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
by Debris - the new slimline version. on September 28th, 2007
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 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.

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!
by Punny on September 28th, 2007
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!!!
by Lippycow on September 28th, 2007
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.

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....

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.

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
by Sheriff Raff -Answerhag on October 3rd, 2007
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.
by Meleggles on February 23rd, 2008
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.
by greenleopard on December 7th, 2007

by DA BEN DAN yanggui zi on December 3rd, 2007
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.
by Sunshine1 on November 4th, 2007
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 :)
by Bride2B on November 4th, 2007
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?
by American idle on September 28th, 2007
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)!
by shammers still slogging along on August 29th, 2009
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?
by Anonymous on March 9th, 2009
lost 90 pounds so far but still 3 more stone to go !
by Rocket on March 5th, 2009
That last five pounds just won't go away!!!!
by GLAM71 on September 22nd, 2008
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

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

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.
by meowry on July 26th, 2008
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.
by Bsweet. on July 26th, 2008
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.:-)+
by PixieDust_and_DemonHorns on July 26th, 2008
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.
by jollyholly on July 24th, 2008
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.
by RosieB on July 11th, 2008
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 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!!
by crabmed on May 22nd, 2008
I'm 5 ft flat and I weigh 46 kg. I'm happy with it..
by Disko Fari on May 8th, 2008

by maggie on April 28th, 2008
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.
by miffixxx on April 18th, 2008
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 !!!
by Anonymous on April 11th, 2008
Im 5'6 and 116
I could take some lbs off
by angelzz on April 11th, 2008
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
by Lady Lissa on March 3rd, 2008
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.
by Wickels on February 13th, 2008
I am mildly displeased with my weight. Not displeased enough to watch what I eat or exersise, though.
by Jane on February 13th, 2008
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
by Galeanda on February 10th, 2008
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.
by kp2008 on February 4th, 2008
no im not but i try and do something about it-- not doi ng very well tho lol =S
by Ed the Jetpacking Headbanger on February 2nd, 2008
No, I need to get motivated to work out more often and avoid bad foods.
by missydawn on November 21st, 2007
I'm 5'8, and 130 pounds. I fell like a big fat cow. I was 120 and it was so nice.... :-(
by L Anon has a Blank spot in her heart on October 3rd, 2007
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"!
by haggis on October 3rd, 2007
yeah, i am!
by Jenniferocious on October 3rd, 2007
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.
by Firebrand on October 3rd, 2007
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.
by Gina on October 3rd, 2007
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..
by slothmister on September 30th, 2007
No and no, but I should do.
by Anonymous on September 30th, 2007
I want to add a few pounds, and I hope they go to the chest area.
=)
by Ruby Doomsday on September 30th, 2007
Yep. and I work really hard to maintain it too!
by SarahK on September 30th, 2007
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. :)
