@frances69 Yup! 5'1, 115lbs, and my boobs are 28GG (and that's probably the wrong size as my bras don't fit quite right). The rest of me is "proportional". I hate the back pain and the struggle to find tops that fit correctly.

@yakob123 5'1, 110lbs, and haven't shopped retail in a few years because nothing ever really fits. And shopping in the kids section isn't an option for me because I'm curvy and wear a 28G. It's problematic!

@olagato This is a wonderful reply. To add on my own anecdote to further support this one, I am a little smaller at 5'1 and also a lower weight. I used to also eat between 1200-1600 calories when either sedentary or doing short walks each day. I maintained the same weight and was running a few...

@aliciamoe1 Lifting weights at the gym helped. It stimulated my appetite and I was eating regularly. I also used peanut butter, avocado, etc., to get extra calories. I found it best to learn into my "weird" eating. I didn't feel the urge to eat three meals a day, but instead ate one BIG meal a...

@aliciamoe1 Mind me asking how young you are? I'm 5'1 and was 42kg when I was in my late teens. Struggled massively with weight gain caused by poor appetite and inconsistent eating patterns too!

@yakob123 I could fit into Primark 2XS in 2016. It's 2023 and now nothing in Primark fits me... and I weight 20lbs more!
