Women biologically need to weigh more they have extra fat to be able to bear children Tyra is an inspiration to all those little girls who have been called fat. that impacts the media have on young girls is horrible they begin to think at the age of about 5 they are fat. people with a little extra weight are fat now thats not right most of the time the super skinny people arent healthy either! YOU GO TYRA!

I would like to see how the people who critisized her carry themselves, cause there is no one who carries themselves more beautifully and with more confidence then Tyra! It does not mean that because you are big, that you are unhealthy! It is obvious that Tyra is toned. Some people weigh under 120 pounds, and it is mazing to see all the crap that they eat each day!!! They are the unhealthy ones! Tyra is an inspiration! Because of her I LOVE my booty! And I know that I have a healthy lifestyle!!!!

She is a woman now so I celebrate her being a woman and accepting her body image.She is in no way fat like some people say she is. We all cannot stay the same size forever. I remember just a few years ago, I was at 148 pounds and now my weight flunctuates from 155-160 at 5’8 and I feel good. I’ve filled out in the right places and so has Tyra. Go Girl. You look soo good!

But people always tell me I look 115 pounds. And I’m not.. People don’t seem to realize that your weight goes UP as you grow taller. You look amazing, though. And seeing how confident you can be, while looking like a real woman is truly admirable. Thanks.

On 21 Jun 2007, Dr wrote: Tyra, at 5’10, I do not believe 161 is so bad. I am glad to see you happy. However, I am concerned about your health. I think 140-145 is good depending on how much is muscle and what not. The scale gives you numbers. there are two things that are more important. One, what your doctor says, and two, what you see when you look in the mirror.

On 13 Jun 2007, greg wrote: Tyra (and other women complaining about body image), Body image is not simply what you look like. If one has a poor body image (they are fat), it shows that they cannot/do not have the mental ability to respect themselves. So, when a guy sees that, he not only cringes at the ugliness of the body, but thinks, “If that girl/woman can’t even respect herself, how can she respect me?” Tyra, you say that you eat junk food like twinkies all the time and you hate exercise. Well, that shows that you do not care about your body. Women, it’s not what you look like that matters. It’s the cause of your poor body image (not caring about yourself) that turns a guy off.

You’re so secure with yourself, and it makes me realize how rediculous the Media and EVERYONE is getting about weight issues. All I ever see in magazines, on Tv, and even billboards and advertisements are skinny sticks, which is being imprinted onto people my age’s minds. It’s rediculous. It’s barbaric. It needs to be stopped. People who say you’re fat are rediculous. You’re gorgeous, and anyone who can’t see it needs to be beaten up, or they at least need a serious reality check, to understand that nobody really looks like the sticks in the pictures. You’ve really helped and influenced me. You’ve helped me realize that as being a 15 year old girl, I don’t have to look like…i don’t know, Paris Hilton to be considered gorgeous. I love myself just the way I am. I have a friend who has an eating disorder, and it breaks my heart that she can’t see how beautiful she really is. Way to go Tyra, you’ve made my day! xo
