Being conscious of your body at this age is intense, it basically sneaks its way into your head and stays there. The easiest thing I can say is that later on in life, regardless of how your body looks, people will love you for you and not for how your body looks. Sure it does play a part, but if someone loves you for your body first and your persona second, you will be better off with someone else.
Right, so how do we make this better? Gym is nice to go to but if you can't afford the gym fees, there are many things you can do at home that will help. First and foremost, start jogging. Cardio will help to make your heart stronger and burn some of the fat. To improve muscle tone, try weights. Note that you can literally use anything for weight, water bottles, bricks, cylinder blocks, textbooks, chairs, tables etc as long as you are careful! They can hurt you if done incorrectly.
Start slowly, seeing no improvement for 6 weeks is pretty much par for the course, MEANINGFUL developments show up at around 3 months of continuous workout. If you can, eat more chicken which will give you more protein in your diet and help grow muscle tissue. Try pushups and some crunches but be aware that if you don't lose the fat by your abdomen, the muscle buildup will make it look like you are gaining weight.
Drink water instead of fizzy drinks! Being hydrated helps as well. Once you start doing continuous workouts, you will see the change. If you feel unmotivated, try working out with a friend! A gym does not have to be the be all and end all for becoming fit, use what you have!
On a side note, girls will always be attracted to fit guys. They will get interested in what they see because from a biological standpoint, that should mean a better chance of healthy offspring. However, this does not mean that because of your current body type, things will not work out. Keep a positive attitude and remember that being healthy is the key goal here, the benefits will follow! Don't be afraid of your body, you only get one, so while you are working out, appreciate it to the max. It may not look like what you want it to, but there are people who can't do anything with their body too.
Good luck Anonymous, go for it and keep it positive yeah!

Let me tell you something. The problem is YOU. Whatever you're doing at the gym is clearly not working. It took me about a year of lifting to finally realize what worked for me.
How much money do you have? Find a gym that is cheap. Planet Fitness is only $10 a month. Cutting out bad food? You don't need to do this. It's calories in vs. calories out. You are born with flaws on your body as everyone else has. However, you have to put your foot down and make a change about it.
Just message me if you're serious about this.

Nahh..
when u have a real girlfriend.. u ll know it doesn't matter that much..
Its like when i ask u what girl u wanna be with physically... u ll define all kinds of perfect ways ur girl can be physically..
But in reality you're not really drooling for a girl like that.. but just the one who understands you loves you and is presentable (physically).
Instead just be confident.. and carry yourself with confidence to those parties.. and be the best guy (naturewise) .. Its sufficient for girls to dump all those guys for you.
You carry your charm in the way u talk etc...Hey u have to go to sleep but message me I am in same situation I want to help you out
