Ht. 5'11, Wt. 177 - Hey can someone help me? I am always depressed about my weight. I'm not fat, if I Asked anyone they would say no... but also no one would guess that I weigh 177 pounds.. even though I am pretty tall ( 5'11) my boyfriend thinks i'm beautiful and tells me I don't need to lose weight and I'm perfect the way I am ( of course my bf is gonna tell me that right? lol) well even if he does think im perfect.. im not happy.. in fact i'm depressed.. I really want to lose 20 pounds.. I keep resorting to stupid things like starving myself for a week or throwing up, which is stupid i know.. and once i start eating again i get really hungry and overeat since i starved myself... i'm not fat I just want to thin out a little bit. I actually started running like 30 min a day.. but only for like three days.. but i wasnt eating in the day just late at night.. ( which is probably horrible) I heard that eating 3-4 really small meals a day really helps.. I just don't know what to I should eat.. I mean I know what's healthy and what's not I just don't know what I should eat to stay healthy , u know? Gosh, I wish I had a personal trainer who could just eat every meal with me LOL! Will someone please help? I'm so tired of feeling so horrible about myself and having a bad self image.. and going to sleep at night and telling myself I'm not going to eat the next day and then screwing up.. it's so hard to starve myself.. and i know its not healthy so i'm not going to do it anymore.. I would greatly appreciatte it if someone could help me... Thanks, Chloe

For breakfest eat GOOD cerials...not choco puffs or nything like that. Try Honey bunches of oats, a piece of fruit, glass of orange juice, and a multivitamin. for lunch eat cold cuts u know turkey brast, on whole grain breads, cheese if u want, and mustard. mayo will be bad 4 u. dinner eat a lean cuisine. Snacks between can be fruit or yogurt. It's a lifestyle really, if u just diet and lost 20 lbs abd stop your lifestyle you'll most likely gain it back.
