Question

I forgot to mention that i am 5"6 as well.

Answer 1

Just forget about quickly or you are going to doom yourself to fail. Weight loss requires willpower and long term commitment. The problem with your question is that if you look in "search for questions" it comes up 30 times every day. I have had some criticism for repeatedly using the same answer, but since I am happy with my answer, and the questions are the same, I don't see the issue with recycling the same answer.

In practise for problems that came up on a regular basis we tended to use patient leaflets to avoid having to repeat ourselves this seemed a sensible use of resources. What follows is thus in effect me information leaflet.

Weight loss and fitness is always a long term commitment and never a quick fix. If you really want to reduce your weight a bit, this is a complex regime, that should help, I would get a pencil to write it down, in case you forget any of the intricate details.

Currently only using the criteria 'lose weight' there are 9,419 questions and answers on Answers already. Mis-spell it as 'loose weight' and you get another 2,633! 'Weight loss' will add another 1,883. 'Too fat ' 15,515 and 'overweight' 2,692 and 'over weight' 26,269!!!!!.

'Diet Pills' gives 607, Green tea 482, Hoodia 195, 'pink patch' 119, 'Xenical' 91 'Reductil' 78, 'Slim fast' 215 (and Slimfast 69 ), lipotrim 44 and 'orlistat' 40 . Do you spot a pattern here? OMG that is 60,000 questions with the same basic theme, wanting to lose weight!

Here comes the only answer, no tricks, no pills, no short cuts, If you really want to lose weight, loose weight, not be too fat or overweight, follow these instructions carefully:-

1) Eat less

2) Take regular vigorous exercise

Repeat 1 + 2 forever

Answer 2

go  wheat  free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food after 7

p.m.  People  achieve  marvellous  results  with it. Depending on your

initial  weight,  you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If you don't eat  wheat  then you don't eat all those sticky, fatty goey cakes, you don't  eat  junk  food,  and  you don't eat biscuits. But your diet is

still  balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to calculate points or to buy special meals or plans.

Answer 3

people are looking at you because you look ill. I know seriously. I used to be anorexic and can happily say i am fine now and happy. You wont be how you think you are being judged I used to think people looked at me because i was hideous and fat but apparently not...even my mother was ashamed to walk with me not because i was fat but because i looked ill and she looked like she had neglected me. You do not want to think of what others think of you, you want to be able to accept yourself and if you dont do that you will head straight down the road to an attention seeking eating disorder and more people will look at you. Dont be sick you need to eat but do it in moderation. If you ate slightly more you might have enough energy to work out and tone your body in order to feel more energetic and happy with yourself.

Eat 5-6 times a day and look at the promax website for diet ideas it really helped me but do not lose weight tone up!. It is very dangerous for you If you lose anymore weight you will become cold, develop hair all over your body for warmth, you will lose your fertility and will be at very high risk of thining hair and oestoerporosis.

Good luck but please just live healthily and accept yourself and put on weight please xxxxx

Answer 4

Your underweight!

Answer 5

Hi 7st 3 no matter what height you are is not fat and I suggest you stop thinking this way as loosing another stone probably will make you look ill, if you have a few wobbly bits then do excercise to tone up as that will make you look slimmer, losing weight is not the only key to looking good, losing weight doesnt tone you up excercise does, someone can look really slim because they excercise and they can weight quite heavy. So think excercise before losing weight as you are heading for a disaster if you are 7st3 and think you are fat. its ridicoulous

Answer 6

shut up stop attention seeking

Answer 7

You don't give your height, but unless your my height in- between 5.0-5.2ft (approx) or below then your under- weight. I suggest you have a chat with your GP if you have an obsession with your weight.

Edit

If your 5"6 and you weight 7st 3, then you are underweight and if your looking at yourself thinking you are overweight then you may have Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)/Anorexia. See your Dr.

Answer 8

Please look at the chart below and see where you fall with regards to your height/weight ratio. If you are overweight and that is If (which I suspect you may very well not be), then I would suggest strongly that you seek professional help from you GP. Or if you have a family member that you can talk to please do so. I go to a slimming club where a young girl goes with her mother and she is advised on how to reduce her weight through a healthy eating plan (you are even allowed to include things you like to eat)

Drastic diets DO NOT work! As soon as you go back to eating what you used to the weight will come back too.

Please please don't follow some silly diet that someone suggests to you. Hopefully you will get the advise you need to help you feel more positive about yourself!!!
