Honey, let me just tell you, Im a 6'4" girl, who has always been VERY insecure. Im a recovering annorexic ... I have always had a really poor body image because I am so conspicuous. Im doing a lot better now, Ive taken on the if youve got it, flaunt it attitude :P If people stare, most of them are jealous ... being tall is a GIFT!!!

> Something that has been bugging me for a while is my weight. I'm 5'7 and have always felt that I tower over other people and I feel terribly self concious about it. I tell myself that if I were just slimmer then there would be less of me and then i wouldn't stick out so much. A child walked past me with his mom the other day and said 'that lady is really tall' and I just felt like such a freak. I weigh 133-136 pounds. Do you think if I just lost 10 more pounds i would be a little more inconspicuos (sp?) ? What do you think when you see a tall girl ???
