I'm 14 and I'm not fat, but a little on the chubby side.?
I hate my body. I hate the disgusting folds in my side when I bend sideways. I hate how my stomach goes past my average sized boobs. And the worst is my thighs, cuz that's the obvious part. I know I think about my fat too much. I get on the scales too much. And I probably look up losing weight too much. But I don't think I can help it. I'm not fat, not obese, but i'm not skinny. Not even average really. You can't tell i have much on me by looking once but you know everyone knows you aren't the slimmest and you know that yourself. I can't think of what to think when you can physically hold your fat. I am determined to lose it. But have you ever found that you're reaaally determined for about 3 days and you simply can't be bothered to any more ''just for today'' but then that day passes and you still can't be bothered so you think that because you're not actually fat YET you don't need to do anything. All i'm asking is have any of you gone through this too? AND can you pleease please give me some reason or motivate me to do something about it, cuz it's only gonna get worse but i cant get myself to do anything about it. No hate please thanks :)
Can a guy be a little chubby and atractive?
I'm in highschool, I'm not talking fat or even over weight, I just mean with a little soft belly and not much defined muscle (but still muscular underneath the layer of chub) Because my cousin said girls think chubby guys are cute. I'm not talkin' personality I'm talkin' looks only!
What should I do? I’m a little chubby, but I’m not saying that I’m overweight. I want to lose some fat without gaining muscles because I already have some. I’m in a teenager, and I just want to slim down.
How to lose weight:You must be at caloric deficit in order to lose fat/weight.You can lose body fat by being at a caloric deficit, which can be done by:1# Eat less than the calories you burn per day (calorie intake - (*BMR + expended calories))2# Do some cardio that helps you burn more calories than you need in a day3# Increase your BMR by weight training. This causes your basal metabolic rate to increase, which increases the amount of calories you burn at rest!*BMR - BASAL METABOLIC RATE (Calories burned at rest) - you can figure this out with a machine at the gym or doctors or you can count calories for a few weeks and estimate what your BMR is.Counting calories is a tool for your fitness and nutrition toolbox. It is something you can do when you want to cut down in body fat. It is a misconception that cardio is the best way to lose weight! Counting calories is the fastest and most efficient way to cut down the fat and keep the muscle you have.Loosing 1lb of fat per week is a good way to lose fat and conserve muscle!Many people believe counting calories is a tedious tasks and it can be at the beginning when you have never done it before!After awhile you do definitely get used to it and it actually becomes convenient, because all your meals are pretty much made and set out for you!For the most part, you can just eat pretty healthy year round with some cheat meals and outside food on occasion.I teach how to count calories and track properly in this video:Summer:Winter:For example:My weight usually likes to stay in these ranges:Summer weight = ~ 118 to 120 lbs (1200–1400 calories/ day)Winter =~ 125 to 130 lbs (1500–2000 calories/day)I can master my weight fluctuation by around+/- 10 lbsYou need to learn what your numbers are! Let me know if you need help :)
Honestly, is a little chubby okay?
ok, so i've always thought myself to be pretty. I mean people always compliment me on my eyes and face. but I'm a little chubby, not fat, but a tad bit bigger than i want to be. I'm a 36C cup, and many guys have complimented me on my "backside" but all the guys I like don't ever like me back. is it because im not super thin? would you be attracted to a girl who was a bit chubby?
Do I look Fat, Chubby, or a tiny bit overweight?
I know I'm not skinny, but GUESS MY WEIGHT! My height is 5'3 and I'm 13. I know, don't even say for me not to worry but everyone at my school is sooooo skinny and I'm so self conscious about myself as any other girl. ~ Legs: http://www.flickr.com/photos/77914170@N06/6994155476/in/photostream Side: http://www.flickr.com/photos/77914170@N06/6994155138/in/photostream Front: http://www.flickr.com/photos/77914170@N06/6994154722/in/photostream ~ In the front one, I feel like my left leg is a little bigger than my right don't you think? ~ Do you think I'm Fat, Chubby, or a little OverWeight? WHAT YOU YOU THINK I WEIGH???
Boyfriend said that I'm getting a little chubby.?
My boyfriend and I were sitting on the couch the other night. He's been disappointed in himself for gaining weight and made a comment about he feels fat. I said I've gained a little weight too (about 10 pounds... I'm 5'5" and 134 pounds) he said "Yeah, we've gained weight. I'm huge and you've gotten a little chu.." and then cut himself off before he said chubby. Mind you, he's 6'2" and about 270 pounds with a big belly. He's definitely overweight. I've gained an extra 10 pounds in the past couple of months because I'm in nursing school and have been incredibly busy and haven't been eating well prepared meals at home. I was a little offended, but drop it and didn't make a big issue out of it. However, now I feel a little annoyed and also a little insecure when I'm around him nude. It kind of killed my sex drive for him. Right after he started to say what he did he acted like he was putting his foot in his mouth, laughed and said "I'm sorry, Babe, you're beautiful." But now I'm insecure and a little offended. He's said in the past, despite he himself being overweight, that he's not attracted to overweight girls. He's been pretty blunt about it and at times sounds rather shallow. However, he eats junk (pizza, ice cream, etc) and has gained about 30 pounds since we've been together over the past year... and I've gained a little too. How would you respond to his comment? Should I not be offended? I know that I have gained a little weight, but I wouldn't call me fat or chubby at all. Maybe just a little "squishy" around the mid-section. Thoughts?
Why do I look so fat but weigh so little?
you may be thinking something is bad when it is not.You also may be both underweight and overfat at the same time.BMI is an obsolete metric that really should not be used clinically. Unfortunately,many physicians do not have adequate training in quantitative methods to understand that point.The real metric instead of BMI to look at is Fat Free Mass Index, which is like BMI, but looks at fat free mass. You almost certainly have a low, fat free mass index, one low enough to be dangerous.Low fat-free mass as a marker of mortality in community-dwelling healthy elderly subjects †Other important metrics are body fat percentage. When you have low fat free mass index, it is easier to have higher body fat percentage. Anything over 30% is dangerous.Body fat percentage - WikipediaWaist hip ratio is a measure of distribution of fat. high levels of belly fat or visceral fat can be very dangerous even if your body fat percentage is not in the danger zone.Waist–hip ratio - WikipediaMy advice: read the literature as best you can. Find a qualified professional that can answer your questions and shows some familiarity with the literature. That may be a little hard to find. You’ll need to fine a non-traditional medical provider. I also suspect your makeup is a bit unusual.I am NOT a medical provider. My own read on the literature is that folks that have low fat free mass index and higher than optimal body fat percentage have the worse of both worlds and are at one of the highest risks for health problems. I don’ think that issue is getting anything like the attention is deserves.Lowering of muscle levels may be one the reasons some people that lose weight have trouble keeping it off.
Why do I have chubby cheeks even though I'm skinny?
Fat deposits are heridetary. You probably have a square face also. With broad cheek bones.Fat deposits determine the shape of our hips , our arms, not usually our face - although could be possible . More likely your check bones- which you can always fix with plastic surgery: basically you can change any feature about you nowadays.
