Hi. I'm 24 year old female and I'm not so happy with the way that I look. All my life I have really strong apetite and before I didn’t think about it very much. But, entering my puberty I have gain some extra pounds and now, in my 24th year I really look terrible.
I have never had boyfriend and I think that my overweight problems are only cause of this. I tried some antidepressants but they didn’t help in elevating my mood.
I tried also different diets but none of them helped me.
All this made me very depressed and sometimes I wish I have never been born. What should I do? I was thinking about liposuction as the only treatment!

Hello. I will try to help you with some advices which are primary on psychological bases.
Being overweight is problem of many young people all around the world so you probably know that you are not alone with this problem.
You should never use antidepressant drugs for these kinds of problems, because, when you stop, you will feel even worse.
They cure the symptoms not the problem which caused your depression. Primary problem is overweight.
You should spend more time on searching for some new diets, instead of searching for new operations.
Beside all the things you have probably read about liposuction, you must be aware that this is, at the end, one operation. This will not solve your problems if your eating habits stay the same.

To insist on endurance exercises,like running on the running machine at gym that do help youmake your leg and arm thinner. perseverance! You Can!

Weight gains is almost always caused by a combination of the Poor diet (high in calories and simple carbohydrates) and inactivity. Mental, emotional, or spiritual issues also the factors taking into account.Don't depress!
