And seriously if you do those respectable amounts/times every single day then YOU are lying about your body type...you would be athletic, not average.

i never said that i'm the average height!! i'm short as hell! and i know it! i just hate to hear that the "average" is so miss understood! average is all on you! look at it this way, i want to loss weight and i am in my standards. i don't like the way i look and i'm changing that! you have to deside. do i want to look, feel , and just know that i am healthy or do i want to wonder every day if i will have a heartattack today or tommarrow! i know that i am forced to be healthy. i just want everyone to know that healthy people dont weight like 300 pound at the height of 5'!

if your happy with what you look like and the weight that your at then your perfect and need not worry about the rest of the world! i ain't happy with my weight so i'm on a diet! i wont to loss at least ten pounds! and then i might be happy! as for my question, you all made it seem like you want me to just go out and commit suicide! well this is one Marine that won't even thing of it! i fight so you can be you!!!! so think of this! the average Marine is overweight, not by our standards but by the MARINES STANDARDS!!! can any one of you do 20 pullups, run 3 miles in 18 minutes, and 100 situps in 2 minutes! that is the perfect PFT!!! that's no matter your age, height, or weight! males at that! female have to hang for 70 seconds instead of doing pullups!!! and thier run is 21 minutes!!! see if you can do that!!! i do it every week!!!!!

Don't miss my ironic and humorous point!!!

SEMPER FI! My father is a 23 year Marine vet, 2 tours in Viet Nam, terrible nightmares (not as much as he used to), horror stories of talking with a friend in the trench next to him, gun fight starts, ends a few minutes later, he begins the conversation again only to find that his friend has a bullet in the brain. Sad but true. I have all the respect of the military; but come on, quit lecturing on weight issues. Let people perceive theirself as they wish. I think I am average, I lift weights which ads muscle. Muscle is heavier than fat. So think before you speak, that "little weight/height chart" really isn't much use if someone is 5'5", weighs in at 140lbs, but is lean muscle. As for you doing your running, situps and pullups, well if you do this every week still, why are you not happy with your weight? You must be in tip top shape! As for me, running isn't good on the knees, for any age, but I can power walk 3 miles in just under 45 minutes. That is walking up hills too. Not too bad I think.

Okay I am not overweight and matter of fact I have been told to gain some at times .. But still I have had exes and men tell me that my azz is too big or say that I am fat .. I am 5 5 and on my heaviest day weigh 127 and during climbing season drop down to 122.. the reason that this whole topic makes me angry is that you men like to keep us on the edge about looks and weight and anything else you can throw in there to feel superior .. the industry that is fed by this insecurity created by a marketing scheme which is run by MEN.. thrives .. tell a woman she is beautiful today and that the only thing you'd ever change about her is her last name and I guarentee you will get some love back .... nuff said

Alright. I read through the whole thread and found it very entertaining. I knew the dude was doomed as soon as I read his post. If you're anything other than touchy-feely nice on here, you get reamed.

I did learn that the "average" AREICAN is overweight. My only comment on fatness is that it is not healthy. Look around. How many OLD fat people do you see? So before you continue to rationalize and make excuses for your fatness, take that into consideration. Or don't you want to be around for your kids?

Indian Princess - He mentioned the max scores of 20 pull ups, 200 situps in 2 mins, and 3 miles in 18:00, and said that he does that every day...

Um sox sweety you're begging for attention in here....

What if I'm not quite looking to change her last name?

I see quite a few overweight older people when I go to the stores and to the Senior's meetings with friends and my parents.
