Diets are unrealistic. Once you go off them, you gain your weight back. Try cutting out certain foods from your daily intake, and exercise, its the best way to loose weight the proper way

If you find that you're eating because food is all around and you're bored, find things to occupy your time! Whether it's your job, some new hobbies, hanging out with friends, or spending some time at the gym - which might be good if you want to lose weight - it will take your mind off of eating and help you change your lifestyle. Also, if most of the food where you live is not healthy food, you might consider doing some of your own shopping to purchase healthier options for yourself. Finally, if you have any friends who are also trying to lose weight, use them for support! If the two of you do it together and hold each other accountable, it might help you to stick to it! You can do it, don't give up!

Cheer up! There are lots of us that are like you out here. When I was in college I obsessed about my weight too. I was 5'7'' and probably maxed at about 180lbs. I liked to dress cute and I hated that everyone else was thinner.\n\nI really can relate. Here is the solution. It worked for me...and I think it will work for you. \n\nFirst, get away from all the thin people. Stop looking at the magazines and glorifying all that is thin. Eventually you will see that weight and happiness are not the same. Then work on your self-esteem.\n\nGet out....exercise and eat.....eat good foods and don't limit yourself. Eat regularly and healthy. No junk food except once a week. Exercise daily at least a little and more than 30 minutes x3 times a week. Hang out with friends that are supportive of your life style change. Never be alone if you are hungry or depressed. Never....even if you have to go to a place that is boring like the library or the gym at night. \n\nRemind yourself that your are worth the effort. And go shopping at Target or Good will or thrift stores. The latter can be quite cool. If you buy your clothes big enough you won't be as bothered by your weight. \n\nDon't give up...you will be fit and happy one day. Being in college and feeling miserable is universal for some...but staying that way is temporary.\n\nGood luck...I know you will succeed. Just remember a chunky girl in college is a trim one later in life. (it is the skinny ones that fill out)....

yes i think you are overweight. im sorry for being upright. but, you can start by eating daily salads everyday and lots of fruit. most people actually feel hungry because they are thristy. thrist turns into hunger. also cut down on carbs, and meat. stay on a low fat diet and drink lots of water! good luck. :)

Eat healthy, SKIP SNACKS, that was my worst thing to overcome. Eat light, but healthy.\nExercises for AT LEAST 30 minutes CONTINUOUSLY. Aerobics, Swimming and Dancing are the best ways because they use every part of the body and two include music, making it fun.\nDONT LOOK AT THE SCALE. That makes you feel stressed out, which can add to weight. \nCheck out www.mypyramid.gov to see what is healthy and how much you should eat.\nFeel good about yourself and Good luck. God Bless.

My friend has this same problem . . . but if you're active and eating right then there's not too much you can do. You could sneak in extra calories with liquids and eat more frequently outside of that you may just have to wait until your metabolism slows down.

You are not overweight, you are the right weight for your height. i would combine everslim with regular exercise. You can take walks other kinds of exercise.Your doing good, maybe eat lot of veggies, \nbut no starve di&#92;ets.If you lose to much too fast\nchances are the weight will come back because your body \nwill think its starving .

If you would give anything to lose this weight then start making a plan and stick with it:\n\n1.  Get a physical from your doctor informing him that you want to lose weight.\n\n2.  Find a local community gym that is free.  If not, find a gym that is close to where you live and join.  Or you can start out by just walking daily without joining a gym.  This might be frightful to you because  you are big and may feel that others are looking at you............WHO CARES !\n\n3.  150 pounds to lose is a lot of weight.  You may need to see a counselor to find out why you are addicted to food while losing the weight.\n\n4.  You need to buy a book on binge eating/food addiction so that you can find out what type of relationship you have with food.  Please keep in mind the following:\n\nYou already know how to lose weight.  You know that if you eat less and exercise more eventually you’ll see the pounds come off.  What’s getting in your way?  Why do you usually regain the weight you lost?  The answer to all these questions is the same “Emotional Eating.”  Simply defined, emotional eating means you eat to satisfy emotional hunger; it means you use food for comfort or as a way to cope with life; and it means you eat for reasons other than what your body needs.  Whenever you reach for a boredom-breaking snack despite your commitment, or whenever you eat to quell anxiety, that’s emotional eating.   Whenever you binge after a fight, or double up on portions because your day turned sour, that’s emotional eating. Whenever you feel that sharp craving for your favorite food, that’s emotional eating.  When we eat during these times while on a diet, we believe the diet doesn’t work or that we lack self control and then look for the quickest way to lose weight (fasting/diet pills, ect) after eating all we can since we already messed the diet day up.   \n\nGet control of your emotional eating and any diet will work.  Best of Luck !\n\n\nDiets do work\n\nDiets can work but because we know so little about ourselves and our relationship with food, it makes it difficult to win the battle. A lot of us have problems with dieting because we have a problem called "emotional eating" we eat to comfort ourselves during difficult, stressful, sad, etc times in our lives.\n\nYou may experience all those emotions during dieting as we continuously get on the scale hoping to see a big difference in numbers after dieting only for a day or two. Also what is stressful when dieting is that we try to lose a large number of weight in such a short period of time which in most cases is unreasonable. \n\nThis all brings about stress, discomfort and sadness. When we feel this way, we turn to our best friend for help and support which for many of us is food. The diet is now broken and we feel that we can't stick to diets. We then try fad diet after fad diet hoping to lose the original 20 pounds and now we may have as much as 30 pounds to lose because we continue to put on weight as we continue to break these fad diets by binging for starting our next diet. \n\nPlease learn about your relationship with food before your next diet so that you may achieve your goals. To help a little, keep in mind the following:\n\nYou already know how to lose weight. You know that if you eat less and exercise more eventually you’ll see the pounds come off.

OK, first of all, you are not overweight. You are tall and weigh what you are supposed to. What you can do is exercise the areas you are not happy with. If you starve yourself or eat very little, you will only slow down your metabolism and gain a bunch of weight once you start eating normally. Don't play games with your health.

It sounds like you might have some sort of emotional problem and that food is your escape. Try going to counseling. \nIf this is not the case, them maybe you need a hobby since all you do is think about food. You definitely need to change your mentality about working out. \nYou try Weight Watchers you might enjoy that programs since you are allowed to eat what you want and your not deprived. \n\nGood Luck & Stay Strong.

The best way to get motivated is to believe that you are already a beautiful and wonderful person.  When you stress out about what you should be doing and how you should look, it drains your energy to the point where you can't even leave the house.  When you know you are a great person you feel like taking better care of yourself.  Trust me.  For years I thought I was worthless and wore baggy clothes and no makeup.  Lately I have decided to take good care of myself, and in turn I don't binge or stress like I used to.  It's weird that forgetting about losing weight makes you lose it easier.  It's all about distracting your brain.  Good luck!
