I love helping other people with their problems, which is why I decided to start an advice column of my own! So if you ever need advice on almost anything, you can ask me! ^_^

I've been married for almost 7 years and have one child who is almost 5. I'm 35, female, and I hate my body. I had a round belly when I got married, but now, in addition to that, I have this roll around my middle, and no waist. I have a hard time following strict diets that involve a lot of restrictions and strenuous exercise. I also have cellulite on my thighs, but I mostly want to get rid of the excess flab around my waist and tummy. Also, I think I might be pregnant because I've been feeling dizzy and nauseous for weeks. I've taken two tests, but they came back negative because I think I took them too early. I forgot how many weeks it's been since I stopped my birth control. I'm going to take another test in another week. Is there a diet that is safe to do during pregnancy? I know this is a lot of info, but if anybody can help me, I would really appreciate it. If I am pregnant, I'm afraid of gaining even more weight during my pregnancy. Help! (link)

First of all, dieting is not the answer. All dieting does is get you fatter. Your metabolism slows down because you're not eating as much, and your body doesn't want to eat your insides. So then once you eat a little more then you've restricted, your metabolism doesn't work fast enough to digest the food and it stores the excess food as fat.
Second of all, do you think it's really possible to get pregnant without gaining weight?
Third, why stop birth control pills? All that will do is get you pregnant.

Your advice wasn't all that helpful, but at least you weren't downright insulting and rude like that other person. So I gave you credit for manners. Also, I stopped taking birth control because I wanted to have another child. My husband and I talked about it. Perhaps I should have made that clear in my question.
