oh, super! what i would give to waste away and be skinny...

[Variable]

You actually could do that pretty easily.  The only thing you would have to give would be calories. 

[blixa]

i like my calories too much to part with them. i'm pretty happy with my body. i have my off days but generally i'm alright with it. i wouldn't want to be that skinny anyway. their bodies don't appeal to my desires for myself.

[sing blue silver]

They are too skinny. And I'm pretty sure Blixa's body must be delicious.

well if we were all in a situation where cannibalism was necessary, she'd be my vote for first to be eaten.

if we were in a situation of population decline, they would be on my list to...

I hear you.  I like women with curves and a little meat on them.  I caught myself checking out the manikins at Lane Bryant the other day.  I started laughing at myself because of how lame that was.  But obviously I like those kinds of bodies. 

That being said I like slim and Athletic builds too.  My GF is actually super skinny.  She just has a naturally athletic body type.  But when she came home for her two week of R&R in November, she was way too skinny.  I didn't mind telling her either.  I understand why, we worked together doing almost the exact same job the last 3 months that I was in Afghanistan and I lost SO much weight because of how busy we were.  I just didn't have time to eat.  Plus going to get food was a pain in the ass because of our proximity to the chow hall, so a lot of the times we would just take a pass on eating even if we had the time.  But when I came back people were astonished at how skinny I was.  The word emaciated started getting thrown around a lot.  My dad and step mom literally wouldn't ever let me leave the house to go do anything unless I ate something first. 
My point is just that she was way too skinny.  She was still beautiful to me, but not quite as sexy as she was when she didn't look malnourished.  She will never be curvaceous like the Lane Bryant models just because of her genetics.  But no matter what your body type is, I like girls who actually eat and don't try to starve themselves to look sexy. 

[blixa]

plus size models are very very beautiful. it's funny, while i was doing theory during my art degree i realised that all the beautiful women in greek, french, and italian paintings and sculptures i was seeing would now be considered as fat and obese. i had to laugh because there was nothing else to do or say. i don't think the only reason girls starve themselves is to be sexy. there are so many factors. it's so complicate i don't even understand it half the time, even when i'm doing it.

there are some girls that sport the skinny physique really well. women like pj harvey. she's insanely skinny but i've always found her rather beautiful.

[Variable]

Yeah Kat ( my GF ) is just naturally slim but she looks great anyways.  Just when she was actually skinny for her, was when she started to look bad. 

I'm usually a pretty stocky-muscular guy.  I lost 35 pounds on that last deployment.  And it was mainly muscle.  I looked horrible.  So if a guy with my body type lost all that, imagine how she would look.....

[blixa]

how long did it take to gain the weight back?

[Variable]

Well...... I think I started looking healthier a couple weeks after I got back.  But my close friends disagreed.  I mean they were used to seeing me weighing a lean 200lbs.  Then I lose 35lbs of muscle.  My arms were tiny compared to what they used to be.  So even though I could see my face looking better and my body filling out a little more, I think they still just noticed how I didn't have anywhere near the muscle tone that I used to.

And I'm still a lot thinner than I was before I left.  I keep starting to work out, then end up stopping due to some kind of event.  First it was post deployment leave, then it was the Marine Corps Ball, then it was thanksgiving.  Then I did really good between thanksgiving and about December 16th, but when I went on leave for Christmas I once again had to stop.  And I haven't started again even though I have been back over a week because I have been really sick and just don't have it in me.

Plus I have a pretty nasty right shoulder injury.  So 1. there are a lot of exercises that I can't do because of it.  Even though I can still manage to get a pretty good work out.  It's just painful (in a bad way ) at times.  And 2.  My shoulder surgery should be going down very soon ( I find out tomorrow actually ) so It's a bit discouraging to know that no matter how hard I work I'm going to end up losing it again after my surgery.

How tall are you? I'm a little less than 6ft and constantly weigh between 150 and 165. It's weird, I don't do anything differently to make the weight fluctuate. I just go between looking normal, and looking scrawny.
