Will you STARVE to be SLIM?

Honestly starving yourself is the worst way to loose weight caust not only areyou loosing fat but you are loosing muscle too. For me yes I am over weight and to be honest I am ok with it. All that matters to me is that my husband still desires to be with me andloves me the same today as he did the day we got married.

Oh my. Must we go there? lol
Yes, I have starved.. Yes, I will not allow myself to weigh over a certain amount. I have exercised all my life since my early teens. I don't use pills or special drinks, but I have been known to go to bed hungry on more than one occasion. I had a mother that would not allow her daughters to become overweight without being ridiculed. I feel terribly guilty and ugly if I gain a few pains over my acceptable weight. I know that sounds horrible but that is the way I am programmed, to coin a phrase. I don't go into any programs, I know what works for me and I do it. Mostly no junk food and plenty of physical work and exercise. I do eat healthy and I am lucky, I actually like health foods.

To answer your question...no. I will not starve myself to be skinney. As that doesn't work for me because the meds I take cause me to gain weight. I have skipped meals before. But not to be thin. I have skipped them because I felt full from the last meal. I do however watch what I eat. i cut down on suagrs, fats and other things out of my diet. Not to get thin. But because of health reasons. Cutting the sugars and fat out. I don't seem to be as hungry as I once was.

I don't think I still need to starve. You don't want to see me ending up like a skeleton, LOL. I need to eat A LOT. I am taking supplement for detoxification though. You already know I have those dreaded allergies. So, where you going to take me for dinner? You need to fatten me up.:P

I've given up on trying to be slim. My body just isn't built for it. When I was young my grandmother used to stand me in front of a mirror in my underwear and yell at me for every bit of extra fat on my body, even when I was within or under what the doctor said was the right weight for my body. Because of this I spent a long time feeling like I wasn't good enough because I couldn't wear the small sizes other girls wore, and it caused me a lot of pain. However, since starving was part of my everyday life as a child without my having a choice in the matter, I could NEVER intentionally starve myself now, for any reason.

Once in a while I do feel like I would like to be a little slimmer, but I only try to lose weight in healthy ways, like eating better foods and getting more exercise. I want to be physically strong, and that isn't possible if you are starving yourself.

I know a lot of people think I am fat now, even though I am nearly at the weight that I should be. However, there are also many people who admire me because I have feminine curves, and people who look up to me because of my personality. So it doesn't matter to me anymore what stupid people say about my body, and even my grandmother's voice in my head can't upset me now.=)

If I starved myself to be slim there wouldn't be anything left of me, I'm already naturally thin (105 pounds although I have to admit I haven't weighed myself in quite a while so I could be a bit more) and if I cut down on anything especially food it's really bad for me. I always need to eat just to keep my weight at a reasonable level (I'd love to way a bit more, but I can never eat quick enough as it all burns away) otherwise I feel ill and weak.

NO. i won't starve myself to be slim. It is not a healthy way to lose weight. I've heard of many people dying because of crash diets. i won't go for slimming pills, tea either. We can't be sure if they are effective and am afraid of the adverse effects. I am willing to go under a liposuction or the melting of fats if really needed. But for now am content with my weight ..hehehe

I will admit that I get a lot of help from genes on this topic so I don't really worry/care about it. Although I'm not THAT thin either. To me health is more important than size. I will eat as much of whatever food I need to eat to be healthy,. I will exercise as much or as little as I need to to feel good. I think skeleton thin is just as if not more unhealthy and dangerous os being obese. As long as I'm somewhere in between an healthy, I'll be happy.

Actually i dont care.I have some extra killos, but there are men who like the real women, not skeletons.So why to be in histeria just because this is my constitution?:-)No way.

No, I would never starve myself to be thin. I have always been underweight and it is as miserable to be made fun of being thin as it is to be overweight. I could never find clothes to fit when I was younger and I was asked as a teen if I was anorexic, which I found was very insulting.
I think all people can be beautiful if they have a nice attitude and are confident in themselves. My husband is overweight and yet he is gorgeous! He has a confidence about him that is unbelieveable and he knows that he is heavy but he doesn't mind it. He knows it is hard on him but he won't go without eating much.
I have one child who is thin and one who is heavy and I think the second one is much more confident in herself than the thin one.
