/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>>7272789
What happened to having matching measurements, other than just breast measurements

If yoko were real she would probably be around 36-24-36 with some muscle definition on her stomach (not implying pic entirely related, just one I found that isnt tubby but still big boobs)

good example

Even if its a padded bra, this is how you cosplay

>>7272789
has anyone even SEEN kill la kill cosplay in their own local con? other then these ones Ive seen constantly online?

Im talking about the transformed uniforms not in regular mode.
did anyone take pictures?

You shouldn't be cosplaying Yoko if you're tubby anyway.

>>7272811

>>7272805
>If yoko were real
>if

>>7272821
thats my point, but everyone holds fat tits as what is required more then being thin tho

like a tubby yoko with big boobs is praised FAR more than a yoko who is fit and curvy but has B cups

>>7272833
>like a tubby yoko with big boobs is praised FAR more than a yoko who is fit and curvy but has B cups


Where did this happen? I have seen nothing but people make fun of any fat yokos.


The only character I've seen with big breasts that people sometimes don't make fun of if they are fat is

check out that waist line

I don't understand why anyone would want to be "tubby" even if it's some kind of method cosplaying. You are damaging your health significantly by being overweight.

>>7272852

>>7272863
>that camel toe

that looks way uncomfortable, almost impossible for how far up it goes too.

>>7272823
is the transformed mode the one in OPs pic related?
>yes never seen kill la kill
coz I've seen one at my con, people def would have taken photos but idgaf to take one myself.

OP here

Im saying my first image here is not right
this is too tubby, no real curves like in >>7272852

Boobs are more important. We notice boobs more. Boobs are often major part of the character. Slim waist? Not so much. I can think of plenty of scenes in anime involving a characters big breasts, but none where her waist was actually mentioned or even relevant in any way.

>>7272871
>is the transformed mode the one in OPs pic related?

yes

>>7272869
This. Every time the transformation sequence happens, I can feel that wedgie.

>>7272869
It's just nice and snug, that's all.

>>7272875
You know, this kind of anatomy doesn't work irl besides when wearing a corset and having years of corset training.

>>7272874
I notice fat too
I notice a curvy girl with big boobs even more

also
>Boobs are often major part of the character. Slim waist? Not so much

Have you yet seen a a popular anime girl with big boobs that wasnt thin/curvy as shit?

fatty detected

dont try to convince yourself the big boobs on the character is what defines the character,

***in the end you dont look like them

>>7272898

>>7272898
>36-24-36
>must be corset

wow is /cgl/ just fat asses today?

im 5 foot 4 and 34-24-36
its bullshit that people are calling this impossible without a corset or anorexic,

hey assholes try eating better and lifting for once

I think caring about boob size only is a sign of shit taste. It makes me a little sick to think I share a board with such utter plebs. Waist to hip ratio is arguably the most important feature in attraction as far as body shape goes.

Most of the popular Yoko cosplays are slim with C-E boobs

>>7272848

Tsunade hides the stomach
With certain costumes that cover the waist, chubby chick can have the mega cleavage while also appearing slim (some wear corsets underneath)

So the popular Tsunade cosplayers are the chubby busty ones, and the popular Yoko cosplayers are the slim ones.

>>7272898
>implying its impossible to be thinner than >>7272789

>>7272919
THIS
thank you anon Im not alone

>>7272919
Yeah this. I just feel kind of bad about admitting it, but I'm a aesthetics snob and firmly believe it's the waist to hip ratio that counts most.

>>7272948

>>7272965
this goes to >>7272961 too

>>7272905

You only notice things out of the ordinary
Slim is the default
You don't "notice" someone being slim any more then you "notice" the sky being blue

>mfw every popular female cosplayer has big tits
>mfw chubby cosplayers are more successful than titless ones
>mfw all these buttblasted flat bitches

>>7272874
Are you saying something like this will be far less popular than some tubby girl with huge tits?

>implying muscle definition isnt important to characters like yoko

>>7272981
>flat bitches
I read fat bitches

lel

>>7273005
>that stomach

>>7272981
check out this shit taste

Please don't respond to obvious pro-flab trolls.

>>7272981
>mfw every popular female cosplayer has big tits mfw chubby cosplayers are more successful
than titless ones

are you fucking retarded? the only famous ones have both big boobs AND are THIN
also the only ones that get attention at local cons are thin ones


stay fat stay mad

>>7272805
THIS

>>7273146
>>7273167
this is much better than most ive seen

>>7273045
I've always given the most attention to short, skinny flat girls over busty fat chicks.

They're just so... cute.

>>7273176
looks painful

>>7273045

tiny tits just got TOLD

>implying you wouldn't

>>7273197
I wouldn't

>>7273197
>saggy
>gut
nope

>>7273197
That picture is angled downward so her boobs look bigger and her gut smaller, and she STILL has a big gut.

Pass.

>>7272918
I'm 5'5" and 30-21-33.

It's very possible.

I don't even fucking lift. I just... am.

Large breasts are objectively superior

You cannot do anything to small breasts you cant do to large ones
Large breasts however, all that squeezing, bouncing, face smothering, titfucking action

>>7273197
>that stomach

>>7272918
>its bullshit that people are calling this impossible without a corset or anorexic,
Because... it is?

The mention of those measurements weren't even in the post you're quoting. Besides, the person who posted those measurements was referring to Yoko "if she were real", not Ryuko as-is in concept art.

I have a 14 inch difference between my waist and hips, and I don't even come remotely close to the proportions in the Ryuko concept art. Look at her waist compared to her right thigh. Her waist is at least half the size of her hips. With my 38" hips I'd have to have a 19" waist, and you'd have to have 18". Pic related is what a 20" looks like.

>>7272892
>nice n snug
You must have a penis

>>7273124
>>7273127
Her costume looks like it's made out of trashbags.

>>7273225
i disagree, big tits get in the way during sex and the woman complains too fucking much about back problems.

also small tits never sag, ever.

>>7273188
facebook / EnjiCosplay

fucking stop trying you piece of shit lard ass

>>7273017
What's wrong with her stomach?

>>7273233
Fucking bullshit that's a 20 inch waist.

My waist looks nothing like that disgusting garbage and it's 21".

>>7272918
I bet you look like a freak.
>tfw I'm not even fat, I just think that those measurements are disgusting

>>7273188


also
>"tiny tits just got TOLD"

are you 14?
fucking get out

Oh my god this thread is devolving into some mad catty bitchiness.

We've been over this time and time again OP. Fat boobs are disgusting, also you don't necessarily have to have big boobs to cosplay a big boobed character, because when you are thing (healthy) the shape of your breasts look more spherical and look more larger due to proportions.

>>7273260
>5 4 , 34-24-36
>I bet you look like a freak.

>>7273253
She's obviously sucking it in. Fuck how hard is it to lose some damn bf %?

>>7273233
>talking about 24 in waist
>posts a waistline close to 20 or lower

wow stay mad
or are you that fucking ignorant to what a 24 inch waist looks like?

>>7272967
>slim is the default

I wish that was true in America.

>>7273272
It's just typical female behavior. See, they're going to ignore all the guys who say they like small breasts, because they already have their claws into them. On the other hand, they'll pay attention only to the guys who don't care for/like small tits because those don't give a shit about them. Women only care for what they don't have.

>>7272833
>like a tubby yoko with big boobs is praised FAR more than a yoko who is fit and curvy but has B cups


Er...What? I think you've been hanging around too many fat girls who like to circle jerk each other. Actually get some male friends (I have them) and you'll find that they always notice the thin girls way more than the chubbies, unless they happen to make fun of the hambeast at the time.

>>7273238
Like everyone else eon 4chan not shit.

>>7273233
>talking about 24 in waist

You're just exhibiting atypical behavior.

>>7273282
>mfw the boobs on the right are smaller than the left

This image is pretty genius for it's simplicity, Anon. Cheers to you, I shall save it for later.

>>7272919

Waist to hip ratio is the most important when it comes to how attractive the female form is. Much like broad shoulders and narrow hips are attractive on men because it creates that V shape torso.

>>7273174

In terms of body shape sure. In terms of costume quality it's pretty ass.

>>7273319
why dont you just fucking look up videos of girls with those measurements
look up 36-24-36 on google
its not fucking hard to find and its not fucking impossible to have these measurments

this is not about me
my point is plently of women have this and its healthy and natural
being fat isnt

>>7273332
>In terms of body shape sure. In terms of costume quality it's pretty ass.

yes that true

>>7273336
What are you talking about. Having fun watching girls fight and enjoying drama is a treasured female pastime. I'm being very typical.

>>7273311
You...

...can't read.

Like, holy shit you can't read.

>>7273346
No, girls like causing and being in the middle of all the drama. It's the only thing that makes their lives interesting.

All those lifetime drama movies are meant for the woman to self insert. Not wanting to be in the drama is atypical. Fucking weirdo.

In another thread a bunch of cunts said I was fat because my waist is 28". I'm fucking UNDERWEIGHT for my height. I get constantly made fun of for how thin I am. I would actually need years worth of corset training to make my waist smaller.

>>7273347
well this >>7273311 is what yoko would look like realistically
no one is saying you need a 20 inch wasit with a 36 bust and hips

>>7273359
how tall are you what are your other measurements?

>>7273359
Give us a pic then. If you aren't fat, then you shouldn't have any hesitation with letting us see.

>>7273359
mfw I used to be 34-28-36 and 5 4 thinking I was underweight
mfw I realized I overate and bloated constantly
mfw when I stopped eatting so much sweets and the whole pizza and ate mostly meat and vegetables
mfw I started lifting
mfw im now 34-24-36 and loving my body and feeling the greatest ive ever felt, confidence wise and healthy wise.

anyone who calls me anorexic now I understand that they are just ignorant like I used to be

good lord, seeing all this asshattery about weight really rustles my jimmies

>>7272811
Going to add that she's also wearing a corset for that perfect waist but I do admire how she went the extra mile.

The only reason I'm on /cgl/ is because I enjoy the spreging over weight. It's weirdly fascinating and entertaining.

>>7273381
because youre fat

>>7273359
cry baby cry
do you honestly expect this thread to sugar coat your tubby stomach?

>>7273356
Get off 4chan and actually meet some women. Most prefer to spectate.

>>7273248
>>7273268

you said
>are you fucking retarded? the only famous ones have both big boobs AND are THIN

I proved you wrong

A slim girl being more popular doesnt change that

>>7273197
>people actually became

>>7273417
They like to gossip about it, which is just the same thing as putting themselves in the drama. Don't you fuck with me, I'm an expert in this field. I have inputs from every source possible, and the things that I find out to be actually right are the ones that normalfags, mansluts, virgin robots, and every other type of guy somehow notices all on their own. Such as how men want relationships more than women these days, and women want to sleep around more.

Men still want to fuck around, but would prefer a serious relationship while women just kinda want short term "fun" relationships.

cont from >>7273391

in high school I was made fun of for being anorexic and too thin

several years later I now finally realise all of those girls were way bigger than me, they had like 30-35+ waist lines
it really blows my own mind I never realised this even as a senior, this really shows how ignorant people are in high school and what bullying can do, funny thing was these were my "friends", and a lot were from people I barely knew

>>7273362
I'm 5'6" and weight 118-119 lbs. As you can see, my bones stick out like crazy. Those are my ribs and hip bones.

>>7273427
You and I live in very opposite worlds then. It's very much the other way around for the people I know.

>>7273433
Here's another pic.

>>7273437
Like I said, you're a weird as motherfucker.

>>7273433
>>7273441
you'd be perfect if you had tits and did a little bit of weight lifting

>>7273449
Yeah, I hate having tiny titties too. But oh well, I'm too poor for BA...

>>7273433
I would definitely classify you as curvy instead of skinny. Not fat at all, though.

Delicious.

>>7273433
I think it's less height and more bone size/body type too. Because I know girls at 5'6 who have smaller waists than you, without being as thin.

>>7273433
what are your MEASUREMENTS

and seriously people hip bones are fucking healthy and normal
and with that height, if you are like a 30 in waist line try eating more meat and vegetables rather bread and sugar .

hip bones are normal
only in america hip bones are rare and unatural because barely anyone is thin enough

>>7273447
I'm not the anon you were replying to.

And it really isn't weird. I think it's just a matter of area and social circles.

>>7273441
sucking it in

>im so underweight

you are fine

just start lifting and you will be perfect

>>7273462
32-28-33 Those are my measurements.

>>7273462
more hip bone

>>7273471
I'm not sucking it in lol

>>7273433
>>7273441
hot

>>7273462
Why do people only give America shit for being fat when England has a higher percentage of overweight people than we do? I never hear anyone say shit about British people being fat, just Americans.

>>7273470
I'm in pretty much every social circle, so I would know.

>>7273473
You're... a rectangle.

>>7273483
Mexico's fatter than America is now too and yet they don't seem to get any shit for it.

>>7273485
That's why I need a corset I think. I've seen great results from them.

>>7273433
What the problem you most likely have is that you have really high body fat percentage and very little muscle content. While you are on the lighter side of healthy, 118 is not underweight unless you're going to a really fat doctor, or an athletics doctor - and you're not athletic looking. Bones sticking out mean nothing. My 145lb, 4'6" niece has her ribs sticking out.

You also might be measuring wrong. Are you using a measuring tape? Is it level, and around the smallest part of your waist?

Also, take a photo from a normal angle, with a normal pose. The leaning back pose allows the dispersal of fat across the planes of the belly and puts all the stomach muscles into a forced flexing pose. And the low angle puts forced perspective on which makes the hips look bigger than they are. It looks tryhard.

>>7273484
You're in my social circle? Wow, didn't know any of my friends went on 4chan! Which one are you?

>>7273494
I think it's because fat Americans are the most seen tourists.

>>7273433
>underweight

Nah, you are good right there, you are fat though, but not overweight. Your need to lift some weights.

>b-but I don't wanna bulk up

You won't. You'll get a tighter body and you'll feel 100x better.

>>7273497
By social circle, I clearly meant types of people. Rednecks, poor guys, weeaboos, military, athletes, pot heads, furries. Pretty much any type of social circle.

>>7273496
I cannot take a normal pic. I don't have anything else but a webcam. That's the best I can do.

>>7273473
then just do what I said then

>eat more protein and vegetables
>less or no desserts and sugar bread products like waffles and syrup or pancakes
>start lifting
>drink even more water
>gain weight from muscle, lose fat, start looking fucking hotter than before
>probably get that 24 inch waist
>profit

you will be perfect if you put your heart into it

>>7273441
You are sucking it in so goddamn hard. Stop lying. Your diaphragm is pulled tightly in, but your belly ponch is sticking out. Anyone with a smidge or health, drawing or anatomy understanding is seeing right through your lying ass.

You've got a bad body, get over it. You could be thinner, or work out for a nicer waist. Instead you throw pity parties and make excuses for yourself. Die in a fire.

>>7273507
Not them but okay keep thinking that you know everything about everyone. I'll never believe that you do and it's because you don't.

>>7273476

>>7273441
From the pics you showed, it looks like you are sitting at 35-40% bf, if not higher. So yes, you are fat. Seriously, go to a gym.

>>7273522
Not everyone, just women because they are shallow and easy to read.

>>7273523

>>7273517
I'm standing up STRAIGHT. I'm not sucking anything in.

>>7273526
>all women are shallow and I know this because all women are obviously the same lol
>no woman couldn't be shallow, that's impossible!
Yeah I don't beleive you. Keep talking out your ass, you don't know everyone and I know some really decent and non-shallow girls. You obviously haven't been with "all types of people" like you said.

>>7273508
Pick up the webcam, put it on something higher up. Stand normally, not leaning back, arching your back, pulling back the shoulders or any other posing tricks to try and look skinnier. Both images you posted look like you're trying to look skinny, but it's not working. Don't suck in either, it does no one any favors. Just tighten your stomach muscles to look better, because sucking in is very obvious. You're a healthy size numerically, but you don't have any muscle formation and what looks like bloating from water retention and poor diet.

It's not a lost cause, and part of your problem can be fixed by drinking more water and balancing your diet. As a little aid, try eating more fish, or taking fish oil pills. It tends to make people thirstier and feel fuller faster. That might just be due to the oils coating the intestinal walls making you feel like there's more food being digested than there is, but a working placebo is as good as a cure, if you know what I mean.

>>7273530
>I'm not sucking anything in.
So what's it like having a balloon for a bladder?

>>7272811
>>this is how you cosplay
>>best have no tits, then you are allowed to cosplay and only then.
what.

>>7273507
The attitudes of the people you know don't reflect everyone who may also fall into those molds. Like I said, of all the people I know, it's the exact opposite, but that doesn't mean I just assume all men are sluts that don't care about relationships just because the ones I know personally are. Why is it so hard for most guys on this website to acknowledge that exceptions exist and not all women are a hive mind?

>>7273530
You're a bit skinnyfat, if you worked out it would really help and you actually could look pretty good.

>>7273543
Because exceptions don't exist anywhere where it would affect our lives, so the rule always applies.

>>7273540
It's not a webcam I can move. It's built into my laptop.

>>7273530
Oh really? Then why is your lying ass skinner in one profile shot than the other? You're sucking in, it's obvious. You're just sucking in less in this picture. And look at that big ass ponch! Try eating a salad without a while bottle of dressing and lift something every now and then, fatass!

>>7273550

>>7273553
I don't see what you want my to do. All the objects I could put it on are too high or too low.

>>7273197
I would, but only cuz I like tubbies

>>7273433
>my bones stick out like crazy

lel okie gurl

>>7273546
You can't pick up your laptop? Welp, either way.

Another trick I was taught a while back was to lay down, and then quickly roll over. If you feel water sloshing in your stomach (and you didn't just down a liter of something) your salt content is dangerously high causing maximum water retention.

>>7273549
I bet you yourself are a grade A example of the male gender.

>>7273576
Never said that. This also has nothing to do with me, it's all about you girls; it always is.

>>7273580
>it's all about you girls; it always is
Indeed it is.

>>7273572
I never said I was perfect. I know that I have fat on my body and water retention. Is /fit/ trying to troll me or something?

I'm 5'6" and weigh 98 lbs 30-22-33.

I really want to put ON a few pounds, with the hope I'll get some decent T&A for cosplay. Right now I'm fairly limited to young girls or boys.


>>7273433
I don't see any ribs there at all. You can actually see my ribs between my boobs.

>>7273589
Well, it is 4chan, aka self-righteous assholes galore.

>this thread
>mrw i don't find the society induced "skinny" as attractive
>prefer meat on my women

>>7273592
Are you naturally skinny?

>>7273603
Yes, an it's actually kind of unfortunate.

I've weiighed the same since 16, despite altering my diet a few times.

I have a metabolism of steel.

5"2, 31.5 - 24 - 32.5, and 98 pounds here.
I actually like my chest being kind of flat so I can fit into small clothes and I can even shop at kids stores as long as I can buy a large size kid's shirt or skirt. I do wish my waist was smaller though but I don't know how I could make it smaller because I can't feel any fat on my stomach or sides. Is there a way?
I was going to corset but then I learned the results aren't permanent.
I want to keep my other measurements the same but I want a 21 or 22 inch waist.

>>7273517
>>7273556
Jesus Christ, you are so mad right now for no reason. Yes, the girl is a little overweight. But damn, calm down.

>>7273589
Relax, I'm actually trying to help. You were teased for having a 28in waist - or rather called fat.

These are ways to fix it. 28 inches is average, not skinny at all. You aren't underweight based on body fat percentage. You are being teased for a biologically logical reason. You aren't at peak health. It's not fair or right to tease anyone, but you do have a higher bodyfat percentage. Unreasonably high for your weight, which makes me think you might have been depriving yourself calories, or only maintaining yourself on entirely empty calories causing muscle degradation that left your body storing large areas of fat next to areas where you do not store fat creating a lumpy look. A contrast of feast and famine on the same form.

Start working out, you'll feel a little hungrier but the calories will be used to fill areas of deficit - like your muscles. The vertical and diagonal lines formed on the body by major muscle groups is actually visually slimming - you'll look skinnier by virue of optical illusion, along with possibly being actually skinnier.

>>7273517

>>7273613
>you are so mad right now for no reason
It's /cgl/ what do you expect. Or some judgmental /fit/ard.

>>7273614
Actually, thanks for your help. I've been wanting to get into shape, but I just don't get enough to eat. I eat under 1000 cals a day sometimes. You sound really experienced because you can actually see how I starve most of the time. I'm impressed.

So are we just posting measurements now?

5'8"
120 lbs
32-24-37 (pear/triangle)

But I have little to no muscle definition. Going to try and work on that.

I'm always curious to see what other /cgl/s' measurements are.

>>7273637
Near 5'1, 120lbs, 31-26-39 so pearish. I have average bodyfat, I think, though I am gaining muscle mass from working out (was around 140lbs). Looking to lose more weight, perhaps until 105-110lbs.

>>7273637
I'm almost the same except 31 hips!
How do you manage to get stuff in your size, I'm curious? Like, when you shop for skinny jeans or something, if you get a bigger size on top, do the pant legs look saggy?

>>7273656
Oh forgot: 5'3''
110lbs
No muscle definition

>>7273651
at 5'1, 95lbs or a flat 100 might look good on you. Good job so far, though!

>>7273656
Oh lordy I haven't worn pants in around 2 years. When I did used to get jeans, either the top was too big so I'd have to wear a belt, or the legs being too short.

I know /cgl/ is snarky about weight and shit but this thread is a little more than usual.

>>7273637
5'1.5 (~156cm)
110-115 lbs (50-52 kg)
33.5-26.5-31.5 (85-67-80)

I'm a board. While picture-posting anon was kind of annoying, I'm a little disturbed by people calling her fat. I probably have a higher bmi and am in skinnyfat mode atm, but I would never consider myself actually "fat."

>>7273668
Yeah I figured it'd be like that... Sucks that tailors are pricey, but if you learn how to sew, you can tailor them yourself! There's an idea for a NY resolution, if nothing else.

>>7273631
If you can only stomach 1000 calories, make them count with white protiens and vegtables, along with oats or healthy grains for fullness. I sit at about 1200 calories a day, and I'm 5'6" and about 115. So we are pretty close in terms of height and weight, but I'm a marathon runner. Just for comparison, this is what I look like. I'm 28Bx22x36. My ribs used to stick out like yours, but core training smoothed those lines out for me.

It can be really hard to eat, and I can't imagine actually being able to eat 2000kcal worth of stuff, I usually feel full to the point of sickness at about 1500. If you are hungry, try to eat. If you just aren't, don't force yourself. I got teased for supposedly being anorexic in HS, and I took it to heart, I thought something was genuinely wrong with me. It wasn't until I graduated college and tried out for my first triathlon that I went to a doctor and found out that the 2000kcal system was created on the idea of very active adult males, and that the average woman in the US only needed about 1000 for vital organs to be functioning.

Go to the doctor (assuming obamacare hasn't raped you two ways to Sunday) Ask your bodyfat percentage, see if there's underlying issues keeping you from eating, and then work your way towards being healthy.

>>7273005
Do I see nipple

>>7273669
Most of it is trolling. Admittedly, most of my replies were just to rustle jimmies.

>>7273556
I don't think it's possible for you to project any harder right now. Honestly. Calm down and stop trying so hard.

>>7273670
I'm a bit skinnyfat myself, at the same weight you're at. While I work out, it's really hard to lose the squishy belly at ~100lbs so it's a bit annoying. Also my stomach muscles atrophied and it hurts a lot when I do situps.

>>7273254
she's probably way taller than you dumbfuck
why does a 5'11' model with a 24 inch waist look much thinner than a 4'11' midget with a 24 inch waist

>>7273462
pro ana pls go

>>7273677
Wow! You look great! Thanks for all your help! Hopefully I'll get a 22 inch waist like you someday! I can only dream lol

>>7273693
Not even that anon, but hipbones are normal?

>>7273685
Ageed. I've only ever had somewhat visible abs once in my life, and I was exercising 2-3 hours a day (mostly cardio and strength training). I was a muscly 100-105 at the time, and even then my waist was only 25.5, as well.

>>7273693
Seriously? I'm skinnyfat and I have hip bones and ribs showing a little. It's fine.

>>7273677
> I got teased for supposedly being anorexic in HS, and I took it to heart, I thought something was genuinely wrong with me.

I feel you, so hard. Even the teachers.

It destroyed my self confidence, and even after two years of my lovely BF telling me that I'm fine, and he likes me as I am, I still get really self conscious, especially about my knees. I won't even wear a skirt or dress without tights because of my fucking knees.

I have a nice tummy thanks to years of majorette, but other than that I'm really just... skin and bone. I can't even lift, because I have shoulder problems that need operated on that I'm too poor to pay for.

>>7273702
Edit: I also eat 3000-4000 calories in an average day, but nothing fucking happens.

>>7273701
Oh I never even had that. I'm a figure skater and despite training every day I still have a squishy stomach. God dammit. The only thing that changed is that now I have massive thunder thighs I could choke a gorilla with.

>>7273696
You might, your hips looked very wide and your ribs pretty small. Once you get a little healthier, I think it's possible. You look a little more pear shaped, though. Nicer hips. Just don't get discouraged by a number. 22 looks like that on me, but it could look like >>7273233 on you. Just try your best, and stop when you feel healthiest and happiest. I'd love to have a thigh gap with my ankles together (not that my knees would allow that), but it's not going to happen. I'd feel sick from undernourishment and real anorexia, and likely would look more skelator everywhere else. I had to make myself okay with how I am, and something like that may end up being a reality for you, too.

Just stop when you've balanced health with fitness and looks. I'd hate to think I'd encouraged someone to hurt themselves for impossible or unhealthy goals.

>>7273704
You look fine, anon. I do notice that one of your shoulders is higher than the other, though, so there's that.
I was called a skeleton as a kid too, but I lived in a shitty village in Eastern Europe in the flatlands, so if you weren't a pudgy babushka with rosy cheeks you were 'emaciated'. Always thought it was different for people in the West, damn.

>>7273704
If it makes you feel any better millions of people would die for this kind of metabolism.
Not trying to be condescending, but just something on the positive side. Clothes will always look better on your body than girls who are a little chubby and you have a ton more options. As long as you're healthy you should embrace this situation.

>>7273677
>the 2000kcal system was created on the idea of very active adult males, and that the average woman in the US only needed about 1000
More people need to know this. I know a lot of women set 2000 as a goal because it's on the side of all food packaging, and then wonder why they keep gaining weight. Or they pixyteri it and assume that going lower is starving yourself because it says so right on the box of Hot Pockets.

>>7273702
>>7273718 again, one more thing to add speaking as someone between normal and chubby (5'4" 130 pounds before anyone call fatty) your boobs are both bigger and perkier than mine. So, there's also that.

>>7273714
Ah, the shoulder thing is probably because of that issue I've got.

My muscles are all really loose, so my joints (shoulders especially) like to shift around and pop partially out of the sockets whenever they feel like it. I closed at work today so one of them is probably not sitting properly. It's hella painful.

Thank you, though!

>>7273718
I guess while all the bigger girls wished they looked like me, I was wishing I looked like them!

I do love the look of too-big shirts though, so I guess I'm lucky? It's just fucking impossible to find pants that fit me. I wear almost exclusively skirts, because any pants that fit in the waist are way too short, and any that fit in the length are fucking huge. Kohl's is the only place I can find pants, and they're $40+ per pair.

>>7273729
Wowza, really? I'm sorry, anon.

>>7273702
I know the feels. I only got over the feeling after having a doctor personally check me out and tell me that I was in peak physical condition, and that sometimes bodies had different needs and could be different sizes. Of course, this was with my travelers insurance while I was in Portugal (I'm Portuguese ethnically) so they would know native body types better than the overly general, "safe" classes that America uses. In America, the doctor told me to put on weight. I asked him to check my bodyfat % to see if I suddenly changed compositions somehow. I was still at 17.7

He still told me to put on weight. If I look healthy, have perfect health, perfect body fat percent, perfect blood sugar, heart rate and everything else, why would I arbitrarily need to gain weight? I asked. All he said was I might get bigger boobs. I noped right out of the doctors office (with a $2000+ bill? For doing a simple checkup/scalper check? Thanks America...)

I can't really say anything about your shoulder problems, but things like swimming, assuming you have that range of motion, can be easy on joints. Even using your hands to move bathwater is a nice, light exercise for damaged shoulders. As for your knees, what's off about them? I can't tell what you're talking about? Is it darkness or something? Exfoliating often can lighten them up. But if I honestly can't tell what's wrong with them, chances are there's nothing wrong at all.

Hahaha too afraid to post measurements because compared to the people who have posted, I'm tubby, which is crazy, because I never really considered myself as such before.

I am aware of this and plan to make a conscious effort to fix it, a slowing metabolism and a poor diet's finally biting me in the jiggly ass.

>32 inch waist and an apple shape
feels bad man, every time i lose weight i lose it everywhere but my waist, no matter what I do.

Sorry for posting this as an original thread, misfire, deleted now.
Anyway, question:
"Uh, I have a bit of a problem
My ass sticks out too much. People assume I have a big ass, but it's not that, at the end my spine curves back and my pelvis is sort of pulled in while the rest of my torso sticks out, pic related. It also gives me this annoying belly pooch and I look like a fucking duck, even my mom makes fun of me.
What do? Is this normal, are there any exercises for it?

Sorry for the shitty ms paint sketch, I moved house and still need to get a full-length mirror."

>>7273709
This is going to sound crazy, anon, but do some stomach vacuums and try to pull your stomach in as much as possible throughout the day, sort of like sucking in but more along the lines of tightening your stomach muscles.
It might really help.

>>7273704
I'm jelly (quite literally).
I eat under 1200 a day and usually exercise 3x per week and still manage to only maintain. My BMR is so fucked.

>>7273749
Sounds like lordosis. See a doctor about it maybe? /fit/ might have better advice.

>>7273755
Not that anon but... stomach... vacuums? I sorta get the idea though the name made me laugh. Is it a contraction of the diaphragm, kinda? Because I play the flute and I noticed my stomach has been getting harder from it...

>>7273720
Most people are either taught nothing, or had a one week long session on it in their high school health class. What little is taught is either just the 2000 method, or the Men 2500 Women 2000, which is very, very high calorie for anyone. Proatheletes eat 2500 to 4000 for the largest of large men. These are 6', massive, bulking, working out every day, hard-sporting, extremely active men. That's so far beyond the average scope that it's comedic. The average adult male can barely run a 7 minute mile, 8 for women, and has about 30 minutes at a gym once a week. When adjusting for mental stimulation, the average college student with a gym-type class burns about 1600 for a man and 1400 for a woman. Mental exercise burns a lot of calories - a student on break can need almost 200 to 400 calories less than the not on break student.

And once you stop growing anything (after wisdom teeth, ~19-25 y/o) your caloric needs drop again, usually by 100-200 calories. It's like background processes that are no longer running, so the hardware runs cooler and needs less energy for the fans/cooling system.

>>7273749
It's a saddleback/swayback/lordosis. There's exercises to fix it, but some people actually find it hot if it's not too extreme, as I've been told.

>>7273761
Yeah, it sounds ridiculous, but it really works.
I've been doing it unknowingly since I was a kid (it was my cool/creepy trick when I was little), and even when I was legitimately chubby, I've always had a tighter midsection.

>>7273742
Sorry,the pic is kinda shitty with my knees. They're knobly as fuck. There's next to no fat at all around my joints.

It's kind of hard to get in a photo, but it's a lot worse up close and personal.

>>7273764
Nursefag here. You're under on your estimates, it's closer to 1700-1900 for women and 2100-2300 for men. It stays pretty stable until about your 50s (excepting pregnant/breastfeeding women), and drops thereafter.

>>7273776
Kiddo, that's just a normal knee. They're "knobby as fuck" if there's no fat padding - which there isn't on most thin, healthy people. Don't stress about it. They look proportionate for your body, and aren't dark or have a patch of fat/extra skin underneath like some people get. They're even kind of pretty, for knees that is. Do you look at a lot of Asian models? I see this knee obsession a lot with people who stare at the desu models too much. Small bone frames and high amounts of evenly dispersed subcutaneous fat helps Asians look plush even at tiny sizes. And photochop. Lots of photochop.

>>7273788
You're an American nurse, aren't you? America teaches their medical professionals very skewed information. Everything from prescribing tons of pills over common, proven remedies and to vastly overestimate calories and especially animal fats needed.

Considering Switzerland, France, Sweden and Austria all have great heath as countries and they all project much, much lower than America while being much more active peoples, I'm more inclined to believe them. America uses as much as possible to persuade their populace to buy more. That, and they assume that there is a relatively high amount of physical activity when there just isn't. There's are tons of people who only walk the distance between bed and car, and not much else. It's not that you're wrong, just that America really pushes false information. Things like Milk being healthy (it's not, for it's Calcium to calorie content) and especially beef (which is inferior to poultry in every way except perhaps taste). The US has always been money before the people.

>>7273788
>>7273802
In b4 /pol/

>>7273805
Not /pol/, I live in the Nordics and here we're taught that reindeer, chicken, fish, mutton > beef.
And our daily calorie suggestion is about 1200 to 1300kcal, so I think what that anon says is true.

>>7273755
This is going to sound weird, but if you're exercising several times per week and eating under 1200 you might actually need to eat more (healthy) calories. What can happen if you go too low is your body will go into starvation mode to try to prevent you from losing any more weight (thus fucking up weight loss goals). Try bringing up your cals a bit and see if that helps. Like I said, it sounds crazy, but it's basically the same thing that happens to the bodies of people with anorexia.

>>7273360
The quote chain wasn't talking about Yoko, it was talking about that Ryuko concept art.

She's both incredibly slim and has a waist the size of her thighs. You can have a high waist/hip ratio, but having the exact proportions for Ryuko would be unrealistic or extremely rare because you'd have to be very thin, have a high w/h ratio, and have a waist the same circumference as your thighs.

Not even >>7273677 or >>7273462 have perfect Ryuko proportions according to >>7272852 and pic related. Her proportions are impossible.

>>7273820
I had anorexia, actually. I've never been able to get my BMR back up to what it once was, and my 1200 calorie diet is actually dietitian approved.
I definitely do eat more than that ~3-4x/month (usually when my bf decides he's going to cook), and I've tried everything to reset or jumpstart my metabolism over the years with no success.
I'm mostly okay with only eating this much, as it's a lot of food really, but it sucks when I feel like no matter what I do I don't look any different.

>>7273852
Ah, I'm sorry to hear about that. In that case, never mind. Definitely go with what your doctor said of course. I hope you're able to get it back to normal. In terms of fitness though, have you tried weightlifting? I've gotten amazing results that I've never been able to see with cardio. It actually helps with your metabolism too.

>>7273845
*cough*
actually it is technically feasible with corsetting/waist training

>>7273875
Yeah, it's what I do now. I usually run/hike in the morning and do (fairly light, still a weakling) weight lifting and strength training exercises in the evening 2-3x/week. Maybe it will be more effective once I can actually lift?

>>7273253
definition of skinny fat

>>7273888
Just make sure you're pushing yourself hard enough with the weights (without actually injuring yourself). It's pretty easy to plateau, and then the benefits are less. No need to increase how often you do it though, more than 3-4 times a week and your body doesn't have enough time to repair itself in between workouts. The book The New Rules of Lifting for Women by Lou Schuler is pretty awesome and gives loads of diet and weightlifting help and advice.

>>7273888
Weights are awesome. Bodyweight stuff is pretty good too, I'd do a mix of both. It's always satisfying when you can bust out a one legged squat or a few full chin ups

>>7273893
that isnt even skinny fat that is just straight up tubby

>>7273899
>that
>tubby
She has a small pouch at best.

>all the delicious bodies in this thread

>>7273925
keep telling yourself that

>>7273925
dont you mean at worst?

lel
so youre saying she is shit?
thanks anon

>>7273881
The results of corset/waist training aren't and can't be permanant unless you've been doing it since you were young.

big breasted anime girls are the go-to cosplay characters for all the chubby girls who have big boobs because they're fat. they always think no one will notice they're actually obese because hey, big boobs

>>7273530
>im not sucking in

The doughy, flabby, skinnyfat look can easily be remedied with proper exercise. Anorexic girls often look shit with mini bingo wings and pot bellies because their muscles have wasted away. If you actually lifted your appetite would also increase. Provided you eat proper food rather than chocolate and cola you will also be so much healthier.

Girls hardly have to do anything to get a nice body (compared to what is expected of men) so stop being lazy.

>>7274246
Pro-tip: Men aren't "expected" to be anything but not fat and not hungry skeleton mode.
Stop thinking you need to look like Zyzz to get a girlfriend, that's not how reality works.

>>7274263
>lifting for girls

>>7274265
>implying /fit/ doesn't lift for girls

>>7274246
Women typically hate buff/macho meat heads and gym rats. You're creating unreasonable goals for yourself t o compete with men, just like women create unreasonable goals for themselves to compete with women.

Men have it easier. The average active guy is fit enough for most women. Just like women, men just have to keep bodyfat down, regardless of muscle mass. Men do not put on fat as easily as women, and they primarily gain fat around the stomach. For a woman, she has to balance the fat on her hips with the fat in her boobs and the fat on her stomach. If she loses weight but it all comes off her tits and hips, she's fucked. A guy can always lose weight and look better for the most part.

The only women who seem to like the meathead look are the crazies who suck MTV tits, watch jersey shore and think celebrity lives matter.

>>7274246
>mini bingo wings

>posts picture of Saber having tiny little arms she could barely use to LIFT Excalibur, much less fight with it.

>>7274270
>>7274277
Yes let's all give up and not try to improve ourselves. Using terms like "meathead" will help us to rationalise our beta attitude.

>>7274287
>Lets ignore any and all points made because there was an insult I didn't like!

>>7274287
>m-muh self improvement!
No one is saying you should "give up", just stop thinking anyone but you and you alone is expecting any of this shit or really wants it, faggot.
It's like you're trying to project your own unrealistic ideas on the entire world so you can adopt a victim complex and pretend you're not just pushing yourself for no real reason.

>>7273530
Ok, ultimate proof you're not sucking in?
Stand in the same positions as all these photos you posted, and /actually/ suck in for us.
If you still can.

>>7273433
I'm your same height and waist measurements, but I weigh fifteen pounds more...
What happened?

>>7274759
You carry your weight somewhere else, or you have more muscle/higher bone density combo.

>>7273750
Maybe you have an unchecked allergy, like one to gluten or dairy. I have a friend who recently found out she was mildly allergic to gluten, and once she stopped eating it, the weight just fell off. Try changing up your diet or going to the doctor for an allergy test, especially if you have a ruddy complexion.

>>7274763
Yeah, I guess. I have a fairly small waist-to-hip ratio (I think, feel free to correct me here) at around .71 or .72. Maybe I'm carrying more at my hips and bust.

>>7273704
>I also eat 3000-4000 calories in an average day, but nothing fucking happens.

No you don't. That is not physically possible. Fuck, why do girls say such retarded shit about fitness?

>>7274966
>not physically possible
Are you retarded?
One - what do you think the caloric intake of an obese person is
Two - I eat 1600+ calories at Quizno's. It's not even a full meal. Add two more meals to that.

Fucking faggot.

>>7274966
Uh.
>>7274969

I work fast food, and I work almost every day, and eat there most times I work (free food, yay.)

My favorite sandwich is 1000+ calories on its own. If I work eight hours, I'll eat two of those. Plus fries. Plus drinks. Plus an occasional piece of cake or pie (another 450 or so calories for one of those) and that's just while I'm at work. Then I come home (because my metabolism is so fast, I eat every two to three hours while I'm awake, plus I'm a bored eater) and take in another 1000-2000.

I track it carefully, because I thought that's why I didn't gain weight, I thought I was just not eating enough.

My average day is ~3200, but sometimes I'll get up to 4500 in a day.

>>7275004
You're not eating the right kind of calories and you're eating schedule is broke as fuck.

5 small meals = weight loss
2 reg meals = weight gain

>>7275004
>My favorite sandwich is 1000+ calories on its own. If I work eight hours, I'll eat two of those
You're going to have a heart attack before you hit menopause, Jesus H Christ.

>>7274966
You sound fat

>>7274966
It's possible. I can still eat a crapton without gaining as much weight as should be expected for the amount I eat - but it's also hard for me to lose weight without strict calorie counting and a lot of high-intensity exercise. I did a calorie count for a week in university as a curiosity, and my average was about 3000-3500/day. I was living in a hall at the time, so all meals were provided ie. cooked breakfast, lunch (and if you didn't like the lunch option, toasted sandwiches) and dinner + dessert. I weighed about 49-50kg and stayed that way all year.

OPs picture is disgusting

>>7273197
Did you go to Megacon by chance? I forget if it was 2013 or 2012 but some chubby Yoko kept posting herself in the Megacon threads, and then said her boyfriend would beat up anyone who talked shit on her.

She was a real classy ho. No wonder she took pride in her breasts, she had nothing else redeeming.

>>7273776
There ain't nothin' wrong with your knees honey...

>>7272789
how about 35 29 42
does that just make me "curvy" or
I'm obviously not skinny but appearance wise I have never been called fat or tubby so I don't know though i do want to work out more to improve my fitness

>>7275524
I have the same measurements and I consider myself chubby. It's still "normal" to some people but you prob could use more exercise.

>>7273761

Pic related is what she is talking about.

It's a legit exercise

>>7275980
He looks... like a papier mache person.

>>7273530
thin with belly fat hanging there
I look the same and I really feel fat and bad about hanging fat there, no matter how much excercise I do the fat doesn't want to go

>>7275980
That is the most terrifying example of man I have ever seen in my entire life.

>>7273253
literally absolutely nothing

>>7276171
What are you eating? The nutrition in your diet - not just the calories - is also important.

>>7273449
didnt she just say shes underweight, isnt that unhealthy? how is that perfect?
i mean she looks just fine but personally i think health is p important

>>7277074
well, my diet is mostly chicken. Am I suppose to eat something specifically to reduce my belly fat? I just try to eat "healty" and not junk food

>>7276221
I was the anon who mentioned stomach vacuums to begin with, and let me tell you that the exercise alone used to terrify all of my childhood friends. It's a great party trick, if you're 6-12 years old.

>>7277085
dont eat foods high in carbohydrates. forget the pasta, rice, bread

>>7273441
>>7273477
lmao fat as fuck your bones arent even showing.
go lift some before you say shit.

>>7272823
Actually the girl in the OP picture lives in my country and I've seen her at the con she wore that. She was gorgeous but I didn't take a photo because I was in a hurry the moment I saw her.

>>7273614
>. Unreasonably high for your weight, which makes me think you might have been depriving yourself calories, or only maintaining yourself on entirely empty calories causing muscle degradation that left your body storing large areas of fat next to areas where you do not store fat creating a lumpy look. A contrast of feast and famine on the same form.

This is all over my arms from when I experienced muscle degradation as a teenager. Is lifting actually going to get rid of this? My arms are flabby and disgusting because of this, and while I'm not crazy thin I'm not overweight (5' 6", 110lbs).

Thank you for reminding me yet again how angry, bitchy and shitty the cosplay community is /cgl/

>>7277209
Yes. Developing the muscle in your arms will make them less flabby. Even if you are underweight you can still have a high body fat percentage, and given that you're tallish for your weight yet are still complaining of flab, this is probably the case for you. Obviously you will have to give it some time - at least a month or two to start seeing any results. If you don't have access to a gym, tricep dips/press-up variations to target biceps/triceps are your best bodyweight exercises. I would start with sets of 10 and increase to sets of 20 with harder variations, e.g. if you can only do tricep dips with bent knees then working towards doing them with straight legs, if you can only do pressups against the wall working towards getting on the ground/off your knees. If you have access to a gym or even dumbbells, you can vary the exercises a lot more.

>>7272918
This. I'm 32-23(Give or take an inch)-43
I straight up look like an hour glass.

>>7277245
People get fucking weird when it comes to weight/fitness.

>>7275030
It's actually one of the least awful sandwiches on the menu. It's just turkey, ranch, cheddar, lettuce, and onion with bacon. I'm just always still hungry when I finish so I double it up.

>I work at Arby's
>Internal fatty

Most of the food there actually makes me ill, I can only eat the turkey anymore because the roast beef incapacitates me for the entire day.

>>7272918
You can't change your build, I will never naturally have a 24 inch waist because I'm straight up and down like a column in the torso. Doesn't mean that people with those measurements are anorexic or must have a corset, but eating well and exercising won't make your ribcage smaller/a different shape. You're as bad as the people you're bitching about.

>>7273005
Her boobs are squished together so hard in an attempt to make them look bigger. It looks painful.

>>7277275
>32-23-43
Muh dick. God do I love huge hips with a tiny waist. Can you post pics? I wanna see!!

>>7275016
Anon is saying they eat two regular meals + additional smaller meals and don't gain weight. What point are you trying to make here in regards to her?

Don't listen to anyone in this threads "dietary advice". They don't look bad, but you're better off getting help with your diet from a professional. Looking good doesn't always mean you're healthy.

>>7277137
so I have to become a bunny. I'll try anon, I'll really try not to eat those things (i love all those)

>>7273249
>small tits never sag, ever.
This is not true. I've seen saggy small ones

>>7277275

I want to see too, straight female but I'm just legitimately curious. That is an EXTREME difference...

I'm 35-24-36 at 118 lb. and 5'4". I personally find staying hydrated is key to keeping a tight waistline. If I cut back on water I definitely notice an inch difference.

Look, only a doctor can really tell you how much body fat you have. Here, people don't take bone mass into account. I recovered from an eating disorder 4 years ago; regardless at 90 lbs. I leveled out and even stopped menstruating I lost so much fat. My bust size decreased; however, my hips never got smaller then 34 nor did my waist more then an inch to 23. The fact is, sometimes we can't decrease our hips and waist.

Just be healthy everyone, stop trying to be the same, small size... eat well. And yes, 1700 calories is a ton! We shouldn't make ourselves eat just because we feel 'we're suppose to eat more'. That estimate is only for a really active individual.

You can use a BMI calculator but only a doctor or specialist can really test you.

Also, on the subject of 'belly fat'... don't go the anorexic/bulimic route because then you end up with an abdominal hernia and your innards stick out all funny... it doesn't go away when you get well either.

I use to have really strong abs which made my stomach flat... now I have to constantly do light exercise and I push to hard I can really hurt myself. So please, don't, you might end up with a tummy worse then you intended.

tldr: anorexia and bulimia can cause abdominal hernias that don't fix themselves easily.

A normal, majestic dude.

5'6" seems a bit under the line to me. I'm 5'3" and I weigh that much...
Maybe you also need to eat healthier and gain a bit of weight? Sagging arms and guts often happen to people who are underweight due to EDs

But the cunts ITT are practically promoting eating disorders. Just look at what they did to that girl who posted her pics!

47-34-45 here, but I'm a dude. Guys can have huge differences though, Arnold Schwarzenegger was 57-33-55 in his prime.

mmm this is what I wished my stomach looked like, so pretty

Oh my god this is my body as well.
I feel so self-conscious of it through being homeless and binge eating while I can to being in a stable home where I have food but can't find the energy to eat much or make good food.
It's hard man. I gain weight in the strangest places.

Or maybe people could just wearing costumes of characters they like regardless of what they're naturally gifted with

interesting thread that caught my eye. cause yknow tits.

personally, I believe in moderation. after working with a local breast clinic and seeing all sorts of of variety, pathology, and mastectomies, I will say this - everything in moderation. There isn't any better or worse between big or small, but everything in moderation is best.
