I'm 22 years old -female. Live in Edinburgh - Scotland. I am in a really depressed situation, lol. I feel so depressed because I am overweight. I don't know where to start, or how to begin, since I'm really shy to go to the gym or what so ever. I never was like this before, it happend since 2/3 years ago. Erm, to be honest I don't know my weight, but I know I am overweight. For some reason I don't want to know how much my weight is, it feels it would make me more depressed. Erm, it's not that I eat lots of stuff. Sometimes I eat just one thing a day. That happens almost daily. I don't know what more to say. I just want support from you guys, since I see this as my last option. :cry:



Thanks for reading.

Ps; if you guys have any questions, feel free to ask.
 
I can totally understand where your coming from. I know for a fact that I am overweight and that I need to lose weight. I've been like this since I was 12 and I'm 15 now and it just seems to be piling on. My metabolism sucks and from the sound of it (take no offense) its sounds yours does to. I don't really eat alot I think alot of its from stress and the way its prepared (greasy = bad xP). Welcome to the forums, I'm a new member to btw. My best information could be don't be so depressed because its basically stress just bundled up and I should know, I'm always depressed and so is my mom. Just try to think positively and try to imagine how you'll feel when you replace your current body with a slim one. I bet it'd be great.

I'm trying to lose weight to and if you need help motivating yourself we're here for you. As we are for everyone else struggling with their weight :3

Thanks for your reaction, I really appreciate it. What is your weight if I may ask? My metabolism sucks as well, indeed. Haha, well I prepare my meals myself, for me and my fiance, the only problem is I hardly eat -nothing- anymore. Or I just eat one thing a day. I don't understand it, because I love veggies, all veggies. I love water, etc. I don't think it's the stress thing, though. I think it's the depression. But you're so young, and you seem a really clever person for your age.

Thank you. You too welcome to the forums. Again, you're so young and have a depression. I want to cuddle you now, lol. Do you imagine yourself as a slim person? How and what do you feel then? I get the; oke tomorrow I start going to the gym do some bellydancing for an hour, eat atleast 3 times a day. And then that next day, I get up, do some cleaning and feel depressed again. I just don't get that? I think this forum will help us, especially the; BEFORE AND AFTER section.

Well atleast I find myself already a new friend!

Your very welcome. I wouldn't say that its definitely depression but it certainly feels like it. I have been going through alot of stressful stuff within the last couple of months. (my grandmother passed away on March 23, i have to move away from all of my friends and to a whole new area that i don't know from a house i've literally lived in all of my life, plus we had to get rid of five of our pets. lifes just hell right now :/). But I joined this site to try and motivate myself and the BEFORE AND AFTER section plus all the other boards certainly help with that :).

I weigh 250 and I know thats really unhealthy and personally I think alot of its from my stress and me just being inactive. (i have very low self esteem and have low motivation and i just get embarrassed very easily because if i'd try to go out and exercise i'd think to myself people are thinking 'oh why is she out here.' or something rude in general. just.. i'm really self concise and thats not hard to tell. plus i've been emotionally and verbally abused by my dad in the past plus bullying in middle school which doesn't help that.) I plan on joining a local YMCA and start doing cardio up there plus join other local weight clinics for children and teenagers.

I don't think that I've ever imagined myself as a skinny person but I used to be skinny and I think if I was of average weight I could manage my weight normally exercise or not considering I don't eat alot. (not your stereotypical fat person :p) And I do love my fruit and veggies, epically spinach, peas, corn, broccoli, strawberries, apples and bananas. Though I do like my meat do. When I imagine myself as a skinny person I just get a random burst of energy. Just imagining that I wouldn't be looked down upon by the people in my community (which half of them are sports freaks, and skinny little poles that weigh like 90 lbs. i think if you weigh of 100+ then your considered fat atleast where i live. even some of my skinny friends get bullied because there not skinny even though they are) and I know that I would feel much better about myself which would help me both mentally, emotionally and physically. Plus you can also tell yourself that you'd be able to fit into all the clothes that you love that you see in stores as an extra perk. Plus going up to your friends and showing them your sexy and slim new body and receiving those compliments like 'You look great!' and 'Well done!' are also really great thing. Theres alot to look forward to once you lose weight and I hope to achieve my weight loss goal by next summer.

I'm glad that I could befriend you and give you some information even though its probably not top notch quality. ~

P.S- I've heard if you just try and set small goals and take baby steps it will work out good. For example say someone was 190 and they want to lose 50 lbs. They could set a goal for the end of the week like 'I will lose 2 lbs this week or so many pounds this month. '[/I]
 
well i know how stress goes..several years ago my mom had 5 bypass surgery and thats when i really blew up big. this past summer both of my parents suffered strokes and ive moved in with my dad to take care of him. its really brought me to reality of what can happen if i dont get my butt in gear with my weight...
