I think it’s about time to give up weight loss. All my life I dream to be thin. One more dream that will never come true.
Do you have body image issues? Or do you accept yourself the way you are?

I’m tall and lanky, but any weight goes to the stomach , so I have to be careful what I eat, other than that, yes I have learned to accept the way my body looks

I’m okay with the way I am. I’m still happy. But I could stand to lose a little, if anything to help with my diabetes. At different times when I was eating a little more carefully, the nurse I talked to affter a blood test would tell me my diabetes was pretty much in remission.
It would be nice to lose a ton, but I’d really have to be able to sustain eating quite a bit less for a long period of time. If I can lose just a little, all of the clothes in my closet would fit well and that would be nice. So maybe I should just keep trying and see how I do.

I have an unhealthy relationship with my body, weight and how my body looks means too much to me. I wish it were different but idk… the worst was when I was overweight bc I judged myself so much. I lost 50-60 lbs so I feel a little bit better but yea this is a good topic u raised that will make me think a little bit more

I’m okay with my body the way it is as I’m still a normal weight despite my AP-enhanced appetite, but I’m still trying to lose weight. I had an eating disorder in the past so I’m trying my best not to revert back to those behaviors. I have a small frame which is the main reason for my losing weight.

I’m overweight with a BMI of 29-30 and a body fat % 22%. I’ve gone up to 202lbs but it’s hardly noticeable. I have to say, it takes a lot of motivation to lift weights & run to maintain my physique though there are some days/weeks/months where injury/health or things out of your control can affect your exercise routine.

If anything, I’m trying to gain weight after a diet of nothing but alcohol for a long time. I’m 5’11" and up to 154 lbs so far. Lots of ice cream… Yes, I like my body because it’s mine.

I’ve accepted that I’ll never be normal-sized, but I’m trying to lose weight anyways to avoid diabetes and heart-problems.
I don’t think of myself as too big, but people keep telling me they worry for my health due to overweight. I don’t want people to worry for me.
I have somewhat accepted being the way I am, but I don’t like it.
I want to look beautiful and healthy, I want to fit into normal clothes, I want to wear a bra I didn’t pay overprice for due to boobs being too big for regular ones. And I want to be able to move without feeling like my body aches from the weight I’m carrying. I also want to be able to run without things bouncing anywhere, and to walk around in hot weather without having my thighs burn from rubbing against each other, and to not having my jeans get worn out fast from the constant friction.

i am not happy with my body, when i lost weight i started to feel better about it but i was mentally unstable from not being on meds, now im the heaviest ive ever been in my life and i hate it i want to be at a healthy weight and look good but i dont have the willpower to fight the urge to overeat because of the insane appetite i have, makes me sad and partially wish i was just dead

Yeah the meds have made me overweight but I have not given up.
I’m continuing to watch my diet.
I also plan to keep more active even though it’s difficult on these sedating meds.
Never give up people!

I’m pretty overweight for someone of my gender and height. I’m uncomfortable with this being the case and I’m trying to change it but I don’t really have an idea of where and how to start though I’m very slowly trying to make a plan for weight loss. Other than that, I do have parts of me that I like in spite of the weight.
