Every1 i asked said since i weight 178 and am 5'7 tall then i should be plus size model. i thinl ppl will laugh at me. Ppl say that Tyra Banks was a plus size model but I dont no. If i lost about 40 or 50 pounds would be considered plus size or average size and i do have a lot of curves

You go girl, it sure would be refreshing to see a "real person" on a magazine. I'm sure tired of seeing those skinny, flawless, air brushed girls on the magazines and on tv I might ad, give us a break pleeeeeze!
Focus on what you want and go get it girl, laugh back, hold your head up and go!

Models go by sizes, not necessarily weight. Weighing 178 and being 5'7 does not qualify you to be a plus sized model. In order to be a plus size model in most agencies you MUST be at least a size 12, and be at least 5'9 without any type of shoe on.
I know all of this because I am 5'11 and I weigh 165- I thought I could be a plus size model, but I can't because I am not at least a size 12.
Some places may take a chance on you if you have a certain "look," so my best advice to you is get some professional head and body shots, and just try your luck. Good luck!

What clothes size are you? Plus size modelling is usually size 12 and above. I think Tyra was a size 10, but she is so tall, she still looks thin lol. You don't need to lose weight to be a plus size model. If you want to be a regular model, then you could consider losing weight. HTH : )

Forget it girl!!! If you are pretty enough to even be concidered as a model then bin the whole weight thing.... isn't christina aguilera promoting larger women???
Personally i think its sooooo damaging to women this whole low weight thing its bolox!!!
Personally i think larger women are far far more attractive!!
dont get me wrong im not and "extremist" with my ideal woman just about to be hoisted out of her bed by the fire service!
Forget the weight.
Enjoy living.
