I don’t know. All of a sudden i feel so fat and lazy. I’m the "ideal size" according to a BMI [Body Mass Index] test i took, but my thighs and breast are getting stretch marks, and so I’m confused. I know im not average size, [being 5"2' and 124Lbs] because i feel so uncomforitable with myself. And i know if you yourself don’t feel comforitable with your weight, it shows.
Then when i saw this exercise program on the other day, the woman was a size 9, and was OVERWEIGHT. I mean, if she’s that weight, and im close to that now at MY age, doesn’t that mean *I’m* obese?
I just feel so bad lately, and i dont know how to make myself feel better. Help please?
-Thanks, Shelbii[:
A size 9 is NOT overweight! You can be perfectly healthy at a size 9 and even higher! Please do not listen to the BMI. The BMI is outdated and does not measure a persons health or beauty at all.
Take a look at this set of pictures which shows how crazy and wrong the BMI can be!

Please do not think you are obese just because of what an excersize program says. Excersize programs are ridiculous. They think that anyone who isn’t a size 2 and toned is "overweight" which is not true at all.
I’m sure you are a beautiful person! You might be getting stretch marks if you’ve been growing taller or gained some weight rapidly. You can try using cocoa butter every night to reduce the possibility and progressing of the stretch marks.

Your ideal weight should be around 110. Sounds like you’d feel better if you lost a few pounds but I would consult a doctor first. You would probably benefit from some therapy sessions to deal with your self-image

Believe it or not, every girl goes through exactly what you’re going through. If you really are overweight, talk to a nutritionist, and start eating healthier. Maybe start jogging. Please don’t be down on yourself or become depressed about this. Keep in mind that every body is different. One person may look good at a size 6, while another person looks way better at a size 9. I know it sounds corny, but it really is what’s on the inside that counts.

Say to yourself loudly: "I’ve got no problems."
Repeat until you get bored of talking to yourself.
Then go do some chores.
Like clean up the house for mommy.
Get Real!
Stop focusing on your weight.
Then it will have a chance to take care of itself.
Eat properly! Find out what eating properly means.
Make it fun to eat properly. If it’s not fun. It’s not going to work.
Fun doesn’t neccessarily mean big laughs.
YOU NEED PROPER CLOTHING!!
Say no more to one size fits all type clothes.
Say no more to stretchable cloths.
It is what’s giving you stretch marks.
You need to use strings to tie & tighten your clothes to fit you exactly, no rubber bands!

If you are concerned about your weight then you should do something about it.I feel that being 5′2 and 124 does not make you obese cause i am 6′0 and 130 pounds.Stretch marks are just a sign that you are growing. You may feel fat and lazy because there was an event in your life that changed the way you look at things like may be breaking up with your boyfriend or a death in your family though it all just have faith in your self
