Weight loss questions?

I am a girl in my late teens, 5"6. I was 185lbs at my heaviest.
I am now down to 151lbs, my lowest in about a decade, and have no intentions of resorting back to my old ways.

I have three questions to ask:

1. Would I have been considered ‘repulsive and unattractive’ at my biggest?

2. What do you think of my current size? (I don’t like using the BMI calculator, it seems to be off for a lot of people, and rather society’s opinion instead)

3. Do you think I should lose more weight, and if so, how much, considering I’ve hit a plateau at this size, and am struggling to lose more. My current measurements are 40-30-41.

ttc and overweight / obese help?? . .?

i am ttc but am clasified as obese when using a BMI calculator . . we have been trying for almost 3 months with no luck . . i went off the pill on June 15 and had a light period on the 22nd June for 2 days but since then nothing . . i know it can take up to 3 months for the pill to be completely out of your body but im getting a little frustrated as my best friend has gone into labour today and my sister in law is due next month . . every one seems to be pregnant but me . . i am also thinking my weight may be the reason nothing is happening but then i hear stories of many overweight / obese women falling pregnant all the time . . i guess my question is if you are overweight / obese how long did it take you to fall pregnant?

Everyone thinks I'm anorexic–but I'm not!?

I’m about 110 and 5’4" tall. Lots of people are taller than me, and lots of people are shorter than me! Well, I’m pretty weight-obsessed. I toss half my lunch because it’s nasty and eat the other half. I do about 150 sit-ups, 50 jumping jacks, and take a jog almost every day. Friends ask me if I have an eating disorders. I thought–Wow, I’m thin! Now doctors and my friends’ parents are asking me and my mom if I’m anorexic. I don’t look anorexic, I’m fat. when I do the online BMI calculator, I’m about 0.4 points away from underweight, so why do people make such a big deal out of it? What can I do to keep getting healthier without getting everyone all flipped out?
I forgot to say–I’m totally NOT anorexic–nasty (no offense!). I tried it for one day–definitely not my thing. Thanks though for asking about that. I don’t need professional help, though, because I’m NOT anorexic!! And also, I have a bunch of guy friends (pretty common knowledge that most of them have/had crushes on me) are always worrying about me and saying, "Em, you’re not fat, chill." but they’re guys (again, no offense) and they all are totally sweet and adorable, but I can’t take a dude’s advice about how skinny I, a teenage girl, should be.
I forgot to say–I only toss some cookies and some crackers at lunch–not the whole thing. I still eat: an apple, cheese squares, and a couple Oreos. I eat a cereal bar or a small butter croissant for breakfast usually. and for dinner I could have anything from a salad to a hamburger, it just depends. If we do fast food, I usually get a salad, if we eat at home, it’s something normal like spaghetti or pizza. I’m not a HUGE eater, but I have my moments. For Lent I gave up French fries, and it’s been tougher than I thought! I love fattening food, but in large amounts, it just makes me feel guilty.

Are the Australian Army recruit officers strict on weight?

I have my YOU session in a couple of weeks.

I’m fit, I can do 43 push ups, 52 situps and attain a 10.5 on the beep test.

I’m healthy. I have no health problems that I know of, however according to the BMI calculator I am 1kg underweight, I have a very high motabalism, and it’s always been hard for me to put on weight. My BMI is something like 18.4. I am 173cm at 55kg, will this affect my chances of enlisting as a rifleman in the infintry?

Cheers for any knowledge:)
