I feel really ashamed for posting this question, but I'm 18f and I've critiqued my body for so long everyday that I just don't even know if I look skinny or good anymore. It's so frustrating, I don't know if I'm beach ready yet. help?

When I see a girl so skinny she looks like a bag of skin on bones, I wanna puke. A healthy body fat for women is 20% or less, but women need more body fat than men for multiple reasons. 15-20% body fat is good. So find out what your body fat is, if it's in that range, I can guarantee you will be a knock out at the beach. [ Myrrha's advice column | Ask Myrrha A Question ]
