Does anyone else have no wish to be very "thin"?

[Felix01]

My BMI is 21.5 probably a bit porky by MN standards. I've been ill but I feel a bit frail and too thin, my hip bones are jutting , I'm going back to the gym to do weight training I like having big thighs , big bum , feeling strong I'd be happier with a BMI of around 22.5 even 23. Does anyone else feel like me or does everyone want to have a very low BMI? Is being very thin a sign of status? I think once women start to get older it looks very aging.

It really is a choice between your face and your arse when you get older.

FFS.

Is that your ancient looking thin friends think you look nearly 20 years younger than your age?! I think people are being polite and doubt you look early 50's.

That’s not the same as saying MNers standard is that 21.5 is porky.

In reality, I one looks 15-20 years younger than they are. Also, excess weight on the face makes one look matronly and jaw and neck definition disappear which is terribly aging.
