How should you REALLY look?

Find Your Factory Settings

To find your ideal body size, you need to know what it looks like. For that, take a look at your old yearbooks, not the latest issue of GQ or Vogue.

If you've gained weight as an adult, you can get a relatively accurate picture of what your ideal size should be by thinking about what you looked like when you were 18 (for women) or 21 (for men) -- the age at which your body was metabolically most efficient and when you weren't stapled to an office chair for 60 hours a week.

Most people gain their weight between the ages of 20 and 60; by looking back at photos of yourself when you were between 18 and 21, you'll have a good, though not quite scientific, idea of your "factory settings." It's not perfect, but it's a thumbnail sketch of where you want to be. Think about your waist and shape back then. Ask your parents about their body sizes -- or find pictures of them -- to help give you a good idea of what you're supposed to look like when you look your best. That's your goal.

Kat, looking back at my old pics, I'm the same weight as I was when I was a teen but with bigger hips. It's not the body I'm worried about, it's the face. Ugh!
