How Skinny/Light Is Too Much??

Ok well please someone tell me what they think of my body weight and height
Ill give you my age 2!!!!
Height-4'11 1/2
Weight- 47 kg
Age-19
My average clothes size is also 8 but thats here in australia

The thing with BMI is that as someone mentioned previously is it doesnt take into account muscle mass or bone mass (i.e the frame and proportions of your body etc) so athletes who are basically made out of muscle would appear to be overweight on the bmi scale. A much healthier option is to get your fat percentage measured (some scales will do this, or you can get it done at a gym etc). Measuring your fat percentage is also veryyyy important if you intend to lose weight so u can keep track of whether you are losing fat or not (in most cases if it is done improperly you could be losing muscle or just water). For example currently im at 166cm height, 54kg and body fat of 20.3 which i wanna get down to 19% so i dont really pay that much attention to what the scale says, rather than what my body fat measurement says. Theres a table below taken from my favourite source, wikipedia:P :

Description          Women    Men
Essential fat    12–15%    2–5%
Athletes            16–20%    6–13%
Fitness            21–24%    14–17%
Acceptable      25–31%    18–25%
Obese            32%+    25%+

Bottom line is get healthy not just smaller!!

Something to hold on too, or not? XX

I'm 5'1, and i'm 114 pounds..
I wear normally, a size one, to a size 3. Depending on Fabric.
Do I weigh too much, or too little?

(American sizes)

Do bimbos die if you never feed them? or are they allowed to be anorexic?

Bimbos can become quite ill when not fed properly. I was reading another post earlier I belive that sickness sets in when your bimbo is less than 100 pounds. The bimbo that was under discussion puposly allowed her bibmo to fall under 90 pounds and 96 % sickness. Her bimbo was in a wheelchair and had an IV, and many thought that without serious intervention she would die. Many posters are under the impression that she did it on purpose. At any rate, it does appear that bibmbos can die and that they are NOT allowed to become anorexic.

Ok bimbo's can basically "die". I had it happen to me, I wasn't on for a long time (mind you this was quite soon after i joined and didn't realise it could happen)
Then I got an email telling me my bimbo was dead and I could Re-set my account and begin the game again or (i sort of forget the second option) but I think it was pay bimbo dollars to go back to the way I was before and not begin the game over again.

Also the BMI scale is crap, it doesn't take into account your age or muscle mass. You could be a lot heavier but have a lot of muscle on you. Also it doen't consider metabolism rate, so some people have faster metabolisms and burn a lot more calories (therefore losing weight more easily).

You are very skinny, just from that. I live in Australia as well, I am a curvy size 16, I would hate to think what that is in US size. As long as your happy and healthy, there is nothing wrong with your or my size. 

i was just about to write the same thing seriously if your healthy and happy it shouldnt matter what others think of you it breaks my heart to see girls who say they are fat wake up and take a look at the real world and not the magazines, celebrities, supermodels etc not many real women are a size 0 (not that i am critising those who are)

learn to love yourself and you will end up having alot more fun in life

im a english size 8 wat the heck is that in american size?

I think (and most other men i know) women that are curvy are the sexiest.  I don't mean curvy in the way of rail thin with breast implants and butt implants.  I like women with soft curvy hips, thighs, and arms and a big 'ol bouncy bottom    Was that too crude?    My girlfriend is  a size 14 and has a smokin' body!

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WHEN I HEAR A BOY/MAN, THAT SAYS THAT HE DOES NOTLIKES GIRLS WHO R FAKE OR THOSE WHO R EXTREMLY ALWAYS COMPLAINING ABOU HOW THEY LOOK.

Sure it depends a lot... I'm a medical student and I know what's healthy for me. I'm kinda skinny but that's my body frame, I'm 5´6 and 119 pounds... and I'm 20 years old. But I'm healthy and full of energy and I eat quite well. So it all depends on how people feel.

My bimbo is 110 pounds and looks good!! I am 5 foot 7 and 123 pounds which i think is healthy! x x

this thread is depressing, i really hope my metabolism doesn't slow down too much when i start to hit my late teens. i'd like to stay a size 8 - that's not too big but not too small in my opinion >.< (i'm from the UK, btw)

You can teach your metabolism NOT to slow down. Your metabolism only slows down if you make crazy diets and still lead a sedentary life. You gotta exercise and have your body properly toned and active for it not to slow. It's not only hormonal or anything.

My mom and I have the same body frame but she put more weight on when she was my age, because she never did half the sports I did or walk as much as I walk everyday. And I know I'm still going to have a different body from hers when I get her age, despite pregnancies and all, just because I lead a totally different lifestyle. It's not as if she's fat or anything; same genetic background, but you can have a healthier body with a healthier lifestyle!

Also I'm always trying to put on weight because I want to have a decent fat reserve to enhance fertility. Women who are too skinny are putting their future babies at risk!
