  • I wouldn't say I'm happy with my weight, but I'm not miserable either. Actually I have a cute hour glass figure, I'm a larger framed woman with curves. I've been told some men like that. But if I could lose about 15 pounds, especially in my butt, thighs, and stomach I'd be really happy. I do go to a gym but can only afford to see my trainer once a week. And I go on long walks everyday.
  • I am overweight at the moment but I have joined a slimming club. So far I have lost 12lbs in 5 weeks. I am losing it slowly rather than crash dieting as I have more chance of keeping it off. I am eating plenty of healthy foods (with a small amount of naughty food too) and try to walk everywhere rather than drive.
  • I was very over weight and one day thought i hate this so i joined a slimmimg club and lost 5 stone it took me 18 months to do,that was 9 years ago and through exercice and eating healthy i have managed to keep it off and its the best thing i ever did and if i can do it anyone can as i did it for me and no-one else.
  • Yes. It is part of my whole picture. I could stand to lose a few pounds, but I don't worry about it. Life's too short, and so am I!!!
  • No i am far too slim and under weight, i desperately want to put on weight but its really hard, since i hit 30 i thought i would gain weight but alas its gone the other way, i eat like a horse and still no extra poundage!
  • I am happy with my weight when Im not on house arrest I go 2 to 3 times a week to the gym to maintain healthy
  • It's not so much my weight as my eating habits. That's what has to change. Too much sugar! (But I cut down alot lately)!
  • I'm not happy with my weight, but I'm dieting. I've lost over 20 lbs so far this year, but I think that what's better is that I haven't GAINED weight with all of the travel I've done. At least I'm happy with my health and I hope to keep it that way by exercise and healthful eating. :)
  • Yep. and I work really hard to maintain it too!
  • I want to add a few pounds, and I hope they go to the chest area. =)
  • No and no, but I should do.
  • I am the heaviest I have even been in my life. But a month ago I was even 10 lbs heavier. I don't think I will ever be "happy".. maybe "content" would be a better word. I joined a really nice gym and go three times a week and cut out so much of the junk and started eating fruit and vegetagbles because after Highlander asked a question about how many pieces of fruit you eat in a day, my answer was maybe 1 a week and that was a scary reality that I didn't want to admit.
  • I could stand to lose a few pounds, but I'm not really being pro-active about it..Life's a little hectic right now, maybe after christmas..
  • I haven't been happy with my weight since high school. Yes, I watch what I eat and walk a lot. After the holidays, I'm going to get more agressive about it. It's really my height that needs adjusting. :D
  • Yes I am happy with my weight. I am usually 105-110 lbs. The weight does not matter it is the muscle tone that counts.
  • Well - I've lost 27+ lbs in the last few months, so I'm getting happier about my weight. I used to be extremely unhappy. Now, I'm happier - but not satisfied, as I know I should (and want to) weigh less. I still have about 40 lbs to go - but I'm getting there.
  • yeah, i am!
  • No, I'm not happy with my weight right now, but I'm even less happy with how out of shape I am right now. Yes, I am doing something about it. Recently, I am getting more exercise and eating healthier. Usually, when I'm exercising regularly, my body image issues do not bother me.
  • No, I'm not happy with my weight. I have lost about 20lbs in the past few months, I'm trying to get more active now to lose the next 20-30. All I have to say is it's a good thing I'm 5'8"!
  • No Im not very happy, just a bit unhappy! Im an eating very healthy and i excercize 2 hours a day, 7 days a week for the past month! I only want to loose another 4 kilos but I cant.... can anyone help?
  • i'm feeling a bit too thin at the moment. If i could put on a mabye a few more pounds that would be nice. I like having a little meat to me :)
  • I'm 5'8, and 130 pounds. I fell like a big fat cow. I was 120 and it was so nice.... :-(
  • I'm trying to lose about 15 lbs without weighing myself..I think I'm doing well..my clothes are much loser....:) I wish you were still here.
  • I don't like my weight, i have been trying to loose some weight, but nothig is happening. I stop taking sugar, fatty foods and work-out a little btit. Can i try fat-burners tablets?
  • I'm an emotional eater, and several years ago, when I was in a bad relationship, I got depressed and turned to food...and gained a LOT of weight. the 2 best things I did was to end that bad relationship (and get away from the "cause"), and join Weight Watchers. I've lost almost 80 lbs, and my bp/cholesterol are back to normal and I feel so much better now (AND I'm in a happy relationship now!). edit: wow...I didn't even notice who the poster of the question was until right after I posted it. I'm sorry I never really got to know you very well, Blank Savage, wherever you are now....
  • I have to admit...I am a tad bit overweight. I am 5'2" and weigh about 202. My lover says he likes the way I look and feel. But I can't help but to feel a wee pudgey when I pull a cookie out of my folds. I just feel like there's more of me to love and I can keep up with the best of them, when I eat. I have a few problems with my ankles but other than that, I think I'm physically in great shape (round).
  • Is anyone happy with their weight? I certainly am not. I've lost quite a bit so far and still working on it. I'm in the gym every day. South Beach all the way for me.
  • No, I need to get motivated to work out more often and avoid bad foods.
  • no im not but i try and do something about it-- not doi ng very well tho lol =S
  • Never happy with it, whether I'm on the downward slope or the upward slope. It's been a lifelong struggle and I've lost at least 70-90 lbs at least 3 times in my life. I've quit fighting it though and just try to be happy and see what happens.
  • not happy with it but it's a good weight for me to be. Umm, yeah i'm doing something about it. I'd like to lose 5 pounds...maybe 10 but I dont think my body would let me do that and still be healthy
  • I am mildly displeased with my weight. Not displeased enough to watch what I eat or exersise, though.
  • Not happy. Need to lose about 30 pounds. But they've been around for years and don't look like they will be moving out anytime.
  • No, I am not at all happy with my weight. I try to exercise and eat better but after a few weeks I end up tapering off. It is hard to stay motivated for me.
  • well the key to losing weight is EXERCISE. most of the time people go on diets but end up losing more muscle and water than fat. exercise is mandatory
  • Im 5'6 and 116 I could take some lbs off
  • I am unhappy with my weight but wont accept it because i dont look the weight to others as it is all round my middle !! I really must do something i am not a big eater but i run a pub and of course there is alcohol and late night eating so i am guessing this is the problem !!!
  • Though I not overweight. I do want to reduce a little round my waist. I try doing yoga, walking and abstain from eating junk food and sweets.
  • im pretty happy with my weight. althought i think i coullld loose a little bit... but no one esle thinks so.. so i think im good!
  • Not at all and yeah i am doing something about it.
  • I'm 5 ft flat and I weigh 46 kg. I'm happy with it..
  • I think what is most important is to keep always a healthy life style, with all the products they have out there in the market these days is so easier than ever to find good products, because is not just a matter of losing weight it is also important to take care of your cholesterol level and uric acid. I used to be 278 pounds just about a year and a half, and what is really important for me is diet and exercise, of course we all make mistakes but it is really important never to give up, now i feel so much better and i still make mistakes some times but i know how to control myself in case i do eat more than the right quantity, and about my shape what was really hard for me was that after i lost all that weight my body was all loose until i tried this garments from this ebay store vedetteoutlet.com and ohhh it really improved my shape and also my posture because my posture was really bad specially after carrying all those pounds for years. But most important of all exercise!!
  • Not happy with my weight, but that is because I am pregnant and hot and tired. LOL I will do something about it in about 6 weeks time. :)
  • I am not happy with my weight and I am doing something about it. I joined WW about two months ago and lost 20 lbs.
  • i am 5ft2in. i weigh 245 pounds (i can hear the snickers from all over the web...lol...i dont care) but i can honestly say YES i am happy. i used to be very unhappy...the taunts, the teaseing, trying to find something to wear...etc etc. but i finally found out that life is too short to worry about such minor things as looks. family and people who love you...now that is what really matters. as long as your healthy and not in any physical pain because of pain why worry about it...being unhappy only makes the ones who love you unhappy...and only makes bullies want to torture you more...i laugh with them when they make fun of me, and at them for missing there chance for a true friendship.
  • I am still a stone underweight, but have already put two on, so im happier with my weight and im working hard to put the rest on.:-)+
  • I am not, but I don't have enough money (or transportation) to get the medical help I need. My body fat and weight problem are due to a condition.
  • I don't feel I look to fat, though I don't like the number 164 on the scale. I am 5'9 and male and was once 141. I started cutting down and exercising more a week ago. I would like to drop 10lbs, but safe weight loss is so slow (even 10lbs takes six to eight weeks to lose safely). My problem was comfort eating through depression. The problem is any of the big diets would literally kill me, as they're mostly designed for women, and I'm a fast metabolismed, very physically active 20 y/ o guy. I just enjoy my food too much. My mum did say I looked thin and pale, the whole time I was under 150.
  • im 16 and recently my mom has had problems with her knees because of her job being on her feet all day. she is overweight and the doctors said it was because of her weight that she is having problems with her knees, bearing in mind she is only 42. when my mom was younger she had exactly the same frame as me and she told me that it was in her later teens that her eating habits made her put on weight, i also eat the same as her when she was younger. this scared me (no offence mom) but i dont want to start having knee problems in my 40's. for my height i am actually overweight...and yes i have decided to do something about it. everyday me and my best friend go out for about 2 hours of gentle excersise e.g jogging, skating, walking long distances ect. we also do situps before going to bed every night. we have also been eating healthier than normal. alot of apples and drinking water and healthier drinks, that dont have as much (or no) sugar in. we have only been doing this for 4 days, but already i can feel a change in myself. i can run further without getting tired as quick, whereas i used to feel tired and lazy all the time. we intend to do this for as long as it takes for me and her to feel confident in ourselves. p.s i'm the one with glasses
  • NO! YES , IM READING WHAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE DONE TO LOOSE WEIGHT, ALTHOUGH I ALREADY KNOW WHAT TO DO,(STOP NOT CARING) TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF MY LIFE. MY GOAL IS 2LBS A WEEK FOR A TOTAL OF 26LBS. MAYBE BY CHRISTMAS I WONT LOOK LIKE THE CHRISTMAS TREE
  • I need to lose about 45 pounds and now I'm doing Kimkins. At least it's easy. Boring too but it works fast. I'm also trying to go to the gym 3 times a week with my best friend. She got me a 30 day membership for my birthday.
  • Like a lot of women I'd like to be a little lighter, I'd like to be a stone lighter actually but I find it impossible to diet as I am a comfort eater! I do go to the gym and love the buzz you get afterwards but find it difficult to make myself go sometimes as I feel really fat and ugly in my gym gear. I'm trying to learn to like my shape but have always struggled with confidence and body image. I'll get there though :-)
  • People say I am skinny but ever since I did a 10mile run before christmas my left knee has been hurting me so im losing weight to put less pressure on the joint until it has healed. I have only been on my diet a week but already lost 5 pounds and I can also see my obliques now which is pretty cool. I really don't understand people who can't lose weight though, it's hardly rocket science.
  • That last five pounds just won't go away!!!!
  • lost 90 pounds so far but still 3 more stone to go !
  • NO I'm not happy. I've been going to the gym taking cycling classes and step classes and eating healthier but it's so hard because I LOVE FOOD! Right now I weigh 135 but thats alot for me becuase I'm only 5'3" my goal is 110 so I'm hoping I can get there in 2 months just in time for summer!!!! Any advice?
  • i'm 18, 5'6 and about 9 stone 7. i want to be 9 stone. but i'm not trying desperatley because i don't mind where i am, i'm curvy and my boyfriend loves me.
  • YES! 5'9" and 165 lbs. of muscle!
  • No, I'm not. I want to lose weight but I know that if I do so, people would be concerned as I'm already quite skinny. The only thing I'm doing about it is trying to learn to accept the way I look.
  • well for me right now I'm not happy with my weight. I needed to lose weight. I needed to do some exercising and other activities that requires me to lose some weights.
  • no i'm not happy with my weight i've been exercising and i lost 4 lbs last week but u cant tell i've tried almost every diet program there is since i had my daughter i havent been able to lose my weight again like i did b4 i had her
  • I'm a 140lbs and am still losing weight rather quickly (i've lost 7lbs in the last 2 weeks). I feel it is because its baby weight though from my son so easier to shift. I was only 108lbs before so i did feel huge compared to what weight i was used to and felt a bit dissatisfied. Recently though i've gotten used to having a little more meat on my bones and am now happy with how i look again ever though i'm nowhere near as small as i was. I'd still like to lose another 14lbs though if i'm honest.
  • No. I need to lose 30 lbs. I have lost 2 this week by substituting a high protein drink from Trader Joe's for one meal. 21 grams of protein and 2 carbs and 100 calories. I'm afraid to drink more than one because I think that might be too much protein. Comments anyone?
  • I havent been happy with my weight for a while, so Im on a mission to lose 30 pounds to get back to my ideal weight. I did some research and started out with this cleanse/detox and its honestly helped me get a great jump start on my weight loss!!
