So i'm currently at 18.5 bmi (because of recovery ew), but in february i'll be able to lose weight again and currently i've been obsessing with Britney Manson's body. it's not too sick, not too healthy, is just perfect to start with.

I'm guessing her bmi may be around 16/15s but i'm not sure, what do you guys think? do you guys like her?

lowest i’d say 17, highest 18. first pic looks stretched, posing, angles, platform boots !!!! going off of the second pic, her hipbones don’t stick out too much, so her weight doesn’t seem very very low. also some people’s collarbones stick out at higher weights so i don’t feel like that is reliable to go off of. last pic could be posing next to someone shorter / bigger, angles, clothing, etc.

but i could also be very far off so take it with a grain of salt !

omg good observation, I had focused more on the arms, because there are people who, even at very low weights, their legs don't immediately become anorexic thin, mine only got very thin from bmi 14 down.
but thank you, you made good points🫶🏻

I love Britney, but I don't believe she's uw. Her body composition will be hard to match for AFAB people because she's AMAB... she has quite a bit of muscle. I hope this doesn't sound insensitive, I have a trans brother and transfem and transmasc best friends. Sometimes they just naturally have different body comps and figures even well into their transition. I'd kill to look like Britney but I think it's important to note that if you're AFAB and short it would be hard to look similar to her.

no that doesn't sound insensitive at all, is just facts!
I'm naturally below average in terms of weight for people my age and when I had a bmi of 16 (when i was pre anorexic) people said I looked vey sick and i thought i looked normal?😭 and i'm very short too, so i think it depends on person to person. I would say that my problem is that almost all my thinspos/bonespo are AMAB-

I’m a bmi of 17.2, and granted I’m only 5’5.5 (definitely shorter than her, taller people look skinnier) and people say I’m dysmorphic, but I do not look like that (I wish!) so I wouldn’t say shes a bmi of 17. Id personally guess she’s 15-16 as well, I think anorexia gives some people a skewed perception of others bodies 😅
