- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

Depends what you're calling 'big hips'? Sorry for what's probably a rude question but, as a dude and as a French speaking person, I'm really not sure if you mean you think you're somewhat too fat or just that mother nature gave you some hips/curves that you would rather not have (fancying yourself as somehow flattish than you are, excluding any overweigth question). Depending that, you may still be able to change your... curviness, if that's a word, within reason.
I lost so much weight myself, just by making walking into a daily habit and by eating healthier food, it's hard to imagine.
Also:
They may want whatever, we live in a free world, but you still decide based on what you want for yourself. Don't let anyone decide who you are or what you should look like.
I lost weight myself not because I wanted to become slim or please anyone else (my spouse did not leave me the day I gained weight, nor did she leave me after I lost most of it). I did it the day I realized it was good for me and for my health. Very, very good indeed.
