ayu's weight,,,

[WoWee]

I used the words ''fat'' because chu-lps called her fat,
I dont think she is fat at all!!! She is slim for here age and height!!
An as is ayed before, it is probalby musceles

[AngelSenshi]

Are you aware of what overweight actually is? Hell, are you aware of what fat actually is?

I wouldn't say she's fat; I'd say she has a bit more meat on her bones than she used to but that can easily be muscle and a result of her working out. Since around 2006/2007 she's worked out a lot more than she used to, working out does a lot to the body.

.....


If ayu is "fat", i want to be "fat" like her.

Same with me!

[mobius]

lol, Ayu fat?? I don't really see it.

I think she looks great.

Maybe its costumes she's wearing at the concerts makes her look thick -shrugs-

But in the latest PV's she looks fine.

[hsienko]

I don't think she's fat. She did gain weight around '08 though. It's really noticable during the a-nation performances.

[Cherry Dynamite]

LOL She's not overweight at all.... Overweight for her height is like 170 pounds!
You can't call her fat unless you're size zero, and I'm quite sure you aren't.

[JackieRos]

^O.o that's not overweight either
oh wait for her height? yeah
but some weight can be muscle weight

Do you guys think she's still 88lbs (40kg)?
sometimes she looks super skinny and sometimes she looks normal.

Even though she's skinny she has some nice thick legs yum

[PEARL]

i think during a nation 08 she looks abit fat but other than that i think its perfectly all right since you tend to look thiner in real life than on screen

[Crystal_Ageha]

Oh my ****ing God, this made me seriously very angry.

Ayu has NEVER, EVER in her entire life (from what we've seen--certainly not in her entire career) been even close to "fat". Not even close to overweight. That "fat" on her arms you're seeing? It's what a healthy woman's arms really look when they aren't anorexic or being photoshopped, okay?
This is not only insulting to Ayumi, but to every single girl who is "fat" like she is. I'm a little bigger than Ayu is, so I must be obese, right?
Seriously, people like you need to learn that adults are not supposed to weigh seventy pounds or some ****. Even for a tiny Asian girl, it's still average, and perfectly normal, to weigh over a hundred pounds. If you think looking like a pile of bones is attractive, then go for it. It gives me something to laugh at when I see you walking down the street. Just leave us healthy people out of it.

I really doubt she's 88 pounds... She hasn't looked that skinny since...Duty era or before, probably.
And yes, nice legs. *high fives*


Oh, and just for the record, according to BMI (which isn't the best thing to look at, I know, but it does give us an average), Ayumi can weigh up to about 59kg/130lb to be in the "healthy" weight for her height...... She's far from going over that, I'm sure. She can't weigh more than 52kg/115lb, probably at most, even with this *sarcasm* awful weight gain */sarcasm* she's had.

how bout ur opinion,,,,

who cares dumb comment

[marekcarey]

some people must be really bored, when they care about things like these...

[yamadashun]

she has averagely over 30 concerts to perform each year, and she needs more energy to cope with them.

i don't call her fat. she is healthy this way.

[Diana]

She didn't gain too much weight if she did... probably a kg or two which is not much considering her age. She has, I dunno.. 45kg max I guess also that she is working out so those are muscles not fat
I don't think she is too fat :O

Sometimes she gains a bit of weight in the arms and face but she isn't fat or overweight by a loooonnnngggg shot!!!
She is healthy and that's all that matters!

[Kazeyomi]

:| well if she's fat I'm obese.

She gained weight in a good way lol.
The body changes during ages, during her early twenties she was pretty skinny but then she has gained some curves.
I mean she's not fat or overweight, she just looks like an adult woman.
That's bad? That's so bad to looks like a woman and not like an underage anorexic girl?

Maybe I'm rude, but that kind of dumb comments annoying me srsly.

[PoetGirl]

I really hope u r kiddin, or else Im gonna worry for you @_@

[freedreamer]

HUh? tour pics?..It's just the costume..lol..

[fantaisie.sign]

Perhaps chu-lips is judging based on the East Asian standards of what's "fat" and what's "skinny"...? To my understanding, the Japanese and Korean ideal for women's body weight tends to be much, much leaner than the Western ideal, partly because their body frames are naturally smaller. What the West considers borderline underweight is considered normal in the East. Just look at all the pressure on Asian celebrities to be stick thin and how they're killing themselves to meet society's unhealthy demands on them.

Ayu's weight is perfectly fine and is nowhere near being fat. Sure she might not fit everyone's standard of skinniness, but she's healthy and that's what matters. Hearing people criticize a possibly underweight person as being "fat" is part of the reason why so many teens and young women have body image issues today.

Absolutely.

[JackieRos]

^yes is very very different
like some western girls weight like 80lbs and they look anorexic but
asian girls who weight 80lbs look healthy

I think she might be 115lbs pounds or a little less

she's not fat shes miles miles and miles away from that

[Crystal_Ageha]

^ Like I said, probably 115 at the most. You're probably right - a little under that. 'Cause I know I'm about 120, but I have bigger boobs and a much bigger ass than she does. XD So I assume she's around 50kg/110lb. Which is perfectly normal, even for a Japanese girl.

A lot of Asian countries do have a different BMI, which does lower the groupings by a few points compared to most other places. But, from what I've seen, they only lower it about two points. And two points is still about 5kg/10lb to work with.
Also, according to a more Asian-fit BMI that uses 23 as the limit of "healthy", I'm still in that range. I'm at the end, granted, lol.... But even with my bubble butt and thunder thighs, I'm there! ^.^' That means Ayu is perfectly okay, even taken by those standards.
