perfect weight for cosplay?

No.4408844 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Hi everyone~

I'm an overweight female, 5'2, 180. I've been dieting/excersizing a lot the past week especially and making positive strides in my health. I don't have any rolls, my stomach is actually pretty lean. I keep all my weight in my thighs/ass. Good for sex, not so much for anything else.

I'm planning on cosplaying a character in a shoerter dress (about 3 in above the knee) in a few months?, and I'm just wondering what a good goal weight is? I feel like I could lose 10 lb a month (total of 40-50 or so), but that'd bring my weight down to 140/135. I feel like this is still too high for some expectations.

I just really want to do the character and the cosplay justice and I don't want to embarrass myself and get posted here and be made fun of for being "too fat" to cosplay.
More geared towards /cgl/ than /fit/, I'm not looking for diet/excersize advice, I've got that down, I'm more looking to ask what your ideal cosplayer's body type would look like. How big is TOO BIG?

Picture is me, at about 155-160 LBS. I'm 5'2, so take that into conscideration.
THANK YOU :3
