just me? or does it seem every shop has different sizing!?

i deffinatly prefer curvy, and i consider curvy to be kind of 34-38''waist.
i think skinny looks awful.
but thats just my opinion.

Definitely agree there. I have a friend who once lost all this weight (she was overweight) and still weighed 30 pounds heavier than me, and was saying how she could now wear size 5 jeans. I was thinking why is she able to wear size 5 and I can't, if I am quite smaller than her? It's because I have hips and a bum in my frame, and she doesn't. I have a pair of size 5 kapris that fit me well, also a size 7-but typically I wear size 9-I don't do ultra-tight like some girls do-I just don't think it is attractive to squeeze into something too small, causing love handles.
