Weight is no different than hair color...some people prefer blonde, some dark hair. And the right person will love a blonde even if he thought he preferred brunettes. I'm sorry the world puts so much importance on weight, but you don't have to. You don't need to change a thing about yourself. I guarantee you there are dozens of people who think you are beautiful right now.

I have trouble with my weight too, though to be honest I don't always make good choices re: food/exercise. If you're making good choices and still not making progress, talk to your doctor, might be a medical (thyroid or hormonal) issue? And to answer your question, I sometimes think I'm of less worth because i'm overweight which is crazy! You are a worthy person, these human ideals (money, weight, accomplishments, etc) don't define your worth. Please try to treat yourself as if you are worthy (YOU ARE!!!!...even though I know you may not feel like it--yet). Be nice to yourself, comfort and soothe yourself. Go for a walk and soak in fresh air and sunshine, it will uplift your mood (I get so down when I don't go outside which happens more often that it should). Good luck xoxo I know we are strangers but I care and I'm sending you good vibes and positivity. Your existence is NOT a mistake, you are special and worthy xo

I understand how hard it is to lose weight for me it took huge changes. But I had help. I have a dietitian and a health coach. These people help me keep on track. I have to fill out reports and send to them. My insurance pays for it. There are many options. Have you spoken with a counselor? Perhaps they can help you see how you can lose weight. But if you feel as if you can no longer go on, please consider calling someone at least the suicide hotline at 1-800-273-8255 You can do this! Do not feel embarrassed about asking for help. Asking for help has saved my life and helped me make positive changes in my life. Hopefully if you find someone to help you it will change your life as well.

Im so sorry for your struggles x I hope you know you’re not alone and there are many in here that are with you on the same journey hearts

Yes. I have felt despair over my weight and compulsive eating. Overeaters Anonymous solved the problem. I've been at a healthy body weight for over seven years now.

Yes, at 112 lbs I wrote a contract with myself that I would never allow myself to get that big again. Ridiculous! I suggest a therapist that does "Mind-Body Bridging." It helped me!
