    where i live, all the girls i know and like are into looks rather than personality n thats one of the reason why i end up dating people that lives way too far away from me. Im 5ft7 n weight 176 lbs and now im sick of the way i look, i been feeling so bad about myself lately, i broke up with my girlfriend 2 days before my birthday and for once in my life i want to feel good about myself.
    For the last couple of days i been thinking of going to the gym so i could loose weight, it would cost me £80. I been trying to get into diets and do exercises at home but i just cant find the motivation! i dont know what to do anymore, im so unhappy with the way i look and i feel like crap so ya know... being 18 and weight 176 lbs is not a really cool thing.

    Could someone please help me with what i should do, any good websites with exercises or stuff like that?

    i need your help :)

    eat healthy - don't crash diet or so any other stupid diet. i used to starve myself, like until i couldn't move i was so weak until my doctor told that your body will use your lean muscle mass before your fat, and then you will put that back on as fat when you eat again. have a healthy diet and walk everyday.
    not all girls are superficial, i''m not but i see your point. most girls i know are, and this is why i don't get on with them.
    take care,
    morna

    p.s. some women (like my sister and me)prefer larger men.

    Start feeling good about yourself other than about your looks, start feeling positive and having this positive attitude should help motivate you in your health style, as Morna rightly said, eat healthy, a good balanced diet, go to the gym, take a gym buddy so you don’t give up, drink lots of water, the best thing I like is a lot of energetic walking, good for your lungs and fitness, try and walk instead of using transport or a bicycle, and listen to motivating music whilst doing so.

    Hey man, I know how you feel. I'm 6 foot and only 120 pounds, and I sure as hell aren't having any better luck than you! Just keep your chin up, you'll find someone someday!

    try www.weightwatchers.com. I used that after I had kids and it held my hand through the whole losing weight process and made it easy. I lost alot of weight from it. Good luck...


    oh and jeffery he prob broke up w/ his gf because he was only with her because he didn't want to feel lonely and felt not worthy of better anymore... I was like that when I was chunky... I don't know maybe I'm wrong but thats what I thought he meant.

    He was probably staying with this girlfriend due to not wanting to feel alone, to feel like he at least had someone there for him.

    Peace.

    To the TheUsualOne18, darling, you need to learn to love yourself for who you are, and others will love you in return. Women, and men alike, are attracted to confidence. If you feel good about yourself, if you love yourself, it shows. If these women can't see the real person you are inside, then they're not worth your time anyway.

    There is also nothing wrong with wanting to change your lifestyle and become a more healthy person. But you need to do it for YOURSELF, not them.

    Changing an unhealthy lifestyle takes a lot of self-discipline at first, but once you truly change your ways, you more than likely won't want to go back.

    If you are looking to lose weight, be sure to drink lots of water. Do research and find recipes for healthy things that you would like to try, or, play around with your favorite foods and lighten them up. You need to cut out fast-food if you eat it. If you do happen to go for a fast-food run, opt for a grilled chicken sandwich, it will have less fat and calories than something that has been breaded.

    Try a new fruit and/or vegetable each day and have set times for your meals and for your snacks, so you don't do any "mindless munching". Be active, even if you just start out by, if you drive a car, parking in the spot furthest away from the store and walking the distance. Use the stairs instead of the elevator. Little things like that can add up the steps that you take in a day. Once you get active, you'll more than likely enjoy how your body feels from the activity. I know that if I eat crappy and I sit around all day, I end up feeling horrible, so I rarely do that. You have to think of food as fuel for your body. Give it crap, and it will run like crap. Give it the good stuff, and you'll have more energy and your body will run more efficiently. ;)

    Good luck to you, and don't ever lose sight of the fact that you are a worthwhile person, no matter what. :)

    Hugs...

    Okay, I'm 5'8, 200 lbs. - I even weigh *more* than you - and I am content, even satisfied, with my figure.

    I have one thing that you're lacking:

    CONFIDENCE!

    You are only as sexy as you think you are. Even if you aren't the most gorgeous thing that ever walked the earth, if you *act* like it, it shows.
    And I know you're a dude, but this advice applies to both sexes.

    What I can suggest is to just get up and move around - go for a walk and get some fresh air. I definitely feel more attractive when I exercise regularly, because I know I'm doing something good for my body. I'm with EarthyMama, drinking water doesn't hurt, either.

    Just love thyself, and the rest will fall into place.

    Thats pretty much right where you should be if you consider body mass index...
    I'm 5'7.5" and weigh in about 175lbs ... I could stand to lose a pound or two... But nothing major...

    Hey there Brother.

    You for you. Love yourself. When you look in a mirror, realize your seeing perfection. And stop worrying about what others see in you.

    Ask yourself, would you really want to go out with these girls if all they are interested in are looks? Were is the emotions for each other? Maybe that trip away to find a good date is worth it. Much time to think along the trip, and even better. Respect is given to you.

    Peace
    The Pizza Prophet
