No one asked for your opinion scale!

Can't believe I'm going to ask this on FJ of all sites, but is 120 for a five foot five girl good or bad?

op u so fat

Story time: So I'm nowhere near obese--despite being American--but I am a bit doughier than I'd like to be. At the start of the school year, I was about 200 lbs--which isn't all that bad, 'cause I'm a big hunka' man, and my ideal body weight is around 190 (or lower, of course)--but it was still more than I wanted to be. So I started even lifting about 3 times a week on a relatively lax work out routine--nothing too intense, just enough to get the good juices flowin'. My weight started to go up--due to all those muskely muscles--to about 210. And then, after a couple of months--just last week, in fact--I stepped on the scales to see a glorious, mind-blowing 197. I was ecstatic--I no longer had a "2" in front of my weight. I could see the light at then end of the tunnel--physical fitness and chisel-bodiedness was finally within my reach...

...but then McDonald's happened. I hadn't eaten there in months, but my friend worked there, and he had a giant coupon book filled with wonderful deals. Being college students, we hadn't had such an opportunity to score so much food in eons. We got something like ten meals for the price of one. They even gave us happy meals with My Little Princess toys (or something) because they were out of "boy's toys"--but whatever, they were practically free. We felt like kings...until about 2 minutes later. I didn't even eat that much--just two chicken sandwiches and, like, two little fish bites (which are absolutely disgusting btw, don't ever order them). But my guts felt like they had been turned inside out. We ended up throwing about half the food away (sorry, Africa--although we were probably doing you a favor).

And then, the next day, to top it all off, I step on the scales to see......200.8......
Pic = MFW.

So the moral of the story (also Tl;dr): Never, ever go to McDonald's, no matter how totally awesome the deals sound.

I know I've rambled on a bit, and this story isn't even particularly funny, but thanks for reading.

I watch a lot of sports so I don't think of fat when I see 200lbs

I've never known scales to be so opinionated.
