I answered that I don't compare myself and I can really say that I don't and here's why: I am 5'5 and 172 pounds. I'm overweight BUT I know that it's my choice to be that way. If I wanted to lose weight, I could go to the gym (which I became a member of) and eat more healthy than I do. I could, but I don't. Why? Because I'm happy the way that I am. I wear clothes that are comfortable (not always fashionable but that's never been a big thing for me).
I just feel that I have enough to offer with my personality. When it comes to the way I look, I do try to keep myself orderly, but in the grand scheme of things, there are so many ways to change the way you look that why panic? Why get jealous of the skinny girl when, if you want to by natural or unnatural means, you could get to that size?
I guess this all sounds like BS to some but honestly, it's how I feel. I never got into reading the fashion/celebrity magazines, I have had people tell me that I'm a bit heavy and I tell them this "unless you think I'm unhealthy, it's really none of your business to comment." I have friends who love me for the person that I am and a guy who loves me for who I am (and how I look, and he's seen the stretch marks and the weight).
Overall, I don't compare myself to other women because: If I want to be the size they are, if I work on it, I can get there. Why be jealous?
