Question Posted Wednesday August 12 2009, 12:16 am
hey guys, okay so i'm at a pretty unhealthy weight. not so overboard that health issues are becoming a scare but enough that at the rate i am going, they very well could be in the near feature.
so i'd really like to shed some pounds. the biggest reasons i'd like to do this are for more self confidence, and because heart problems and diabetes run in my family. i'd like to be at a relatively healthy weight in order to keep myself from having any of the stated diseases. anyone who is considered overweight and has tried to lose the weight without help knows how difficult it can be, and especially if you don't really have ANY SUPPORT from your family.
SO WHAT I AM ASKING FOR IS; tips and tricks! please. just somethings i can do to help shed some pounds and become a healthier person. i'm not dying to be thin, just to be thinnER.
*oh, and if you're going to suggest a gym. i have subscribed to CURVES for women, and have been going.. what i am looking for is additional advice. and also eating habits, or sites that help with eating and diets. foods that are okay, foods that are not. that sort of thing. i can't afford weight watchers, or jenny craig because i am only 18, and can't afford that.

Yes it will be hard to do this by your self but you can do it if you have enough determination. Stop the pop this helps so much. Try a morning walk. It gets you ready for the day also. Your family should support you but they may not because they think your perfect the way wou are. [ Unusual's advice column | Ask Unusual A Question ]
