/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Started this mostly because I'm frustrated with my "violin hips" or whatever they're called. This isn't me but basically what I have. I've lost a ton of weight and have been looking forward to doing less frumpy cosplay but hip bones are shaped in this dumb way that makes it look like I'm muffining even though there's no chub there.

>>8221254
My body type isn't really meant for cosplaying or lolita.
I have an hour glass figure, I'm short, and pretty darn chubby. Not so fatty chan I could be a ham beast, but definitely not skinny enough to pull off half of these fashion. If I lost about 30-40 lbs, I'd probably be perfect.

>>8221259
I have this too mang. I thought it was the standard until recently.

I look most like Usagi, I guess I'm pear-shaped? It doesn't limit me in any way, I'm pretty tiny with a BMI that fluctuates between 18 and 19, so Jfashion usually fits me very well. I have plans to start running soon to tone up though, because I'm sorta skinnyfat.

>>8221254
>drawing neptune fat

this is trash

Slightly pear shaped with wide shoulders

Short torso though so I look stumpy as fuck despite being 5'8 and like 115

>>8221259
I have it, too. You're not alone.

>>8221254

>tfw youre not any of these body types

>>8221276
This

>>8221259
I actually find hips like yours very attractive, I myself have no curves at all when looking from front/behind. Tits and ass go just front and behind.

>>8221254
>really fucking tall
>hourglass shape
>waist too small for small sizes
>bust too big for larger sizes
>look frumpy in anything that isn't tailored
>sleeves are too short
>pants are too short
>waist is too high in shirts
>underweight plus skinny fat?
I look awesome as handsome bishoujos and bishounens because I'm lanky as shit but lolita is a struggle for me. Thankfully, I'm still young and slim and can fit into most things.

I'm super short. Thin, super small waist with larger hips/butt, but still a small bust

This thread is destined to become a parade of body dysmorphia.

>>8221254
I'm Venus to a T.

>small waist
>small but big bust (if that even makes any sense)
>annoyingly large butt and thighs
>slim calves and forearms

So basically lolita is pretty damn flattering as it hides all the bad bits and shows the good bits, however I look pretty shit in anything other than lolita as a result, especially anything form fitting as my hips do this annoying shelf thing

I'm a 5'8 skinnyfat guy. Broad shoulders, thick chest, but narrow stomach and hips.

I typically cosplay as stuff that doesn't involve stuff being fitted, because my proportions are weird as fuck.

Plus if I'm cosplaying as a tall character, I need to wear lifts.

>36-27-34
>skinny-fat
>broad shoulders
>big biceps

I want to cosplay and look nice and accurate, but FUCK my manly arms..

>>8221323
it me. At least for cosplay, I have enough boob to get the perfect hourglass look. However everything has to be wrapped in spanx, control tights and a corset so it doesn't jiggle.

32-24-36 ive been out of brasil long enough to despise the gigantic brasilian ass come on son what the fuck. I know this may sound unusual but I am so jealous of girls with slim hips. They look so willowy and graceful.

>>8221347
also i know its petty but so damn jealous of american chicks with gigantic tits. my entire adolescence was spent listening to my american friends complain about how hard it was having big boobs when i only wish i had boobs like that.

>>8221259

Pretty much anyone who isn't a fat ass has this it's really just the way the pelvis is. You can get it fixed with liposuction, but it's expensive.

Honestly I'm pretty chubby and I know I need to lose weight, but I'm balls deep in college and I really just dont have time. Over the summer I'm going to really focus on working out and eating well so I can start losing weight.

As far as cosplay, yeah, I cosplay characters that don't fit my body type, but I'm not doing anything revealing or super tight or anything. I know how to dress for my size and what kinds of outfits make me look good. And I know it's cheesy but I do cosplay for myself. Cosplaying makes me happy and being a little overweight isnt going to stop me.

There was one /fit/ had that was more where body fat spreads and gathers so to speak.

We need that posted it was actually really varied.

>>8221259
Waist training would fix this.

>>8221356
Lipo? It's about bone structure so there's nothing to take away. Unless you mean injecting fat into the space to fill it out.

Only thing that makes sense in my head is bulk up the muscles in the area like the gluteus medius and tansor fasciae latae. Side leg lifts maybe?

>>8221254
5'3, 190
40-34-49 iirc. I'm pear shaped. Gained weight over our long winter but meh. As far as cosplaying goes I've never held the desire to cosplay skimpy characters and I tend to like characters who dress with poofy skirts and wear long sleeves.

I don't really think finding cosplays that can be adapted to my body type is a gigantic issue anymore. Animators are extremely less conservative about drawing a singular 'type' anymore and there's a variety of marshmallow characters to choose from, especially in western cartoons. Pic related, was going to make the bf wear a Puppycat gijinka.

I feel more sorry for guys though. Seems like their choices bounce between extremes.

>>8221381
Tensor fascia latae is a band of fascia... You cannot add hypertrophy to fascia.

Oh honey, you knew you weren't getting away with that lol

>>8221414
I worked out a lot over the past two years.
I used to weigh upwards of 240. I had been active all my life (cross country, lifeguarding) but I had, and still kind of have, binge eating issues.
>>8221415
Yeah I know. Should've inb4'd

5'4 150lbs
37" Bust
27" waist 22" in a corset
45" hip
24" thigh

Going to the gym 4 hours a week, pretty okay with how I look, just working on toning up my thighs and arms.

>>8221381
That's exactly what I mean. You can get what essentially amounts to a Brazilian butt lift and ask to have the dips smoothed out. They take fat from another part of your body and use it to shape your butt/hips. But yes obviously the cause of the issue is bone structure which cannot be "fixed"

>>8221410
Keep telling yourself that. They all think you're disgusting too but they're too tactful to say it to your face. Cgl doesn't have the same qualms. Lose the weight so you can actually feel good about yourself.

>>8221438
What crawled up your salty cooch and died? Chill.

5'3", ~120 lbs, 33-27-35. I fit into most lolita things, but then brand clothes are pretty forgiving and hide most of my skinnyfat. I just want to be fit again so I don't need lolita to hide my flabby thighs.

>>8221438
>They all think you're disgusting too but they're too tactful to say it to your face.
Nah, you probably shouldn't project this much.

Tall-ish with a long torso and broad shoulders makes looking cute in Jfash a struggle.

Wide hips and dem thighs = ideal for a lot of western media cosplay, but I have small-ish breasts. And I feel my thighs are too thick to look cute in most anime cosplay.

>>8221276
First thing I thought.

5'7'', 142lbs 37-28-37
I gained a lot of weight after starting a desk job. Trying to slim down my waist, but just got injured recently, hoping that wont slow my progress of losing weight.

>>8221353
Imagine being American and not getting any of those traits big titted American girls complain about. Same boat as you, just minus any "exotic" bullshit I could possibly play off as desirable. Oh well.

>>8221394
I'm 5'3 and 190lbs too
its like "meh". I'm fine with who I am. I remember being 140 and still hating myself.
My visual perception of myself is unlikely to change, so my attitude did
Although if I could go back, I'd probably stay at 145, it was a nice weight.

>>8221276
fuck, are you me?
first thing I thought was that Neptune is god-tier ottermode

>>8221460
I'd honestly like to be at 130-140ish. Seems like a pretty neutral weight to be at. Hopefully when my grad work is over and I have more consistency at my job I can plan my workout routines better to reach that goal. You're right about attitude though, a friend of mine attends therapy and she weighs about 110, when she used to weight 180ish, because she still struggles with her image issues.

I have the smallest frame on the planet and an hourglass shape so I can pull off most female characters and can fit into brand without any problem. It's pretty nice, my only complaint would be that I can't pull of guys or younger characters because my thighs and hips are impossible to hide well and it looks ridiculous.

>>8221470
I becomes hard to care about something you really dont care about, if that makes sense?
Like, it the grand scheme of things, I really dont care about my weight, at least not like people portray.
I'd be fine with 145 though, I remember wearing medium everything was easy. Easy to find clothes, my boobs could fill out everything. It was nice.

>>8221254
99.6 lb, 5'

I have an okay body I guess. I'm very petite and can fit in a lot of children's clothing (back in my weeb days I would go to goodwills and buy tutus made for toddlers and sew them together to make a makeshift petticoat.) but you see I'm part disgusting wetback/native american so I'm very hairy and have to shave constantly and my skin is a yellow looking color. That and I sweat a lot and when I sweat I smell..

>I can't ever eat anything smelly ex onions bc the next day I will absolutely reek of it. Anything I eat I will smell like so eating something sweet or coffee = good but things like curry and union I have to stay away from
>I rlly like unions though ;__;

> my cum will taste like coffee and smell like it if I drink it before hand


Well off that disgusting note I'm pretty active and fit and my eyes are slightly slanted and I've been mistaken for being Eastern/Central asian a couple times due to that and my yellowish skin. Too bad I was given a native american nose bc shit aint kawaii ;__;

Just gonna post it because why the fuck not.

Im in the boat with large thighs, larger upper arms, bit of a chubby stomach. It sometimes does limit my cosplay because unless I wear a skirt I just don't exactly feel too pretty? I dont like my thighs at all and I get antsy when I wear shirts. Ive tried all I can with triathlon, elliptical, weights.. Everything. Those two places just WONT lose that fat.

This has limited my cosplays to things with long sleeves and either the legs completely covered [pants/dress] or wearing skirts. Or kigurumi. I have broader shoulders too compared to most girls.

I take after my dad's muscle build [minus the height] and he's a body builder. : | Im not though. Clearly.

>>8221505

>>just minus any "exotic" bullshit I could possibly play off as desirable.

My sister, I hear you. Too yellow to pass off as a porcelain beauty, too pale to pass off as an exotic hottie. I have legit had people argue with me that I'm not a ~real Brasilian because I don't look like a ~real Brasilian. Funny when Americans do it, stings when Brasilians do it :(

Current:

37-27-38

I used to weigh 246 but have lost 98 pounds over the last 2 yrs by eating better and walking. Almost at 100 and looking to go down to about 130.

As for my body limiting my lolita and cosplay choices when I was bigger I never considered lolita because there was no way brand would ever fit me. Not sure if I could no with my current measurements. Still might be too fat. And for cosplay my larger size just made me pick costumes that was covered and as flattering to my figure as it could be on a fatty. I didnt necessarily limit myself to only fat characters but did stick to garments with more structure I could add boning too or cover my arms, legs and gut. Now however because of stretch marks left behind from being a fatty chan I dont think I would ever attempt showing off my belly but more options have opened up that I would have never felt comfortable doing before.

156cm (5'1.5") / 50-51kg (110-113)
85(70 underbust)-68-79 /~33(27-28 under)-27-31
I am honestly built like a wide board with boobs. I have really broad shoulders/a broad back, and my thighs/legs in general are kindof big, both from fat and from muscles I developed from being an athlete from like age 11 to 18. I carry very little fat on my stomach or hips but get chubby in my limbs and lower back. Basically I'm a rather squat person.
I can fit into most brand with little issue, but it sometimes looks weird because my waist isn't defined. I also feel self conscious about how wide my back looks at meets/in photos, as silly as that sounds. Finding blouses that fit me in both shoulders and bust/waist can also be a bit difficult.
I like that lolita hides my thighs, back chub, and lack of ass, though.
I'd like to start working out again and lose weight/a few cms, mostly to feel healthier and better about my appearance.

>>8221508
>thread about bodies

Get your head out of your ass, anon.

>>8221254
Why does everyone always make neptune fat?

>>8221534
I was wondering that too. She doesn't have huge hops like that.

>>8221529
I'm the 190 fattie from earlier and even when I was over 200 there were dresses that fit me.
Just make sure you're looking for full back shirring or full shirring when it comes to dresses and skirts. Jumperskirt/bolero combos will be your friend.
Angelic Pretty, Chantilly, Haenuli, and some Meta have been very good about offering dresses that could accommodate for larger sizes, and you'd fit well within most of their measurements.

You've lost a lot of weight, it's time to reward yourself.

>>8221539
Thanks for the info anon! Definitely something I can look into now. It would be lovely to get at least one or two nice coord I could wear with my friends when they go out for tea.

With you on the smell issue, anon. I sweat a ton, and even though it normally doesn't smell at all really, if I eat onions, garlic, certain spices, etc. I will literally smell like an Indian man who hasn't bathed in a few days.

For those trying to lose weight look into a low carb diet. I've done it on and off for the last year and lost 20 lbs the first time and 10 the second and now I'm on my third before summer hits. I'm better at cooking for myself now then when I started, but for fast food and having a social life it can be tough. Luckily Jack in the Box doesn't even blink when you ask for 4 eggs scrambled or a burger with no bun (in a bowl) at 1am. I find it easier than counting calroies and after a little while I stop craving carbs, it's awesome.

>>8221555
Another tip for people not wanting to go on a low carb diet, get the app MyFitnessPal. It helps me a lot. It scans barcodes of things you eat, has all restaurants, etc. Itll tell you, after you sign up for the app, what your daily intake should be as you lose weight, so you are always on track to the goal you set.

I found this so much easier and really put what I ate into perspective. Even lets me input when I go to the gym and it deducts calories based on what you do. I haven't touched fast food in 4 months and this app helps me a ton.

>>8221254

If I liked chicks I would love this body type most.
It's cute and soft and pretty.
You can dress it really well too if you pick good pieces.

>>8221555
>>8221568
To go with these posts, I suggest taking a multivitamin daily. Without doing anything else special (save for drinking more water) I've dropped 15 lbs since August.

>>8221254
I'm somewhere between pear and hourglass, 154cm, 55kg, 80-66-98. I can pull of the kind-of-chubby moe anime girls pretty well, but I think that I'll look better after shedding a bit more weight. I do like my body shape, but it kind of gets in the way when I want to crossplay.

> damn hips

>>8221593
thems be some tragic tits tho

Inverted Triangle. Short and a bit stocky. Somewhere between pudgey and muscley as fuck (built fat). Don't look particularly big compared to other people. By myself I look pretty big but in group photos I look fairly small in comparison. Tiny muscle legs pudgey stomach. I have a large bust measurement because of wide ribcage and just being busty. Hi boobloaf. Causes so many issues in lolita. Also short torso, not much room between hips and ribs, so anything smaller than a 28" waist is out of the question and I will probably have abs showing by that point (actually probably starting to show a teensy bit the time I hit 29-30")

I would love to wear MM and other classic brands. But I'd hulk out of it.

Work makes me bulk up more and if I don't lift and put on pounds by just looking at anything with sugar in it. Fuck you body.

I've not cosplayed much since I dropped the majority of my weight, but I find my body type to be less troublesome in cosplay. It's just a pain in the ass when you really love to collect things from lolita brands you really love.

5"0', 33-25-34 I have a boring body.

Average. I'm thin I guess but not like stick thin or anything. Just average. But it means I suit most characters I like.

kinda /fit/ related, but mebbe interesting to someone

>>8221606
Lolita has been getting harder for me over the years because my boobs wouldn't stop growing. I think they finally stopped. When it comes to western shops I can find some pretty good dresses but they are not loliable.

>>8221608
I dropped from 185 to 174 in about 3 months due to getting off a medication that was causing me to have extreme appetite. I'm still on a corticosteroid though and it makes me retain a bunch of fluid. I can't take diuretics because it will make me very sick.

>>8221259
I have this, so does my friend who is fit beyond belief. its just unfortunate.

Before I started losing weight I was an hourglass when I was at my largest I was, 105(fluctuated between 112 and 99), 78, 98. Now I am 98, 72, 88, does it still count as hourglass or am I an inverted triangle or whatever you call that shape.
In regards to lolita it absolutely limits what I can wear, especially blouses. I recently wore a cutsew to a meet and had a girl comment on how large my breasts were so they don't seem to be the answer either.

>>8221694
I hate that they call it the "violin deformity" because I know so many people who have this that I wouldn't even classify it as a deformity.

5"5', i don't know my measurements but my waist is like 27", i have a decently long torso and a pretty flat chest. but my thighs are kinda fat... Regardless I can still cosplay most normal characters (if it wasn't for my long ugly face but w/e)

>>8221704
My friend and I call it cello hips, which sounds a lot nicer than violin deformity. It's not a deformity at all, it's just not a popular gratified body motif currently so people don't really discuss it. If you look at a skeleton it's pretty obvious why so many of us are shaped like it.

What about how the body looks like from the side? I am the dreaded second from the right. I have early onset osteoarthritis and slight scoliosis. My knees and elbows also hyper-extend.

>>8221259
Ugh, I have this problem. It makes my body look so awkward because my arms and legs are hella scrawny, and what little body fat I do have is all in my stomach, love handles, and flabby ass. Lately I've been gaining a bit more muscle in my upper arms and thighs because of my job, but I seem to also be gaining more fat in my problem areas at the same time. Would love to start hitting the gym but work physically tires me as it is, and it its almost impossible to find the time.

As far as cosplay goes (don't wear lolita), I feel limited when it comes to sexy characters, when those are usually the ones I want to cosplay. Don't got the goods for it

>>8221718
I'm a combo of the rounded tummy and the last one. I have insanely bad posture, and I'm beginning to resort to braces because my neck and back are so weak.

>>8221718
I'm the far right with slightly better shoulder posture. My ass is flatter than a pancake, and even squats didn't seem to help

i look really similar to this except with smaller breasts. without the boobs, her body is much less appealing.

i thought i looked way thinner in mirrors, especially after losing 10lbs, but i got photos back from a photoshoot and holy shit, i am a chubby fucker from the front view. from the side, i don't look fat, but i do from the front. i look so much skinnier with regular clothes on, too. i don't get it.

Good job, anon! If you can't take normal diuretics then you should try tea or coffee. These are natural ones.

I went from 220 to 199 in starting January 1st to Marc 28th. Mostly forcing myself to go to the gym and I got a tablet, so I can keep myself occupied while using machines. That way Im not so bored. Also play a lot of Just Dance and finally eating healthier. Haven't had fast food in 4 months and Im so much better for it. Finally loving myself again and I feel so pretty and sexy!

>>8221820
It's just about posture, not body type.

>>8221536
Idk her hops pretty big

>>8221833
Then I would be #3 [Or, 3rd from the left]. I have trained myself to hold my shoulders back when walking and to stand up straight. Never really figured out why I kinda taught my body that, but thats how Ive been since probably 4th grade. Might be due to my boobs since I started getting them around there?

>>8221293
Same. I often go for kiddy sizes then feel weird because my boobs are often too big to fit, but are comparatively smaller than bigger/taller girls. I've taken to altering cheap kid's clothes/Bodyline (low risk) 5ft (most dresses look like a sack/tent on me) and 130lbs. My legs and ass are too thick for cute jfash or it just looks like I'm sexualizing outfits where the skirt doesn't ride up so much or the shorts aren't so tight on a skinnier girl. Pencil skirts ride up ridiculously because of my big quads and leggings/tights are always tight on the middle of my thigh but saggy between the thigh and butt and above/below the knee. Jeans that fit my ass and thighs often don't fit my waist, so I get a bigger size then all of me looks fat.

>>8221323
>>8221905
Basically you. Do you mean small but big as in they are small compared to girls who have a bigger frame than you, but big for someone your size?

5'7" 120 down from 127.

I've just started losing again. I'm hoping to lose about 15 more, I know that sounds really small but on my frame it's really not. I carry all my weight in my thighs and ass so I need to lose at least that much to look more proportionate. My ultimate weight would be 95-100lbs. Which, again, sounds small but for me it really isn't.

I've been doing 900 a day but I slipped up today so I'll have to make up for it tomorrow.

Does anybody here have nastyass stretchmarks above their boobs from rapid growth or whatever?

I always had some on the inner side of the boob but now they're all across the tops. Idk if from running with poor bras, surprise growth, or what but I'm wondering if there is any treatment for them.

They're the indented white kind, not the red or purple kind.

>>8221933

The only part of a scar that's treatable (generally) is the color. If they're already white there's not much you can do short of plastic surgery/ laser treatment.

Lots of short people in here.

5'10 and 145/150 depending on if I ate recently or not.

>>8221939
Damn, can't say I'm surprised. They were always white, I had no hope from the start.
I just wish I could find more info and pictures that aren't related to pregnancy lol.

>>8221933
>They're the indented white kind
That means they're pretty much healed up; the red/purple ones are usually fairly fresh. Try not to worry about them too much since so many of us have them.

diff fattyanon, but glad to hear two other people feel the same exact way I do. Used to always be around 130lbs, stayed at 140 for 5 years, now back up to 180.... it's awful, but I don't really care that much anymore. I'm my most unhealthy weight in my life, but I've cared about my weight for sooo long that I'm having trouble caring again.

This frustrates me because I've lost a ton of weight lately, but I'm still looking like this. I should start doing more exercise, but I hate running

>>8221259
I'm the same way, unfortunately. It really limits what I feel comfortable wearing. I have an adorable dress but my weird hip shape keeps me from wearing it. I can't do any cosplays that require a hip tight dress... sigh.

>>8222280
There are other options for cardio than running:
jump rope
calisthenic squats for high reps
stationary bike
normal bike
swimming
...and more

besides the most important thing for weight loss is eating at a slight calorie deficit, take the time download a calorie tracking app.

i used to be pretty fat, but i lost almost 50 pounds and i'm now 100 lbs at 5'1". it hasn't boosted my confidence much though, since my arms are still kind of chubby and i have a bunch of stretchmarks on my hips and shoulders and stuff. i have decent measurements (36-26-38), but i just look terrible without clothes. i can't cosplay anything that doesn't cover up my stretchmarks, and i have to wear like three layers of spanx under bodysuits and stuff because i'm still toning up and it's taking forever. it's so fucking frustrating since i thought i'd be happy after i lost weight, but it's just depressing.

i look like second from the right. never really got into sailor moon so i don't know who that is.

>>8222375
*third from the right. fuck.

>>8221593
W-will you be my girlfriend?
pls respond ;_;

Im short as fuck and all I want to cosplay is huge powerful characters like Brienne of Tarth and crossplay large bearded men with huge armor. OH WELL

>>8221254
5'4", 108 lbs give or take depending on how much I've eaten that week, 32-24-34
Probably look most like mercury
It's good for the characters I do, since my face is fairly round and sweet looking, so I do a lot of lolis and nice girl types. Unfortunately, I usually hate those characters and the tropes they come with, so I end up cosplaying characters I don't really like. I'm sure it would be pretty decent in crossplay, if my face could pull it off, since I have no defined curves at all. I've been trying to branch into curvier characters, though. since I found out I can corset my waist down to around 21 inches and do some intense padding of boobs to give myself a more curvy figure.
For jfashion I can pull off most styles, since I fit into "one size fits all" type clothing. Brand is kind of big on me, but I just tie the waist ties tighter and it's usually okay looking. Never boob loafs though, which is a relief.
I worry a lot about my weight still, since I'm still above average asian girl weight. Most of the girls on taobao are around 45 kg and most of my friends in past years were less than 105lbs while still being taller than me. My mom always tells me my legs are really fat and I have a shit ton of stretch marks, though I haven't done any drastic gain/loss, so I'm really aware of my weight (though I don't really try to lose weight unless I'm planning to do some kind of skimpy cosplay)

>>8222280
Saved this picture for cute chubby reference for illustration. Your bod it nice anon

I lost 20 pounds recently. I feel pretty fucking sexy and well proportioned. I've never been really overweight and just chubby. But at my current weight I feel so damn motivated to do sports, run, climb and lift like I never have. Finally I know I'm sweating cause I work hard not because I eat too much and move too little.
I started wearing lolita because of it and it's very flattering on my waist. My only issue in lolita is that my arms are pretty thick but then again I think it's sexy if a girl can flex a muscle and it shows so that outweights my desire to look dainty in lolita.

5'7/5'8, 44-34-44, fat hourglass with linebacker shoulders. Working on loosing weight to look better in lolita. What's weird is even when I was in hs and weighed like 140 I still felt stocky, I think because of my broad frame. I am worried that even after I lose the weight my long torso and broad frame will still keep me from looking nice in lolita. The goal is to get from 170 to 140, but I think for an experiment I want to try being like 120, to see what I'd look like.

I've been waiting for this thread for a loooong time....
Anyway, I used to be pretty overweight but I've dropped about 20-30 pounds in the last few years, but I still feel really pudge-y.

I'm 5'4" and 126 pounds, and my measurements are 35-26-35.

I found the pic off of mybodygallery, it's basically what I look like (except this girl looks like she's sucking in her stomach a bit, I mean I don't blame her but...).

I was just wondering if I could pull off a Kill la Kill-esque costume or if I should just wait until I drop about six more pounds....

(I really don't know how my body looks, I still feel really fat because I've been heavy all my life)

>>8222536
>except this girl looks like she's sucking in her stomach a bit
she doesn't, sucking in your stomach looks a lot more obvious than that. you're just fat.

>>8221254
5'7, 100lbs, 28-23-34.

Lolita is a struggle for me because I'm too tall for most brand dresses, and the ones that do fit me, I end up swimming in them. I also have long monkey arms, so sleeves are always running short on me. I want to start working out because I'm skinnyfat as fuck.

5'8, 43-33-51 ish
I remember I began losing weight at the age of 3. By 10 I was already well over 220 lb.
When I was 19, at around 298 lb, I was looking into gastric bypass surgery. In fact I completed all of the pre-surgery stuff but I backed out in the end due to losing weight on my own.
However, no matter what, I couldn't lose much weight at all and it was super hard for me to maintain weight once I reached a point. I was also super obsessed with caloric count to the point I didn't look at food, only at calories.
After that I put on a bit of weight (I am at 257 lb now so still way less than back then) but I decided to look into what the fuck was wrong with me.
And then I found out I have lipedema. I had to go to a physiotherapist which diagnosed me as soon as he saw me. My mother has lipo-lymphedema which is due to her untreated lipedema.
So basically no matter how much weight I might lose, my legs and arms will remain fat cause my fat cells are sick.
At least now witht the treatment I can have a better life.

>>8222541
>>8222536
This is pro-ana levels of insane. The girl in the picture isn't fat at all. Don't feel bad about yourself, OP, I've got similar measurements and I've been thin to average all my life.

>>8222536
Are you for real

>>8222562
This

I'm 5'2", about 98, maybe 100 pounds? I haven't weighed myself in a few weeks, but my weight never tends to leave the late late 90's or really early 100's. I'm 32-26-32.
I tend to cosplay younger characters because in the end they are what works best for me. Most of my favorite characters are super tall manly men so I mean it's not so bad..

>>8222562
>The girl in the picture isn't fat at all
That's exactly what I was saying you mongoloid, OP implied that she looks like that due to sucking in her stomach. I said that it isn't, and that she must be fat if she thinks that you can only look like that while sucking in your stomach.

>>8221254
>What's your body type
Short emaciated skeleton king
>how does it help or limit your cosplay/lolita?
I can't cosplay people outside of my body type for obvious reasons

>>8222592
She listed her measurements, which were fine, and you still called her fat. I admit I kind of misunderstood your post, but that was still very uncalled for.

>mfw all the relatively average and underweight girls feeling like they're fat itt

If you think you're fat now, you'll still think you're fat at 100 or 90 pounds, ladies. Either that or you'll find some other physical "flaw" to have shitty self-esteem about. You'll wonder why you're at your ideal weight but your thighs still touch, or that your arm flab won't ever truly go away.
You bodies weren't meant to look like animus, or look like they're permanently 14 years old. You'll feel a lot better once you learn to let go a bit. There's a difference between becoming an obese slob and accepting the fact that your bodies will naturally put on more weight.

>>8222603
>but your thighs still touch
I always thought it was a meme, do some people actually think like this?
I'm underweight and my thighs still touch.
I can't be fat either because my hipbones and ribs are showing so.

>>8222549
>28" bust
how?
>100lbs
You should probably work to gain a bit of weight if you have the resources. It takes a couple months of constant high calorie and nutrient food, but you'll gain weight. Do a focus on strength exercises when/if you start. Even just 15lbs would be good, as you're quite underweight as is.
>inb4 muh fast metabolism i can never gain weight

I wish I was back to 100lbs just so I could be a gluten again, it was great. So many sandwiches and homemade burritos and loaded salads.

>>8222608
Yes, people legitimately hate themselves because their fucking thighs touch. Image issues tend to be unrealistic.

>>8222478
I need to work out again
>tfw when I was fit I could never get muscle to show without flexing and my arms were small

I liked that my arms were small, but it in combination with the rest made it look like I had nothing at all. My stomach was rock hard too.

34-28-40 at 5'10.5" and 150lbs. I guess I'd be the Sailor Pluto, if anything more hippy.
It kind of sucks height wise for anything Lolita in regards to being modest, but it's manageable. In regards to cosplay I try to stick to characters on my skin tone (tan/olive) and then look at body shape. I tend to carry my fat in the pudge around my upper hip area and my thighs, so I typically don't do anything exposing a lot of midriff due to being self concious.

>>8222592
You must be fat if you think she's too skinny to have some chub to suck in.

>>8222617
>that mental gymnastics

86-67-86 at 178/5'10

I'm thin enough that most shirred and some unshirred brand fits comfortably, but I'm basically limited to longer empire/high waist cuts and pieces that work with underskirts if I don't want to look like a whore. Good thing I'm in classic.

>>8222611
>how?
I'm a really narrow person all around, so even though I'm not DFC territory, my chest measurement (around the fullest part of the bust) is still pretty small.

>muh metabolism
Nah, I don't buy into that. I've always been underweight, but I know that's more the fact that I can't be fucked to eat than genetics. Any recommendations for cheap, nutrient dense foods? Broke ass college student here.

I'm 5'2 and 120 pounds. Am I fat? /r9k/ says I'm fat since a friend posted a picture of me there as a joke but now they regret it.

>>8222633
I've just never seen such a narrow chest so I'm curious to how it looks.

Nuts, avocado, cheap cuts of beef(including hamburger meat), bread, peanut butter(go for the unsweetened kind and pair with honey to make it nice), then add fried mushrooms and peppers for flavour along with whatever fruit, spices, and condiments you like.
Not cheap, but cheese especially goat cheese will add a lot of flavour to your salad.

For lettuce buy spinach or kale; romaine if you want wraps, iceburg lettuce is basically water.

I basically lived off of homemade pizza, burritos/wraps, various sandwiches(my favorite being tuna with pepper and mustard grilled with cheese), salad, nuts, and fruit.

>>8222639
No you aren't, shut up. /r9k/ is the he-man woman hater's club. Unless you're a 10/10 they'll always call you fat.

>>8222642
Okay, I never thought I was just kinda confused.

5'10", 35-24-39. My body looks exactly like the Venus in OP. I really want to gain weight for bigger boobs but I fit into most lolita pieces perfectly and I guess in lolita it's better to have a smaller chest.

>>8222641
My body is pretty much straight up and down until you get to my waist. I don't have any outward curves on my upper torso. I tried to take a photo from the back, and it just looked like any other thirteen year old boy.

Peanut butter and honey sandwiches are actually one of my favourite snacks.

Thanks for the recommendations; I can definitely make some decent meals with just those, and not worry about it going stale from eating the same stuff over and over again.

>>8222633
While the other anon gave you a good reply for a healthy weight gain you might as well just buy a bag of chips to eat from on top of what you normally eat (so most likely for the evening) or milk to drink instead of what you normally drink. Or double the amount of oil you use while cooking. All of that is really cheap.
If you forget to eat the most important thing is just to have a regular schedule and reminder.

>>8222639
You're concerned about the opinions of a bunch of self-proclaimed ugly, jobless, dropout, antisocial piss juggers? Even if you were fat, sounds like you've got bigger fish to fry insofar as mental health problems.

>>8222633
I'm >>8222608 and here's what I do:
I have a terrible sweet tooth so I usually make a lot of granola bites at home.
You get a bag of mixed seeds and nuts, some rolled oats, honey and pure cocoa powder (I use the regular Van Houten). You can put whatever you want in there - cashews, sunflower seeds, peanuts, pistachios, almonds etc. Then you mix it all in a bowl, spread over some cooking paper, put into the oven for 5-10 minutes and then into the fridge and you're done.

I like those because they're quite filling without being full of thickeners and all that other stuff that doesn't benefit you.

Protein shakes are also a good snack, and you can get more recipes from websites like blogilates and scooby's workshop (inb4 /fit/faggots)

For actual meals there's thousands of recipes, but I would focus on eating more smaller meals in a day (this doesn't mean snacks only!) rather than one big meal with a big pause in between. Just eat when you feel you can.
I'm looking for some good vegetable-based recipes myself, one I've really liked so far is the Greek spinach pie (spanakopita). I like to pack it with spinach really densely and sneak a little cheeky broccoli in there as well.

>>8222670
no no no
that'll only make anon feel and look disgusting. Nutrition is actually important.
>>8222689
I forgot to list power smoothies

you could make a pot pie or curry

>>8221718
Second from the right as well. Stupidly tilted pelvis/inward curve at my lower back, makes me look like I have way more of an ass than I actually do. Also makes it impossible to find pants that fit me right, I just wear skirts or jeggings. :/

>>8221270
Usagi in that pic isnt even skinny fat lol

>>8222562
Really? I always thought that I was flabby, but I guess I really don't know what I should be comparing myself to. People in my family are either super skinny, super athletic, or super obese and since I wasn't in the first two categories I thought that I was the latter.

(It didn't help that the obese people in my family would call me fat and ugly,haha)

>>8222541
Oh and sorry I was kind of unclear about that! I meant that her rib cage kind of juts out a bit sharply, kind of like she is holding her breath or sucking in her stomach a tiny bit.

My stomach is a lot more...uniform?

I didn't mean to say that she's sucking in her stomach a lot, because if that was the case she wouldn't look like me at all, heh.

(Sorry for the misunderstanding!)

>>8222694
Is you're eating additional calories on top of your usual healthy level of nutrition, you won't lose any of it.

I have scoliosis so I kind of hate my body and I think it always looks crooked. When making costumes I try to take that into account.

Also, I need to work out more.

>>8222672
Just kinda a weird shock since I never thought of myself as fat.

>>8222712
You look fit to me! But how bad is your scoliosis ? I can't tell from your picture.

>>8222729
30 degrees in the lower lumbar. Not bad but its enough to cause me back pain, and the pain reminds me how crooked I am. Its so stupidm. Also I'm not fit enough until I look like a side character in DBZ. I want to be fit enough to have blonde hair, blue eyes, and maybe a giant yellow cloud in that order.

I'm an hourglass shape, and really short. My legs are much shorter proportionally than my torso. I'm a little on the overweight side, really big tits (32DDD), which make me not really into Lolita since I can't really fit into brand.
Eugh. Sucks picking out cosplays because my body type usually fits the kawaii uguu~ big tit anime middle schoolers, but all I want to cosplay is zero suit samus.

89lbs 5'5"

Always been uncomfortable with my body. Really no boobs/butt to speak of, so I don't feel very feminine when I cosplay. Was hoping to put on a few pounds before Anime North this year.

5'8", 125 lbs. 31-27-38. I'm happy with the way my body looks but I want to become more athletic. The heaviest I've ever been was 138 when I was in college, but after cutting back on coffee drinks and sweets I lost that without making much of an effort.

I mostly choose tall, elegant characters with small chests. Most similar to Uranus but I've got hips. I wouldn't go for young, cutesy characters or big boobie ladies because it would probably look ridiculous.

I like to crossplay even though my hips, as they say, do not lie. I don't let it stop me even though I'm not the most convincing man. OH WELL.

>>8222712
I'm the same, mine might be a bit less severe since it's less noticeable, but I also have the uneven hips and waist

5' 9", 120 lbs, 33-26-36

I'm mostly leg, which is nice for shojo characters, and flat-chested. I also have a pretty severe face structure with Bitchy Resting Face, so androgynous and harsher heroines are my ideal. I'm also okay at crossplay as long as the outfit sufficiently disguises my hips.

Sometimes I'm sad that my height and face prevent me from cosplaying cute girls, but then I remember that there are so many badass women and girly men to choose from.

>>8222743
>32DDD
>thinking that exists

>>8222712
Aaah! I also have scoliosis. I feel like I'm the only one who can notice my uneven hips though so it's like a constant annoying poke only I can feel.

>>8222814
>>8222797
Fuck yeah scoliosis bros. Let's rejoice in the fact that were beautiful without symmetry.

>>8222827
Sorry, best picture I could get. But it's a lot more noticeable on my left side. It's seems less curved than my right. Thankfully it's non-existent if I'm wearing normal clothes but some form-fitting cosplays or clothes like bras and stuff make it more noticeable.

>>8222874
However it doesn't help that these shorts themselves are uneven, woops.

>>8222874
My belly button looks so sad compared to yours.
My waist does the exact same thing. My pelvis/hips are wider/there's a bigger contrast with my waist. It's very frustrating even though no one can tell unless I point it out and am in a bikini

>>8222810
32ddd is a thing

>>8222882
Aww, no. I like your belly button, if you were pic related >>8222712 it's round!
Yeah, I mean it's kind of nice no one else notices it, but as the person who does see it, it can get kind of annoying. It's not so bad though. Could be worse! Even I forget it's there sometimes.

>>8222352

Shit sucks because I have such small tits and waist only making my hips look even more fucking large. My shoulders even out how everything looks, but I always till look don't proportioned all the time :\

nothing but great looking girls in this threat m8s

>>8222883
PLEASE dont start another fucking bra thing!

6 feet 2 inches, 140 lbs, narrow hips and semi-broad shoulders. A lot of the characters I like are much shorter so I look lanky and awkward as fuck when I try to cosplay them. I also really want to trap but my height definitely gets in the way of that, even though I do have a fairly feminine face. Life is unfair.

>>8222747
That's pretty underweight, I think you need more than a few pounds anon...

>>8222910
Big hips aren't a bad thing anon wtf.

I'm pretty fit, but basically a flat-chested rectangle. I'd love to have a more defined waist, but I guess that won't be happening. At least I found out which cuts flatter my body type.

Anybody else have a protruding mons pubis? I'm not even fat but I'm too embarrassed to wear revealing cosplays (mostly low waisted bikinis/shorts) because of this.

5'6 and 105 pounds. Don't have any fabric measuring tape.

Too tall to cosplay as a loli

5 ft, aprox. 88 pounds

30- 24 - 33

slight hourglass figure

I have trouble finding decent normalfag clothing, though H&M's size 32 (EU/NL) dresses fit me perfect, but try to find a size 32 anywhere else. adult size jeans are too long and kids' size jeans are too small in the hips, that's why I only wear skirts.

most Lolita stuff fits me fine, especially AP with lacing, though I have trouble with Meta's bodice lenght (too long). And Baby's blouses are often too long in the sleeves.

A good thing I can sew

God damn, how do you guys keep yourselves so thin? Is it your diet or did you just hit the genetic lottery?

I've lost 55 pounds so far (currently 5'6" and 125 pounds) but my weight loss progress has come to an official hault and I've been the same weight for the past 3 months, despite doing everything right. I would kill to be 118-120.

>>8223011
Shh. Don't tell them.

>>8221414
>waist bigger than my chest
That's a weird mental image

>>8223048
Part of it could be genetics, like having a narrow frame or being taller. The "fast metabolism" thing is a myth. All the skinny people I know, even the ones who don't have the healthiest diets, don't eat a whole lot. They don't eat unless they're hungry and stop eating before they feel full. Larger people do the opposite.

It sounds like you probably have a wider frame or have more muscle on you. You're probably thinner than you think, the number on the scale doesn't mean anything. 125 is a good weight for your height and I wouldn't stress about going lower.

>>8222910
sister.
I do the 3 bra thing in cosplay, that way my boobs get the perfect cartoon look, and combined with my waist/hip ratio it works.

>>8223048
To be completely honest? Besides being premature, I guess genetics and years of depression. I'm actually trying to gain weight (I also started lexapro yesterday so I'm finally taking those steps towards being healthy in other ways) so I've been working toward a healthier diet. I mean I'm okay with my size and honestly I'm only a few pounds underweight, but I'd just prefer a little more meat on me.

32/24/34 at 5'4 and 106 pounds

I'm pretty well set for jfash except for the fact that I carry a ton of weight in my thighs which makes any sort of legwear look either gross or overtly sexual. I can only dream of short skirts and thigh highs.

>>8223082
Hey, I was also a preemie who was depressed for a long time and just started lexapro.

>>8223086
Neat! Sorry for being super OT but when you first started taking Lexapro, did it make your inner throat tickle? Cause for some ever since I took the first pill last night I feel this weird tingle almost when I yawn or burp.

>>8223076
Adding to this:

Certain medications can make people thinner. I know some people who lost tons of weight on Adderall even though they were eating a lot. I took it myself for about two weeks and lost 5 pounds almost instantly.

>>8221356
I'm 5'5" and 118lbs and I can confirm I don't have this at all.
my friend has it though so im pretty sure it's just something you have or you dont

>>8221270
Running won't tone your body. I recommend lifting weights (no, you won't get bulky muscles).

>>8223098
I've only taken two pills, but I definitely haven't noticed that. I haven't really seen any side effects yet besides sleeping poorly, but I'm also pretty sickly and on a bunch of other things so I just might not have noticed them.

It's worth mentioning I take it right before I go to sleep because I'm scared of side effects though.

>>8221291
>>8222331
Sheeeit, and here I was thinking I was the only one with this problem.

Shopping for dresses and shirts is a pain in the ass because either it fits nicely around the waist but gives me boobloaf, or it fits alright around the boobs but like a potato sack everywhere else.

I just want to wear shirts that aren't made for guys, goddamnit.

>>8223113
Same here, admittedly. My allergies have been really bad. I took them before bed as well but I still got the tickling feeling.

I'm switching to veganism, am I gonna lose weight? I will be eating mostly veg and corn-based stuff, I didn't come in with the intentions to lose weight but am I going to anyway? I used to kinda eat whatever before

>>8221270
Running to lose weight is dumb.

It's so much work for such a small calorie burn.

Go ride a bike.

Turn up the level and just do a five mile ride.

>>8222309
I also strongly recommend using some app that calculates your trend weight (e.g. Libra) instead of actual weight, because it can be too frustrating if menstruation water retention makes it look like you've stopped losing weight, or maybe even gained waight, even though your "normal" weight would be less than what it was before.

>>8223124
Are you cutting them in half to take a half dose? I am, but you could be sensitive to it or something? I would bring it up with your doctor just in case even though this stuff can cause really weird side effects.

I guess alternately it could be like a reaction from your immune system since it's already going crazy from the allergies?

>>8223149
It really depends on diet. A lot of vegans I know eat mostly bread, pasta, etc and didn't lose any..

>>8223150
For some reason running makes me feel much better after than biking. I can bike about 8 miles in 30 minutes, but going for an hour run is much harder for me.

>>8223159
I used to have crazy social anxiety about the gym, but it goes away once you go a couple times. Everyone is just there to work out, and no one is going to pay attention to you.

>>8223149
I've seen people who gained weight on a vegan diet. Don't eat too much, and don't eat too much junkfood even if it's organic fairtrade glutenfree [more buzzwords] vegan junkfood. But you can easily gain wait by just eating too much "healthy" food. Portion control, and don't forget to pay attention to your micro-nutrients.

>>8223166
well I just said I'm mostly eating veg and corn based stuff so that wasn't helpful at all?
I have ibs so eating "tons of bread and pasta" isn't an option unless I feel like having liquid shits and cramps all day

But you can easily gain weight by just eating too much "healthy" food. Portion control, and don't forget to pay attention to your micro-nutrients.

>>8223002
Do you consider your weight normal or underweight? I'm asking because I'm 5'6" 106 and I'm not sure if this is normal or not. I undereat so I expect to gain weight when I eat normally but I'm not sure what would be a normal weight for me.

>>8223158
>fatties really think this
Except not really because again, for all the running you do it burns up such a small amount of calories.

You can burn 100 calories on a bike in ten minutes versus running for a least 30.

>>8223166
>>8223174
>bread and pasta
>didn't lose weight

Jesus fucking Christ DUH.

You guys need to go lurk /fit/s diet threads for a while.

I used to complain about my body type but now I'm actually pretty good with it. I've just met too many girls with hulking shoulders who are shaped like a ball it doesn't feel right to complain.

>>8223186
but you're basically saying fatties shouldn't bother trying anything but high calorie burning exercises which are usually more intense on your heart and you can't do them nearly as long
It would make sense to work up towards doing those work outs instead of jumping right in and then giving up because you feel like you're going to die

>>8223174
Then you'll lose weight assuming you don't eat over your TDEE.

What kind of IBS do you have? I'm D and bread is one of the few safe foods.

>tfw had ice cream today
>new meds mean that's okay
Wish I could fix the bloating though.

>>8223176
This. People seem to forget sugar free or fat free doesn't equal calorie free. I've been shopping with friends who cheerfully show me a bottle of lemonade going "Look! Fat free!"

I did not consider that whole "learn to walk before you run" thing.

Okay anon, I concede.

>>8223198
I feel you anon. Every time I feel shitty about my body, I look up apple body types and feel a little better. That is seriously the most unfortunate shape.

>>8223198
Agreed. I'm tall and pear shaped so even though I'm overweight its pretty much mostly in my ass and legs. I weigh more than my shorter chubby friends but look way better because they got stuck with apples.

>>8221438
honestly this is probably right

>>8223186
Is that for real? I would feel like running would burn way more because usually in life if it takes longer and you hate it more, it will give better results. For me anyways lol. If this is true I'm going to bike more.

Someone's got a hot mom.

5'4" 100 lbs, 31-24-30
I would have a perfect body if I hadn't spent all of my adolescence hunched over a computer, eating shit food and getting shitty sleep. Instead of having the Ziegfeld Follies worthy body I was genetically destined for, I have the upper frame of a ten year old boy with an E.T. neck and weirdly giant head with a tiny babby face. I have perfect boobs but it doesn't matter because my chest and shoulders are so narrow. Even XS tops are sometimes too wide on my puny bird-like frame. God damn it. Anybody else have extremely narrow shoulders? I see a lot of people talking about how wide theirs are and I am so fucking jealous.
>sage for pointless whining

>I have the upper frame of a ten year old boy with an E.T. neck and weirdly giant head with a tiny babby face.
+ wurly ginger hair and invisible eyebrows and that's me
also no tiddies

5'9" (175cm)
34.5 - 26.5 - 38" (88 - 68 - 96cm)
129lb (58.5kg)

My body type is probably closest to Jupiter or Pluto, from that image. At my heaviest I was 155lb a few years ago. I'm much happier with how I look now.

I'm looking to lose 4 more pounds. I'm just eating at a slight deficit and taking it slow. After traveling to Japan and lamenting not fitting some things, and being both taller and larger than almost everyone, my boyfriend and I both started eating better together. We picked up tracking calories when we first started dieting to figure out appropriate portions. I recommend myfitnesspal. He's lost 30% of his body weight in the last six months. I've lost about 12lb. Neither of us is very active.

The only way my body interferes with lolita is length and some bust measurements. My arms are too long by a couple inches for most brand sleeves, and some dress are too short. I generally choose cosplays that suit my shape. I'll never pass as a man because my face is too round and my hips are too wide.

>>8221593
I'm almost exactly the same as the picture, but 5'8" and 165lb. Also, almost flat chest and covered with scars, absolutely disgusting.

5'3" 136 lbs 39-29-38

My cosplay problems are mainly boob related. I don't want my tits taking center stage, so I try to cover them, but there's so few big titty characters that wear actual clothing it's an eternal struggle.

>>8223356
Some DC/Marvel characters have full body suits that will also hide binding if needed/wanted.

You inspired me anon. I am going to draw my interpretation of you

>>8223370

>>8223377
I failed you my muse. Many apologies.

I'm 161 at 5'5". I'm a pear with a fairly high waist to hip ratio (less obvious here with the loose shirt) and wide shoulders.

I started lifting a few times a week a year and a half ago. My back and shoulders have gotten a lot bigger, so I find it difficult to fit in women's shirts these days; they're too tight across the chest, when the hips were previously my problem. I outgrew a number of old costumes. I may just go for sleeveless stuff or spandex in the future since my body has been changing too much for really structured costumes to be worthwhile.

>>8222993
Yup. Skinny here and it sticks out a bit. My bf loves seeing it in pants and tights but embarrassing to me in public.

I'm not very slim....I'm pretty chubby, people tell me other wise but I see my face being a little chubby. Maybe I'm over thinking it. If I put myself up to working out I know I would lose the chubb I do have.
For someone who eats a lot and lays down all da,y, I should be way bigger than I already am. I'm just inbetween chubby and thin.

Late response is late but I consider myself a little underweight, mainly because my breasts haven't grown very much. I just want to gain 5 pounds to get delicious thighs but otherwise I'm pretty much happy with my body.

>>8223364
Yeah, I'm branching out to Marvel already. Excited.

>>8223048
uh anon.....you WANT to be about 125 if you're 5'6" if you go below 120 you'd be underweight and that is no fun. Plus muscle weighs more than fat and all of that jazz. You're fine, stop worrying about numbers.

I gained like 40lb since Christmas and have gained some 2 inches all over - Gotta get that down again because none of my fancy Christmas gift bras fit now. Fuck.

It's fine for cosplay and most lolita. I need to get extra-large items to fit my bust, but 99% of lolita items will have waist-ties anyway. Longer hems are also nice.

>>8223695
Oh, uh. I have one of those really small-boned, waifish bodies, which is how I manage to be such a fatty-fatty-2x4-can't-get-through-the-kitchen-door at relatively small measurements.

I have really weirdly slender arms and legs, though, with narrow shoulders. It's super easy to hide which is probably how I let it get so bad.

>22" thighs, muscular calves, but if I cover my legs at around mid thigh I can create the illusion that they're a lot more slender than they are.
>hip measurement is all butt, actual hip bones are narrow.

I think that just about summarizes my body. All in all, I usually look a bit rectangular. there's some things I will always mourn, like the fact that narrow hip bones + large thighs means no tiny gap at the top of my thighs. I also wish I could get my waist a lot smaller, but a narrow ribcage makes it harder for it to look smaller in comparison, even when it gets smaller in measurement. I've kind of come to terms with it though. also, I think fat distribution in people's bodies is really interesting. I can have protruding hip bones and every rib visible while still having huge thighs and a bit of flab on the belly. Bodies are weird.

I can fit into most brand quite comfortably (maybe MM is still out of reach. Eventually though). As for cosplay, the few characters I've liked enough to cosplay I match in body type fairly reasonably. I do feel a bit self conscious, esp. when a character will be described as "SOOOOO slender" because I don't see myself that way, but eh. I'm also not sure how well I'd be able to pad my bust for characters with large breasts. For characters with small breasts, a sports bra is enough to flatten me adequately.

well, now that I've poured out all these feels about the way my body usually is, I can't really worry about it because I'm pregnant right now. I still wear lolita semi-comfortably thanks to shirring, though bodices will look ill fitted of me. funnily enough, because my bust ballooned to a 30E in the first few months, boobloaf was a problem way before my bump had a chance to be. I miss my 30Cs but I don't think I'll see them for a while.

I cosplay chubby/round faced characters and designs with fluffy skirts. I've done a few cosplays with shorts but I'm less comfortable in them. I'm fortunate a lot of my fat is in my butt and thighs instead of my stomach or waist.

i went from 103lbs to 93lbs by running 3-8 miles every day. it made me drink way more water and made me less hungry... so you can definitely lose weight running. maybe you burn more calories per hour doing other things, but that doesn't mean running does nothing.

my bf put on 30lbs when he stopped running 10+ miles a day and cut back to 5 miles or less.

Why do none of them have any figure whatsoever, and how do I avoid this when I start working out? I have a great figure and Iwant to keep it that way.

I'm inverted triangle and it sucks for lolita because most jsk cuts just make my shoulders look wider and most brand OPs and blouses don't fit there either. I know burando isn't the be-all, end-all but still.

Bust, waist, hip is 36-25-34 iirc

I fluctuate between 122-126lbs depending on the time of the month. I figure I'm closer to a pear shape since I have bitty titties. Can't really complain about the chest size since I can fit into most of my lolita dresses well. My waist swings between 26-28 lately, which has made fitting into non-shirred pieces a real pain at times.

Very much pear shaped.

I gained the 13lbs recently (used to be 102) and have been struggling alot with the weight recently as it all went to my egg pouch (the area right above the pubic bone), ass and thighs.

Lolita sorta helped as it covers these problem areas but lately Ive noticed some things fitting a bit tighter (waist used to be a 25) and its just beating me down. I never really worried about my diet or exercise and now that Ive become so accustomed to being lazy I have alot of trouble motivating myself to start making better decisions and move my butt off the bed. I feel terrible telling people in my real life about my weight issues because they usually bawk at me and go on about how they wish they were thin like me or how I'm stupid to think Im getting fat.

5'3.5"
34-27-36, 140 lbs
34A/32B
pear shaped, I guess.

I have huge thighs and calves from years of figure skating. I wear juniors size 10 pants, but size small shirts (depending on the store). I really hate my legs and I feel like I can't look good in anything except maxi dresses because of them. I like lolita because it covers up my thighs (and arms). I'd like to cosplay, but I don't have the confidence to. I feel like I'm not skinny enough to cosplay the characters I like, and I don't have enough boobs to make up for it.

To make things worse, I have a total babyface. I'm in college, but I still get asked if I'm old enough to sit in the exit row on airplanes. That, combined with my lack of boobs and massive thighs, makes me feel like no guy would ever find me attractive.

>>8223866

>>8223498
lets be fweinds

36-28-36...

I lift a lot, and I've been working out for years, so I've built up pretty okay definition. I stick with adult characters, generally fighting characters because I have a serious case of man-arms, to include forearm definition.

There was a time when I wanted to do cute lolita fashion, but I realized I couldn't fit into the dresses without actually being mistaken for a man.

I'd love to do stuff like Korra, but I don't like her attitude and all the times she proves overly strong and still helpless.

>>8224083
Overweight is fat though...

>>8224493
pls go

Fat is literally a thing in everyone's body and you need some of it or you will die. You HAVE fat, you cannot be fat. The amount of fat you have is classed in categories, i.e. underweight, healthy, overweight, obese, morbidly obese. Generally speaking someone who is a bit overweight is can still be healthy, they just have more fat stored in their bodies because that's how their bodies work. Just like someone who is in the "healthy range" can ironically be unhealthy.

>>8223911
You're super cute. Do you work out?

>>8224438
i know that feel, anon. my arms and shoulders sometimes can't fit into blouses even though the rest is loose. my bust size is increasing, too and making button up shirts uncomfortable. i'm only a b cup so I know it has to be the lifting.

i was an inverted triangle to begin with, and now it's only worse.

>>8223887
I'm 5ft, 130 and not a hamplanet.

>>8223789
I totally get you. I have reasobably wide hips but alot of it is ass and chunky, muscular thighs so no gap. Even when I was anorexic I was still thick as fuck which drove me crazy- I only lost weight off my tits after a while. And my ribcage is pretty narrow (28in and bra cups are never close enough together) so my 22-24 inch waist doesn't stand out all that much until I corset down to 18

And wow, I feel your pregnancy boobstoo . I was teased at school for being flat chested, then all of a sudden I got 30DD/Es and the blouses that fit the rest of me started straining/gaping...

Thing is, I see a lot of women who work out who look boxy, so I was worried it's just something that happened. Thanks, though.

>>8225519
This is usually only a problem for women who use steroids or are athletes and using certain parts of their bodies more than others. Like I have track friends who are pretty petite except for their thighs and have the most awkward time buying pants.

>>8223891
don't drop your bf% too low. women are supposed to have a higher bf% than men, and it keeps them curvier.

>>8225519
>>8225624
i also find that women who do weighted oblique work end up really boxy. doing heavy shoulder exercises (like overhead pressing a lot) will make you look more masculine. when i say weighted, i mean they are lifting a substantial amount and not like 10lbs.

>>8223999

I am so fucking jello of those hips, anon.

I have a very broad chest with a narrow waist but wide hips with a very high hip flare, similar to the third one from the right of the top row. It makes my abdomen look like a square and my flat small ass just worsens it. I feel as if no clothes compliment my figure and I look like a box in everything because my ribcage is very wide, but my tits are small. And the high hip flare makes me look really bulky. Even though I've lost weight and toned my body, the flare is still my worst problem because it's not going to disappear. What the fuck am I going to do.
