Critical
My problem is that I am always thinking so critically of myself. It started a few years ago when I realized I was obese. I have lost a few pounds since then, not enough to be rewarded for but I still feel fat and ugly all of the time. Technically, if you went by my BMI I am overweight still. I wish I did not feel this way about myself because I have always admired confident people, you know? I want to be like them. Its like, I tried to slim my body but NOTHING works so I have given up on that. Yet when I look in the mirror I see a fat, ugly person that everyone hates. What should I do? Life is miserable this way. Please help...

I wish everyone who felt as you do would think about exercise in a different way, if only for a few days. Don't think about it as an end all, I'm doing this to lose weight kind of deal. Push yourself, yes, but do not PUNISH yourself; who wants to keep up a punishment regimene? Find something you enjoy doing and do it for it's own sake. It will help you feel better in general to be moving your body, plus, as a terrific side effect, you might become more fit! I personally am somewhat lazy and enjoy stretching for about a half hour every day while I watch Oprah and on other days walk my puppy (I'll "explore" with him and attempt to keep the leash from pulling by keeping up with him). Good luck! Love yourself.

Critical,
I know the feeling, at a point in my life I went through that same stage. Losing weight is one of the hardest things to do, its like kicking a bad habit like smoking or drinking. You have to take the time to do it plus it is a full time job because you have to monitor yourself from eating bad things, over eating proper portions. But exercise is good, like jogging for 15-30 minutes a day is better than nothing or even walking for 45 min. As for the confidence that is all about how you handle yourself. It's something that takes practice and finess. I have built up my confidence by furthering myself in aspect of my life, such as computer, reading, language, film, any hobby I take up soon becomes a perfection, a part of my life. So if you want to begin feeling better about yourself take the time to appreciate what sets you apart from people and use that as your foundation to form who you want to be in your future.

Oh. Well ill try to help. First of all talk to your parents. you need to start eating healthy and exercizing regularly. Tellyour parents that you want to go on a diet/. I am sure that they will start buying healthier foods for you. You should probably just count your calories. it is normal for a person to eat about 2000 calories a day. If you eat healthy stuff like fruits and vegies etc, and stay around 2000, you'll be good. You could actually go for a 1900 calorie diet to loose more wieght. That would probably be more efficiant. Also you need to exercize. You can start out by walking for a half hour every other day Than gradually switch to a jog when your bodies ready. You can also get magazines and books with good diet and exercize solutions, or look online! Good luck. if you have any questions, leave them in my inbox!!

Hey you should NEVER think so negatively about your self. I am sure you are a pretty girl and no one hates you.
You are who you are and you can't change that.
What I would do is jog around your block every morning and evening for maybe a half hour or more.
Exercising helps you lose weight too.
Crunches, sit ups, push ups.
All you need is a HEALTHY diet that you can stick to.
Half of the problem is that you have no confidence in your self.
Without confidence it makes it so much easier to be so critical about your self, and that will just make you want to give up.
Since you said nothing works for you to lose weight then what I would do is go see a nutritionist. They will be able to put you on a diet that is just right for you.
