Hi I’m Bri. I don’t feel confident or attractive with my current body. I want to lose some weight but still feel like me. I’ve tried counting calories. But it didn’t work. I just want to be at a healthy weight to feel like me and to no longer just be the big girl

Hi Bri, I couldn’t scroll past your post without commenting. Beauty is in the eye of beholder. Don’t put your self down. I need to loose weight too. It’s easier said that done. If you have tried calorie counting have you tried one of the slimming clubs. I once lost 4.5 stones in a slimming club but ended up putting it all back on and more. I’m trying again but this time I have health issues so I’m making even more of an effort now. Don’t think of your self as the big girl. Before I met my wife I thought of myself as a fat guy that no girl would be interested in. We started chatting on a dating website. I was so negative about my self I thought once we dated she wouldn’t want to see me again as I thought (and still do) she was beautiful. Well we have been together since 2008 and married for 12 years. Try to look more positive it may make it easier for you.

I’m similar, I want to be the one that feels more confident and content in herself too. The change comes from you just take small steps! Even though I know I’m struggling to believe it yet but I agree with everything the previous commenter wrote! Our bodies have done so much for us regardless of the size and we need to try to learn to love them even if its hard (myself included!) You can always reach out if you want! 😊
