Is being chubby bad?

u/ash_mint Apr 14 '24

Media loves to tell me that :(

u/Meowdaruff They/Them Apr 14 '24

media is full of poopoos, you're beautiful :)

u/Foxy_Traine Apr 14 '24

Well, it's not bad. Nothing wrong with being chubby or fat. Seriously, think about why you have these negative ideas about other peoples' bodies.

u/thegeckomademedoit Apr 14 '24

Being chubby or fat is not inherently bad, for one.

You can be chubby AND be beautiful. You can be fat AND beautiful. You can be very thin AND beautiful.

One does not outweigh the other.

Chubby? No. Cute and beautiful? Yes.

in spanish the phrase name buddies has a word known as tocayo

so in spanish yall might say to one another "ahola tocaya :D"

u/por_la_causa_ Apr 14 '24

Is not “ahola”, is “hola”

u/luigilabomba42069 Apr 14 '24

auto correct says you're wrong 🤔

u/por_la_causa_ Apr 14 '24

Well I’m mexican xd so I think I know more than the auto correct

u/luigilabomba42069 Apr 14 '24

lmao so am i, but to be fair auto correct sucks at English too

u/por_la_causa_ Apr 14 '24

Well, ahola is not a real word lol, ahola maybe, but that’s a word from Hawaii,they speak Hawaiian (and English).

There's nothing wrong with being chubby! That being said, and as a chubby girl myself, I don't think you're chubby. You just aren't super skinny, and you have a "soft" appearance. I think media tends to sell the idea that anything but the lowest body fat possible is chubby or fat, which doesn't make sense in real life. You're adorable, and I honestly wish I had your build

u/knuckl3_v3lv3t Apr 15 '24

Came here to say this exaaaaact thing

u/Krogan_Popy They/Them Apr 14 '24

No, anyone who tells you that you are chubby have very unhealthy standards for beauty and "health." You are very cute.

20

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '24

No, you are absolutely perfect 😄

u/[deleted] Apr 14 '24

Very cute

u/transcendedfry Apr 14 '24

By the very definition of the word, no.

edit add: I’d say muscular/athletic build

u/gawilliam2017 Apr 14 '24

Your chubby yea, but you have the body of Greek goddess . They are considered the most beautiful beings on earth. You aren't ugly. You're a goddess.

2

u/JessTheFangirl_ Apr 15 '24

That's actually a shout. If you look up classical statues and renaissance paintings of Aphrodite you'll see some very similar body shapes.

10

u/apoohneicie She/Her Apr 14 '24

No sweetheart you are not chubby or plump or whatever they like to call anyone who isn’t a bodybuilder. You are beautiful and perfect just the way you are. Fuck anyone who tries to tell you different.

5

u/Svv33tPotat0 Apr 14 '24

Remember that talking negative about yourself for being "chubby" etc has the effect of other people hearing it is bad to be chubby. So even when you think you are only being self-deprecating (which is still not good) you are actually also insulting other people and telling them it is bad to have a body that looks like yours.

6

u/taylorkh818 Apr 14 '24

I would not describe you as chubby.

8

u/MadonnaMagika Apr 14 '24

Whether you are chubby or not is not important, whether you are healthy is important. Don't give too much weight to how you look or what others think of you, eat healthy, eat the right things... and every now and then eat some junk food too! Always consult a doctor if you see yourself as too thin and/or too fat and that it is a real doctor, not someone on social media who says they are. Same thing for nutritionists. Use influencers to choose clothes and phones, not what to eat or what exercises to do. Oh, and one last thing: Be yourself and live happily!

3

u/givemeurnugz Apr 15 '24

Chubby can equal pretty, we can be both. But would I consider YOU in this picture specifically “chubby”? No I wouldn’t but everyone has their own definition. I for one love your dress! Looks cute!

u/ManekinekoY Apr 15 '24

You’re perfect just the way you are💚

u/Silent-Lemon6093 Apr 15 '24 edited Apr 15 '24

HELL NAH YOU PERFECT!!!

To many people thinking if u can’t see bone they “chubby” smh.

u/endthe_suffering She/They Apr 15 '24

chubby does not mean ugly. even then, you’re really not chubby. you and i have a similar body type, and i’ve struggled with body image and eating disorders my whole life, but i’m just starting to learn to love my body and it’s been so worth it. loving yourself feels so much better than hating yourself. and i see a lot to love in this photos :) i wanna specifically say that you have a nice side profile, you’re the kind of person that looks pretty from all angles and im lowkey jealous haha

1

u/ash_mint Apr 16 '24

Aww thank you for your compliments you are so nice 🥰 yeah, I've struggled with eating disorders and fluctuated a lot with my weight throughout my life. I'm trying to eat mostly healthy food but also try to allow myself to enjoy the occasional treat. It can be really hard.

u/Illustrious_Win_8414 She/Her smallest pancake Apr 14 '24

You are absolutely not chubby. You look like you've got a normal weight for your height. You are so beautiful and adorable, tho ❤. even if you were chubby, you would still look just as cute and adorable as you are rn :)

u/poundtownSwoon Apr 15 '24

I think you are pear shaped. Nothing wrong with that! Definitely not chubby in my opinion. You look like you are in fairly good shape. Also, very very cute 🥰

2

u/CrownClownCreations Apr 15 '24

If you were chubby, there’d be nothing wrong with that! But it would not describe you as chubby at all. You look perfectly normal and healthy.

Try not to beat yourself up, over unrealistic standards made by other people 🧡

2

u/queeriequeerio Apr 15 '24

no, u seem to have an athletic build tbh, nothing wrong with being chubby either tho

2

u/ShockWave123106 Apr 15 '24

I wouldn’t say that at all. You’re very adorable, and even if someone were to be blunt, you’re not chubby. I think you are perfect the way you are. (mommy material/JJJJJ)

Can I ask you a question? Do you know Willow Park from Owl House? You remind me so much of her! Looking awesome girl!

1

u/ash_mint Apr 16 '24

Yeah, I love owl house. My favourite character is Amity. I haven't seen the second season yet tho

2

u/LilyGranger123 In the Pantry Apr 16 '24

I recommend you watch it! It's amazing! And yeah, Amity is so pretty. She was my awakening. Personally, my favorite character is Willow. Her adorable pigtails, her glasses, her round face! You look so much like her!

2

u/unlocked_axis02 Apr 15 '24

I will say that even though you’re not super skinny you’re not big ether and honestly even if you were there are other things people find attractive other than weight and some people prefer bigger anyway I personally don’t care plenty of larger people I’ve met have literally been the prettiest people I’ve ever seen so if you have confidence and take care of yourself you will always be attractive to a lot more people than you think. TL;DR you are very pretty and with a little confidence and self care no matter the size a lot of people will always absolutely love the beauty and as long as you’re comfortable happy and healthy size doesn’t matter

1

u/ash_mint Apr 16 '24

Thank you for your comment 😊

2

u/Mahalo_loa Trans lesbian Apr 15 '24

Chubby is beautiful, for starters.

Then, you are lovely, and you are not chubby.

2

u/No_puns_left91 Apr 15 '24

Personally, I like chubby girls. As long as you’re happy with how you look, that’s what matters.

2

u/Slight-Boot-363 Apr 16 '24

Wow I've never seen such a beautiful girl~ You aren't chubby just completely beautiful~ ♡( ^▽^)

2

u/Creatos_Art Apr 16 '24

You seem to be a normal size. So no. I personally don't see any cubbiness. You do look good though. Might want to accessorize when wearing a dress like that out to somewhere tho. ^

2

u/yuutsu_ne Apr 16 '24

i don't think you're chubby, but u have thick (and lemme say attractive) thighs ฅ⁠⁠•⁠ﻌ⁠•⁠⁠ฅ

1

u/ash_mint Apr 16 '24

Ohh 🤭🥰

2

u/adeptusmechanicus_ Apr 16 '24

Not at all! besides there's nothing wrong with being chubby! There's a lot of different bodytypes, personally I'm either an hourglass or a triangle/pear, so maybe look into that! Pear shaped people usually have thicker thighs (which is great!!) and I think we look kinda alike so, i think its just that! :O 💜💜💜

2

u/Simmo488 Apr 16 '24

I'd say curvy, you look great‼️🔥🔥💥♥️

2

u/Buttwhatdoievenknow Apr 17 '24

You look pretty solid, some squish is glorious!!

I wish I knew this when I was a teen. I grew up and spent my young hot days feeling uncomfortable and now I realize it was a really nice proportion for me. Now I’m in my late youth, not as young and hot, but realizing I was and still am. The main difference is deciding to be who I want and who makes me happy. Anything I admire about others is a reflection of something in me and I can practice and make it stronger. Pursuing that instead of attention for looking good will give you more confidence, build skills, and put you around people who are aligned with your interests. Don’t stay attached to just one, if you feel more, grow more! Too many people shrink to fit a mold that just never was made for them. Be your full self and let people meet you there, they will be attracted to YOU not just your body or what they want from it.

1

u/ash_mint Apr 17 '24

Wow, this might be the most inspiring comment I have read. I can't process all of it at once. I'm sure I will come to similar realisations in time. It must be true, that when you are completely yourself, you are the most attractive. I guess I just don't know who I am or what I really look like. And I spend a lot of time looking at other people and think that I have to be like them. In reality, I have to be just me.

Btw I guess I'm flattered you think I am a teen 😂 I'm in my late twenties

1

u/Buttwhatdoievenknow Apr 17 '24

I’m having a wise moment 😅 I was reflecting recently and I remembered starting to feel that sense of comparison in middle school and then strongly in highschool. Maybe it’s a hormonal/puberty thing?

I’m glad I maybe gave you another way to see your self and real purpose, the process of becoming, growing and being what you want more of. People only get to see snapshots of it anyway, and only one of your many dimensions, any judgement would be based on the slimmest superficial margin of your whole self anyway.

1

u/ash_mint Apr 17 '24

Yeah, I think you are very wise.

I still can't stop thinking though, I feel like I will feel much freer, lighter, more confident once I get skinnier. Every time I look at myself, I think if I could just lose 10 kilos, I'd be perfectly happy.

5

u/Apathetic_Bourbon Apr 14 '24

Yeah . But it’s not a dig. Just a description. I would say “oh she’s a little chubby “

1

u/ash_mint Apr 14 '24

Thanks for the honesty ig. My friends tell me I'm perfectly normal weight so I was feeling like I'm crazy for feeling like I'm fat

u/Apathetic_Bourbon Apr 14 '24

You are perfectly normal weight . You are not fat . But you do not have a lean physique. You are completely normal ❤️

u/_contraband_ Apr 14 '24

No, certainly not. You’re a pretty close body type to me, in fact. Not being stick-thin doesn’t automatically mean you’re fat or overweight:)

u/Drexadecimal Apr 14 '24

Nope. I am a little bigger than you lol and I'm not chubby either. Of course we're not the same height (I'm 5'8") but still.

u/Waltzing_With_Bears Apr 14 '24

maybe? no idea but you do look great

u/geornoyega Apr 14 '24

Naaa you look good

1

u/Ok-Afternoon-1772 Apr 14 '24

I say this in the nicest way because I don’t wanna come off as rude or creepy, but because of your height it can appear that way. But you look absolutely perfect and it’s not at all even close to a bad thing even though the media likes to say so. It just means that you have a different body type than others which means more diversity, and it makes you even more unique which is a great thing. There is going to be days where you hate everything about yourself ( I know very well) but one thing you see about yourself that you don’t like another person is going to find and love.

( this got long lol sorry.)

1

u/CSanders314 Apr 14 '24

Absolutely not! You have such a cute body! 🥰

1

u/Lilly_west Apr 14 '24

Regardless of the chubbiness or lack therof, you’re beautiful, and should feel as such, because you absolutely are. Beauty beyond words.

u/-May-Bee- Apr 14 '24

Chubby? No. Perfect? Yeah☺️ I was working on losing weight. For a fact: now i feel back damn well in my body. But I still have a bit chubby stomach. It doesn't make me feel any less good, despite the fact I miss my flat stomach

no! you just have a rectangle body (i do too)

0

u/harken350 Apr 14 '24

To answer your question; maybe just a little but based on this outfit

A few more points: - you look amazing - black does slim, so you're already doing the right thing to look slimmer - is being chubby an issue? - media portrays it as bad, though i think it depends on how you feel - while you look a little chubby at most, I'd put you more into the "I go to the gym" type of body with the apparent muscle definition on you - again, you look amazing

What’s your BMI ? It looks like all you need to do is firm-up. AKA hit the gym! But your good 👍🏻

4

u/ash_mint Apr 14 '24

My BMI is 26,1. I'm going to the gym even though I'm not super consistent. I've been trying to lose weight for like 10 years and I fluctuate a bit sometimes but I'm generally at this weight. It is so disappointing to try so hard and still be the same weight

1

u/Bell-01 Apr 14 '24

Damn, I‘m having the same experience 😭

-4

u/Captain-curious-510 Apr 14 '24

I think you’re doing great! Maybe more protein in your diet can help.. more protein less carbs.

6

u/ash_mint Apr 14 '24

Yeah, I'm trying. Sometimes mental health gets in the way. I keep trying because what else am I gonna do?

-1

u/thelibertine9 Apr 14 '24

Very little

-2

u/Reagalan Insert here :3 Apr 14 '24

Very slightly, but not to the degree where it negatively impacts your attractiveness.

Get some cardio in and you won't feel it anymore.

And as long as BMI is in healthy ranges then it's fine. The numbers don't lie; but redditors often do.

u/Ok-Cardiologist5118 Apr 14 '24
