Losing weight takes time. Wanting to lose weight because 'your friends are skinny and beautiful' isn't a good reason. You need a good reason for yourself to want to lose weight. And when you do, do it the HEALTHY WAY. Unhealthy way won't make you happier when you lose a few pounds, and as soon as you eat a little bit you'll gain all the weight back plus more. It won't be worth it.

You're welcome. And good. Because I started losing weight the 'unhealthy way' 10 years ago and I'm still struggling with eating disorders to this day. I don't want more people to suffer the way I and 2 of my many siblings have.

First off, don't even think of losing weight if it isn't the right, healthy way. You will get no where fast. Start counting calories, you can use

and make sure you are active for 30-60 minutes per day, jog in place, walk outside, use a treadmill or elliptical or go to youtube and search exercise videos. Cut out soda and drink only water. If you make smarter choices about eating and exercise you will lose the weight.

Hey girl who is trying to be beautiful. I have three things to say - and I hope they help.
FIRST: Stop trying to lose weight. Just start being healthy. Eat well and exercise. You should consider a vegetarian diet - check out the Eat to Live diet. It helps people who can't lost weight lose weight like crazy. But more importantly, it makes them among the healthiest people there are. And it's kind to animals and earth, which I think would also help you to feel better.
Second: Honey, you ARE beautiful. You just don't know it. Your size does not determine your beauty. I know that doesn't help though - I've struggled with this all my life and I'm 40. I'm still struggling. So....on to number 3.....
THIRD: Please find a counsellor or therapist or someone to speak with about your self image. I don't want you to experience a life of hurting like I have. Speak to someone -- they can help you to change your self image and re-focus yourself on seeing what is beautiful in you. You have so much to offer. I'll bet your an amazing listener and friend. I bet you are so much fun to be around. I bet you're good at a lot of things. And besides, you know what I've learned in life? Men don't want skinny. But they do want beautiful. And these are two TOTALLY different things.
Even if you go with the diet I suggested, I hope you'll find some emotional help 'cause from what I hear, even if you got skinny, you'd find something in yourself to dislike anyway. And you, my dear, deserve a helluva lot better than that - because you ARE beautiful and amazing and talented and wonderful.
In peace and kindness...candice
