Garie Beach - AM I FAT? (Pictures included)?

AM I FAT? (Pictures included)?

It's just been winter in Australia here and it's coming into summer now. I've put on a few kilos over the winter.. I feel so gross and depressed. I'm a size 12 now and I use to fit into size 10. My friends are all going to the beach and look amazing, yet I look so average. I need some constructive criticism. I have a few physical disabilities and injuries which means I cannot run or do exercise every day (I need to take 24-48 hours rest between cardio-exercise periods). I enjoy yoga but always seem to forget.. Where do I need to lose the weight? How much? At the moment I'm 175cm/5'9. 70kgs/159lb. I know i'm just within my healthy weight area, but I would like to drop down to low 60s. http://de.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1566ate&s=4 http://de.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=1zgpxkm&s=4 http://de.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=of7uqh&s=4 (Ignore the bikinis I am wearing because they're last summer's) Do you think at the moment I can wear a bikini in public/in front of friends & family.. etc? http://de.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=23qxixc&s=4 http://de.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2eveu03&s=4 http://de.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=mn2liw&s=4 http://de.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=6z0eas&s=4 (I do know I'm never going to be a size 6 or whatever, but I feel I would be happier and healthier as a size 10). I am 19 years old by the way. Yeah i know, it's last season's bikini. I'm going to shop for a new one soon. Thanks.

You are not fat at all!! Far from Fat infact!! I think are just the right size not a stick but then not huge!! Just right!!
No you are not fat. healthy. there is no fat hanging over anywhere so your fine
Perfect weight! Be happy with that
I think with regular clothes you don't look fat at all... I would like to have my stomach flat like that! you pants cut a little bit into your sides, but its not bad at all!! I think maybe you should go for boy short bottoms, just because the bottom of the 2 piece cuts too much into your sides. Also try to find a top with more support... maybe with underwire. I think overall you are NOT fat. If you want get more toned, I recommend Pilates. It works your muscles but also makes you leaner. I used to do Pilates, and stopped... I think I will start again, because it really worked.
YOU ARE NOT FAT....
Hi, You are not Fat. You are a healthy young girl. Enjoy Life
shorties like me (5ft5") wear size 10's. Well, I'm an 8 but i wear tight skinny jeans. I think you look great. Your stomach is flatter than mine. You're tall and shouldn't really worry about not being a size 10.
You're a perfectly healthy weight and you look great. I wish I looked that good! (I'm a full six inches shorter than you, six pounds heavier and a bit more round) You can't run, but can you walk for a decent length? A brisk 20-30 minute walk every day would be a low-impact way to shed a few pounds if you really wanted to.
TAKE heart. More than half the folks answering this question are bigger built than you... Get a swimming costume that will attract attention away from your waist line. Eat less fatty foods and starch and eat more salads. Go enjoy life while you are still able to.
u are sooo not fat. u are perfect
You are not fat, but as you say, you have a little extra on your hips and tummy. Try going vegan , which will curb food cravings.
U r not too fat. Keep it up. Better do all sorts of work as you can not continous, different works to get monvements for all your body parts and muscles.
