Should I lose weight?

Find height/weight tables on the web. You don't sound overweight to me, but losing 5-10 lbs is probably fine. If you want to d

something about your belly, then you need exercise, too! Build up your core muscles and that will tone things up, too. And learn about eating clean - lots of quality protein. (chicken fish. Lean beef). Lots of green veggies. And cut out sugar and all refined wheat products !

 

Height weight tables might be right.

But I was expecting you to say you weighed, like...200 pounds or something.

I don't think you have a weight issue. I think you might have an exercise issue. Also, depression, you say? Maybe that has something to do with it. I think you're being overly critical.

Because weight is right in line with health. Some people are heavier, but very healthy. Some people are skinny but not healthy at all! I'd say make sure you are healthy, first!

 

You sound fine to me, but if you want to loose weight then its up to you.But like I said you don't need it

 

I think you should try to work out and build tone more than actually losing weight. Since I do not know what you look like or if you have a very light or heavier frame, I don't really know if you are at a healthy weight or not. However, if you do indeed have a belly as you say, getting toned should help.
Another thing, while depression can make it harder to actually start working out, sometimes regular exercise can help improve feelings of depression.

 

You're fine, you don't need to lose weight, don't even worry about it. You don't look fat at all in your pictures.

 

Ohh, so you're the one who posted! I didn't see the pic. Didn't you recently post a thread about asking if you were cute enough? I remember that because I felt really bad for you because you shouldn't think anything bad at all.

Can I just be blunt - is there something else going on? You just seem extremely hard on yourself.

 

I'm sorry to hear that, that's all very unfortunate. Just gotta hang in there until you can break free of that situation, go away to college and make friends who will accept you for who you are.

Of course you have all of us here to help you make it through your times of depression. (*hug*)

But dude seriously you've started multiple threads now asking about your appearance, and I think you've gotten your answer...you're not fat, you're not ugly, you're a total cutie pie, you have nothing to worry about. Any guy would consider himself lucky to be your boyfriend.:icon_wink

 

According to this, you're well within the healthy weight range. Of course it can depend on the size of your frame, but you're still at the lower end in terms of weight, so I can't imagine you being overweight. If you're worried about your "belly" I'd follow the advice of the others and try working on developing your core muscles.

I saw your other post and I get the idea that this is a big issue for you. I hope you can get over this, because you're really a good-looking guy and there's no reason to put yourself through this.

 

Well, the way that sounds, I am not surprised you have some issues - - well, a lot of issues. You have plenty of reason to be upset.

But before you spiral out of control, help yourself. Seek support for the things that are bothering you. I don't want to say "eating disorder" but I think that it could be very possible, if this spirals. You need to get on the right track.

As others have said, you are very adorable and are NOT fat. You're not even close.

We are always here for you!

 

That's understandable, since it sounds like you're dealing with a lot in your life. But you should really be proud of yourself for being able to keep on going in spite of all that. I know what it's like to be depressed. I've dealt with that for the last 2 years. Yeah it sucks, but I keep my chin up because I know I'm a stronger person because of it.

If you need friends, there are plenty of people here on EC who are your friends, including me. If you wanna talk, I'm here man.

I know you didn't lie. I just thought of it. Because that is kind of a big piece of the puzzle that makes a whole lot of sense now.

I think you have some issues, then, with eating disorders. .

What triggered it? Is it happening again? As in, is it over something ongoing (like your parents) or a new problem?

 

Yikes... that's absolutely crazy cray!

Well, all I can say is that you need to find a place where you can be supported.

Don't feel like you did anything wrong. You're a teenager. You aren't suppose to just sit and wait for someone to drop into your lap. Just always remember to be careful.

Secondly, I don't want to blow it out of proportion. I hope you don't think I'm trying to. I just think you have some issues that could get worse if you don't find a way to work on them, you know?

 

I weigh 130-135 and I am 5'6~ I don't think you are "OVER-WEIGHT" per se.
I saw your pix and u look fine.

I say start with a good diet. Get in the habit of watching what you eat because you are what you eat, right? Do some cardio or find what you like doing, physically.
