I understand that you are over waight. BUT! eating fatty foods just makes it wers and makes you look wers
It makes you look like you dont care that you are over waght and im shur you do! I think you should get over the fact that your over waight,Becouse you all redy know that! So DONT! sob over it! Thats just a wayst of time! Do somthen aboute it! And dont let peaple get to you! Let them know that ther teezing dousnt bothers you or els thay will keep doing it!. Next time it happens hold your head up high and look the uthr way Be the smarter person!you would look beter holding a water jug then a candy bar, Dont you think? start going outside more even if you dont want to!,Start eating helthy foods even if you dont like it! Drink tuns of water every day, Becouse baleave me its werth it! And dont SLACK OFF ETHER! you got to TRY to lose waight,OK! try your hardist and never give up and yull make it , it will take a wile But you can do it! I belive in you!

Start: 147 lb, Today: 170 lb - I've gained a lot of weight over the summer and i need help in losing it. At the end of school i weighed 147lb which is a little heavy but i was fine with it, now i've shot up to 170lbs because i've been lazy over the summer. i don't really wanna have to get back into exersicing so...any ideas?

Yah hun, excersizing and eating right is the ONLY way to loose weight. I know it sucks right? Haha, but then there's lypo! But I doubt you'd do that. And anorexia doesnt work (refer to my post), so really, its not that hard. Take 20-30 mins (i do 40 minutes) and just jog. If you get tired, walk briskly. Cardio is the ultimate BEST way to burn fat. I used to HATE runnng, i was the slowest runner EVER. But if lossing weight is something you truly want, then youll do whatever it takes. And if you're not willing to work a little for a 1/2 hour a day, then maybe looosing weight isnt something you really want? Yaknow?

Its your choice when you eat, so you have to be STRONG. Just say NO . :) I'm serious, though. Just east something healthy like an apple when you have to eat something. Its hard, but only you can help yourself. Go for a walk if you are tempted, or do jumping jacks, or watch TV or anything that helps you not eat. Good luck

I eat when I am depressed, bored, happy and it seems Im additcited to it. I understand that I have a problem with emotinal eating and binging(eating everything sight). I've tried strict diets, eating healthier and cutting portions of food I like in half but I cant stay on a diet for long becasue I just love food. Any tips on how to break this cycle of emotional eating and my attachment to food?ps- I do exercise 4 times a week by riding my bike for an hour

I know how it feels to eat due to emotional issues. That is how I gained the weight myself. I am afraid that there is no "cure" for emotional eating. Just control. You would be surprised at the number of people on this board who are fighting unbelievable opstacles in their life. Everyone can lose weight despite lifes twists and turns. You will have to face whatever is getting in your way or else things will never change. You need to sit down and ask yourself which is more important - that cookie in your hand, or you being happy. And I am here to tell you that nothing is better than being happy. Pretend you are all grown up and you are your idle weight - now imagine what you would say to yourself right now...would you say "keep being unhappy" or "that one bag of chips isn't going to change anything"? Or would you say "Today is the day your life changes for ever"? Only you can... (view more)I know how it feels to eat due to emotional issues. That is how I gained the weight myself.

i guess it depends on your desire to change. does eating really make you feel good? dont you feel sick after eating a lot? you can definetly lose weight with effort, but you first need to turn from your eating habits. do you honestly want all that food? get a different mindset and start from there. ;-) good luck.

if any one in here thinks they cant lose weight that is so not true i did . i lost 10 pounds in 4 weeks and the only reason why i did that was after i saw my nutritionist and she put me on a diet that was not as strict as most and i walked every day and i lost 10 pounds and i know any one can do. do it for yourself not for anyone else.

Ht. 5'3", Today: 195 lb (BMI %tile: 98) - Hey guys. I'm 16, 5'3" and 195lbs. I know scary huh?! I've always known I was overweight, but last night I was in a musical. I had a solo and when the camera zoomed in on me I was embarassed to be watching myself. I've recently joined Curves gym. It's so much fun, but it's hard to get out there 3 times a week. I also need to change the way I'm eating. My mom is also overweight and wants to lose weight with me. I'm trying to convince her to join weight watchers. Does anyone know if the program is good? I would also really like an accountability partner if anyone is interested. My AIM sn is Konstantine52. or email me at Bubblz05@hotmail.com*~*Alex*~*

Start slow. dont try to do too much at once or change drastically. start by eating different things, healthier things. i dont sugest running, it may be too hard on ur knees but try to walk a little, even if its only a block. try not to feel bad. yes, you got urself in this but now u are getting urself out and b proud of that. human bodies werent made to lose weight. in the past losing weight was very bad because u could die of starvation. u have to try to trick ur body into losing weight slowly. check with a doctor on what else u can do. ur not disgusting and ugly. keep in mind that u won't b like this forever if u really dont want too. and if u want to eat something fatty ask urself if u really want it and remind urself how proud ull b when u didnt eat it later.
