Truefully does anybody have weight issues???

Oh, I forgot to report my age, weight and measurements :rolleyes:

I'm 15 (16 in Dec.), I am 5'6" tall, and I my weight fluxiuates from 115-117 ---depending on how much chocolate I've indulged in recently ;) I try and exercise every day (you know, walking, crunches, pushups, leg-lifts, Lotte Berk *ouch!* . .), and because I'm a vegetarian I eat a lot of fruits and veggies and stuff, and constantly watch what I'm eating to make sure I'm getting the right nutrients, so that helps me mantain a good healthy weight. I don't ever count carbs or calories at all, I just try and grab healthy snacks more than unhealthy ones. It works, and I'm very happy with the way I look. I'm not bone-thin, but I don't want to be. A girl needs a little curves! :teeth:
 
When ever I weigh myself I fell really bad even though I know that muscle weighs more than fat. I am strong and I have stated with a personal trainer at the gym to put on muscle for swimming. So I have decided to stop weighing myself all the time and eat less junk, because I work really hard at swim practice and at the gym. I am happy now!
 
I am small for my age.

I am 13, 4.5, and weigh about 84 pounds.
I am not fat but like I dont like the shape of my stomach. Like I dont know its weird like from the front I dont want to say I look fat but yeah you know what I mean, but from the side I look skinny, its weird.

I don't think I've posted yet...

Okay guys... yeah please don't obsess about your weight if you, in your heart, know you're okay. I hated that. I went through that. And it wasn't pretty. I try not to weigh myself anymore. I know in my heart i'm okay and I need to stop obsessing.

I hate it when people say things about themselves which is just untrue, or they are looking too hard. Thats where eating disorders start.

However, the song "Beautiful" by Creed is a great song to describe that part of my life.

Currently, I'm about 5'3, and i'm 120. Don't worry about how your stomachs look. So what. If you think someone is prettier than you or more attractive, don't worry. They are probably empty and uncomfortable with themselves. They probably feel like they have to impress people. And if someone judges you or picks on you because of your weight, they don't deserve your friendship. HECK, they don't deserve your PRESENCE.

Just be healthy. If you feel healthy, you eat correctly, then you deserve to be flipping happy with yourself. And I applaud you for being satisfyed. Everyone is beautiful.

Sorry, this just hits a certain spot in me.

i think someone already posted this but i couldnt find it to qoute it so i'll type instead :)

sometimes when i have a flu or a simple cold i'll lose a ton of weight. like, last winter, i had this horrible flu where i also had a horrible cough and sore throat. i couldnt move on my own and i could hardly see. if i stood up i got a pounding headache and felt like a had to throw up. i lost 10 pounds from that because i was so sick, and i weighed like 98 pounds.

also i hate when people who dont know me call me anerexic. i dont even look anerexic at all really. it hurts my feelings when people automatically judge me and think im one of those people who are crazy enough to starve themselves. i cant help it, its how im genetically built.

and i dont even know how people could starve themselves! i could never live a day without food! i love food <3 :) !

NO. You are tall. You should weigh that much. You probably are a string bean. Everyone should watch what they eat but not because they are in danger of being overweight, but because it's healthy and stuff. Don't worry about it.

I am overweight, but not nearly as much as I used to be. I have depression issues, and I am on medication for it...so, naturally, one of the side-affects of the medication is weight gain. Before all of the pills, I was always really skinny, but about 3 months after being medicated, I was 5'0" and weighed about 190 pounds. It terrified me, since I had always been so petite before and I was always really upset about it. Everytime I had to go shopping for clothes, I would end up crying hysterically in the back of a dressing room, because of the fact that nothing fit me. School was a different story entirely. I would always have people teasing me about the weight I had gained, and the taunting got so violent, that I had a lunch room full of high school kids stand up in their chairs and call me vulgar names while I was having to walk to my next class. About a year later, I decided to do something about it than just sitting around and crying. So I made a promise to myself that I would cut back on my daily intake of food, give up all chocolate and candy, and try to talk a walk around my block atleast once a day. Now I am happy to say that I am still 5'0", but I weight about 155 pounds. It didn't take me all that long to lose the weight, and my confidence and self-esteem has improved 100%. I am still a bit overweight, but I look at it as something that I can take care of in due time.


Rude People! and i'm so Pround of you! it must of been hard I think everybody id beautyful in ther own way! I think I might do that :goodvibes

That happened to me too! I losed like 7 pound and it wasnt my fault I wasnt staring myself I just never felt like eating (that's stange for me cuz I love food too) and I think whoevrer said Sarah looked anerexie I'm gonna beat them up lol (not really)
 
I have weight issues. I definetly do not think I'm fat. I'm 14, 5'9" and 140 lbs. I get a little self conscious whenever I have to wear a bikini but then I just remember that everyone is beautiful and people should like you for your personality not your body type. I also think that being in a sport helps so much. I'm on the swim team and during swim season last year I lost a pant size and almost 10lbs. in 2 weeks!! ::yes:: It was weird but I felt the best I had in my life and for once I felt like I could compete with all those skinny people..which I know is a bad thought and I shouldn't compare myself to them but its so hard when guys give them all the attention..ya know?? :confused3 But I will definetly say that being in a sport helps you lose a lot of weight. And don't eat a lot of sugars, too.
 
I don't have weight problem at all (I'm 5'6 and 120 pds) but I don't eat well at all, so thats what I'l *trying* to do. I eat way too much junk and not enough fruits and veggies.

To those of you trying to lose weight, I would definately say take up a sport. In the past I've played Field Hockey, I would eat waaay more than I do now, but I actually lost weight. Good Luck!
