what i mean is, im not happy about myself, my looks ; i did have a goal to get in shape (not losing weight or anything, but work my butt out, & run) but i lack the motivation..
& my confidence is gone & im always alone and pushing people away from me. my only company is music, i listen to music when im alone..
my love life isnt going well, ive been single for a year now & i feel like i need someone but then i want to be solo, but all that solo stuff change when i see my friends (couples) always around me & i feel like such a bother i go somewhere else.
i see people all happy and satisfied when im here trying to do me & find myself..
i feel left out of the loop. i dont mind but i dont enjoy it either..
what can i do to stop focusing on them and more on me, how do i get motivated again?
how can i smile & mean it, how can i enjoy having people around other than avoiding them..
ugh i need help.
Open Question: pain in knee when it is bent?
February 9th, 2010
So I am about 190lbs and 5'5. I have 2 kids and never had this happen before!
For the last week or so my left knee is popping when I unbend it, and when it is bent its like unbelieveable warm pain is in my knee and it will not go away until I unbend my knee and make it pop. It hurts so bad! I use to have it pop when I bent down, but nothing to bad. but now its horrible. what should I do? And dont say lose weight, because I know its not helping but its not the whole reason! I need to know what is causing the pain and if I should see a doctor. Because it keeps me up at night because I need to keep the leg straight.
Open Question: Question about losing weight and getting a tattoo around the ankle?
February 9th, 2010
I'm going to get a tattoo around my ankle that will look like an anklet. The problem is should I wait after I lose weight to get the tattoo. It's my first one and I want it to look good. Could I go ahead get it now, or does the ankle area change if you lose weight? I'm going to have the lap-band surgery in April. I wanted to get my tattoo done in march though when I turn 18. What would be the best decision to make if you were in my position?

Like what did you do, workout, and how you ate.
Open Question: Confused about calorie deficit vs. minimum calories needed?
February 9th, 2010
Ok, so I know going under 1000 or so puts your body in starvation mode (bad) and that ladies need at least 1200 a day. Cool. However let's say I eat 1500 cal a day and my cal output is 2600...that mean by body only "keeps" 900 cal, so is that going to put my body in starve mode too? Or I am totally messed up on the math here? Urg, I'm just trying to lose weight the healthy way, and be able to maintain when I get to my goal weight. My thinking about this case has been very uptight (best answer if you also know what movie that's from!) Ok thanks everyone!

Open Question: Bra sizing issues! The online calculators aren’t working correctly for me?
February 9th, 2010
When I calculate the band width (29) and add 5 like sites say to do I get 34.
Then when calculating my bust, I get 33. I'm supposed to subtract band width from bust. Which would mean I would be left with a negative one. (which is smaller than a AA) However, I actually am not flat. I would think I qualify for a B cup. I have recently undergone a lot of weight loss, which has changed my regular size of a 34 C... hence why I am trying to find the right size again. How can I find the right size if the measurements won't work correctly? I have tried tens of sites... Any help???

Open Question: Losing weight without looking disproportionate?
February 9th, 2010
I want to lose about 25 pounds but I'm scared I'm going to look like a bobblehead. If you look at Sherri Shepherd or Star Jones, they look thinner but something looks off about them. Like their head looks like it's too big...I don't know how to describe it.
There's this lady at my gym, and even though she's thin, I could tell she used to be big because there's just something that looks off. You know what I mean?
Example:

Anyways, how do I lose weight without ending up looking disproportionate?
