Thank you for your reply. I am sorry that you feel that way. The article was not meant to discriminate but instead inform that if someone is overweight and is planning to shed some pounds, then that person could choose between a skinny or a shapely body as the end result. Both are achievable. I can understand that some women have tremendously high metabolic rates and find it very difficult to put on weight. But the topic of this blog is weight loss and not weight gain although weight gain could also be a very interesting topic for discussion. Its possible that lots of women with weight problems out there will call you lucky as you are gifted with a skinny body. Anyway all the best and thanks for your valuable feedback.

Saying that straight, skinny bodies are unnatural is absolute bullshit. Many thin women, including me, have the body shape they do because they are born that way, not because of anorexia. The whole “real women have curves” idea alienates women who are naturally skinny and makes them feel like less of a woman. It’s just as bad as discrimination against curvy women. I have been pressured to gain weight and falsely accused of being anorexic, and it was awful. I even succumbed to their pressure in the past and overate to try to gain weight, and I couldn’t, because my body is the way it’s meant to be.

You have summarized it so aptly. We need to love ourselves first before we can love others. I would love to hear views about an earlier article published along these lines;

I think at the end of the day we have to admit, everyone wants to look good. Sometimes when we are too lazy or do not make time to do something to make ourselves look better, we give lots of lame reasons and excuses. We envy people who work at it. We expect people to accept us the way we are when we ourselves are not too happy with the way we look. If we are to accept everything the way it is, then we shouldn’t even be frequenting salons and beauty parlours or even enhance our skin and appearance with beauty products and stuff. We should be leaving everything to God and nature. But God has given us a chance to live and to live the way we want and He wants us all to be happy doing the things we do.. let’s live it ‘beautifully’ in EVERY WAY we can. After all, it’s all about eating healthy, being healthy, looking good and feeling good. When this happens, we are happier people. And happier people are more productive in every way.. We give everything including love, so freely coz we care enough to love ourselves..

Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately, vanity is the single most dominating driver of peoples actions. And the top on the list is how our body looks. So its not that we have digressed in society because we can now verbalize clearly what should be the goal of a weight loss program. An hour glass shape is the natural shape of a woman if she exercises and eats healthy. The difference between an hourglass figure and a “stick” is not dependent on the amount of fat one carries. Instead it depends on how much of muscle mass one carries. It would be wholly disappointing if an hourglass figure depends on fat storage as that is something that we have no control over. But how we tone our body and where we sculpt our muscles are 100% in our control. The “stick” is a result of starvation which is un-natural. I value your feedback and look forward to more comments from you.

Thank you for your comment. Unfortunately its the straight skinny bodies that are un-natural. These are obtained by starving and dieting. If one lives a healthy life with correct exercise and a healthy diet, the hour glass shape is inevitable. Why is it that the hour glass shape was more prevalent in our great grand mothers than it is now? As you said Jean, just eat healthy and exercise correctly and the best shape in you would appear.

So nice to see how we progressed as a society when we continue to commodify a woman’s body deeming it ‘fashionable’ or ‘not’.

The difference between an hourglass or stick figure is the amount of bodyfat and whether the woman has a different hormonal balance from the process of giving birth.

And I should remind all you critics that the reason you are alive is the result of the miraculous processes that occur within a woman’s body no matter what shape it is.

It’s always not right to look into someone else’s shape & figure because if that so,you’ll be forcing your body to adopt which isn’t natural at all.The bottomline is to be happy to whichever you are happy & comfortable at.Our mindset has always been on trend that most famous people created.Whether you are naturally skinny or voluptous,what’s really important is the fact that you can keep it for a long period of time.Just do your best to eat a healthy balanced diet while exercising regularly will surely bring out the best shape hidden in you.
