What is the problem? Is it the weight or the mental attitude it leads to?

Question - (25 July 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 26 July 2009)
A male United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I am beginning to lose confidence in myself due to how hard it is trying to lose weight.

I need to do it for the right reasons but I always think to myself I should do it to imrpove my chances with women above anything else.

Thing is this isn't me. I want to meet someone and be with someone who doesn't care about outside appearances (but will hopefully still encourage me with weight loss for my own sake).

What is my real problem here? Is it my weight issues or an inability to find out where a partner and relationship would fit into my life being as I am?

its not that hard losing weight, eat normally, exercise 5 times a week. running/jogging for 30 mins (or what ever suits you) try exercising and cutting down food for 3 weeks and you'll see the difference. i used to think the same, i used to try hard losing weight at gyms and did different exercises but nothing worked until i started running/jogging i got results in 3 weeks. dont give up even if u dont lose 1kg in 3 weeks it takes time for some people.

exercising will give u a confidence boost!!! trust me! and dont be concerned about women... try being friends with new people e.g friends of friends... people at college/work etc... or wherever..... and having friends can lead to a girl that will really like u. dont try hard to get a girl... just chat normally with them.. ask them questions, be funny, talk about interesting stuff etc as u would with a friend... if she likes u then u wont have to do anything cos the magic will just happen... hanging out with people also boosts confidence.

remember always accept a person who loves u for who u are.

and there are lots of women out there who dont care about looks trust me. they only care about the person inside.

but i will still suggest u lose weight because it will make u feel important and it will give u loads of confidence.

and remember never try hard to get a women. just keep hanging out with people and friends etc... and a women who likes u will come to you. obviously i dont mean that dont do anything to get a women but just dont try hard. keep basic conversation with them chat normally as u would with a friend.
