Weight Description Template 1
Body-size description check Purpose: [x] Observable fact: [x] Relevant context: [clothing / scale / movement / measurement] Unjustified inference removed: [x] Final wording: [x]
Start with structure, then replace every placeholder with information that is true, relevant, and natural for your context. These templates are intentionally skeletal so your final writing does not sound mass-produced.
A strong weight description is respectful, specific to the writing purpose, and proportionate to the scene. It distinguishes body size from body shape, strength, health, and character traits; avoids demeaning comparisons; and uses exact measurements only when the genre or task genuinely calls for them.
