General

i personally dont consider myself a BBW (yet ^^)

so how much do you guys think i would have to gain to be considered a BBW ?

I don't think there's any official guidelines posted anywhere. The next best thing I can really do is just share some observations over the years.

I know some might consider categories of pornography, but I would not. Very often, the categories are incorrectly applied.

As far as I can tell, assuming average height (give or take a few inches or centimeters), it seems the defacto minimum is at least 200 lbs, but that I don't often see the term applied to women under about 220.5 lbs or so.

I know, 220.5 sounds oddly arbitrary, until you realize it's not. Or well, it is arbitrary but not oddly arbitrary. You see, 100 kgs is about 220.5 lbs.

So, a longer term goal of exceeding 100 kgs might be a good goal to shoot for.

200 lbs is a nice milestone, which is around 90.8 kgs. But you know, there's also a wonder psychological milestone about 100 kgs, where you cross the barrier into 3 digits, and how you will always need 3 digits to represent that.

This is pretty much just my opinion, but I think it's not too far off of what most folks would probably say.

I would guess, just from your height, around 220, 230? Depends how the fat is distributed.

its 250 for bbw
400 ssbbw
600+ for ussbbw

I think that you should double an amount of fat on your belly... than you are a bbw for sure Imagine that! More doughnuts and pastries every day and no excercising!

I also think that these values ​​and standards fit best and I have only recently been able to describe myself as an SSBBW since I broke the 400 lbs mark

jackita 》》, I don’t think it’s about weight but BMI. In my opinion bbw starts at 30 bmi(obese) then >35bmi sbbw and so on

According to your calculations, I would otherwise have been an SSBBW back in my youth at 220 lbs. And that doesn't fit at all.

I think it’s a mental thing. It’s about how you feel more than any number or measurement

The criteria is more approximate than precise. But indeed it’s a texture thing as well. When the boobs and belly start to jiggle with extra volume, it’s really a matter of degree after that.

I know for sure 400 plus is ssbbw and 600 plus is ussbbw. It can be hard distinguishing between plus size and bbw. I'd say bbw is classed as a size 18/20 and over. This is because mainstream plus size fashion modelling agents class this as "plus size" and doesn't hire anyone over that size (unless you're a celebrity already to promote them) as in their eyes it's more than plus size.

300 pounds is BBW, 350 pounds is SSBBW, 750 pounds is USSBBW
