What 150lbs Looks Like

They all weigh 150lbs

I love this. Just goes to show, one person’s ideal weight isn’t everyone’s ideal weight.

It has to do with weight distribution and age as well. I’m 5’4 but when I weighed 150 I had a dress size of 11.

Yeah I’m about 5’4 and when I was 150 I was an 11 too.. it also has to do with muscle mass… but this is still a really good representation of how people’s “goal weights” will always be different than other people’s

All these women weigh 150lbs.

This helps me realize something I've known for years; every body is different. I am 5'9" so I've always weighed more than and been a bigger size than most of my friends. Even when I was at my thinnest (133lbs, size 6) and you could see my hip bones and ribs, I was embarrassed because the people around me weighed 110-120.  So, I never shared numbers... I just told people I lost 30lbs and that was that.

If you read my blog regularly you've probably noticed that I haven't declared my starting weight, current weight, or goal weight. I've been having a hard time with being truly open with my starting weight. I figured I'd get to my goal weight, then I would share all my numbers. However, I am starting to realize I need to be honest with myself and accept where I am. That being said, I will post for the whole world to see, my stats including measurements... tomorrow (wah-wah, anti-climatic, I know). You'll just have to tune in to find out.
