Losing weight and confidence... Please help

[Anonymous]

I need to lose weight, I'm 130 pounds and 5'2". I use to be a petite girl but just let myself go. I've been doing all the right things, cardio, strength training, only eating 1200-1500 calories a day and drinking more water than a fish. But I'm not losing anyway weight and I know I'm gonna lose my breasts. I know I should think that being small/flat chested and fit is better than overweight and bigger. But I don't want to. I don't want to resort to breast implants. Is it a promise I'll lose my breasts because I gained them with the rest of the weight? Is there anyway to prevent that from happening with out getting implants later?

Also my goal weight is 115lbs, is that still too big? I saw a girl one TV who was a D cup, 5'5" and 106lbs... So now I don't know.

It isn't always about how much you eat, but rather what you are eating. Some foods are harder to digest and will burn a lot of calories in the digestive process. If you are eating junk it pretty much, all gets stored as fat. Make sure to add fruits and veggies to your diet. Also you need to make sure you are eating about 6 small meals through the day. Make sure you are not working out too much. Your muscles need time to recover after a workout. Remember to take a good multivitamin.

You really don't sound over weight to me. So please be careful not to take it too far.

Decrease your calorie intake, and do more exercise.

You won't necessarily lose weight from your breasts.

It's hard to tell if 115 is too big. It'd depend on where you were holding the extra weight. Being pear-shaped is worse for you. (Carrying the extra weight around your belly.) It might be fine, if its evenly spread.

Her boobs were probably fake.

Yes you will lose quite a bit off your breasts.

One of the ways I lost a lot of fat was by eating a lot of meat. Basically a high protein diet. Stairmaster, cardio, yoga, etc etc. I would be sure to balance it though with a lot of fiber and greens and such, because otherwise--you'll spend hours on the potty and yeah...

Eat more protein. It's how body builders do it. Granted, you don't have to keep up the high protein forever, just until you feel you look good.

Ouch. There is nothing wrong with losing weight, just be healthy. A lot of guys that I'm friends with prefer girls with butts and boobs. So don't go overboard. Just take the dieting process slowly. You'll be surprised by just going to the gym on a regular basis can really make you feel more confident in yourself. Don't worry about how big or small your boobs are. Guys aren't that picky they're being intimate with a naked girl! :)

I know what helps me is when I don't focus on trying to loose weight but just trying to be healthy. it makes the process way more enjoyable. to me you sound perfect. and think about it when you get older and have kids, if your boobs are smaller than you will have less problems. they will grow if you have kids too. again don't worry about your weight. worry about being healthy it will take you further :) good luck

oh please stop .. I'm also 5'2 and am around 125 pounds ..

I don't find that I am ''fat''.. yes, I'll admit - I'm not bones but I'd rather be the size I am than..

you don't want implants either .. I'm a 32E and you can't get any of the nice pretty bras which are available for those below a DD.. Maybe that's just my town but it is horrible only being able to but white/black t shirt bras

So cheer up, you're great just the way you are ! :D

Um, your an E cup? So most of your weight is in your breasts? So you have nonidea what I'm talking about. Thanks though.

[turtletime]

not necessarily.. the point I'm trying to make is that losing weight/getting a boob job may not make you happy !

[Asker]

Thanks sweetheart

[toulouse]

is your q about not being able to lose weight or about worrying about your breasts?

[Asker]

I guess both? Haha, I know the weight loss needs to happen but I was wondering if I could best of both worlds and lose the weight without the breasts. And I was also asking about my target weight. If Its decent or if I should shoot a little lower.

You're breasts will get smaller but will still be proportional to your body.

5'2'' seems big to me but I'm 5'6'' 105 lbs.

Honestly breast implants are not the way to go:

a. they are EXPENSIVE

b. guys can tell when their feeling you up if your boobs are real or not

c. most guys like a variety of boob sizes anyways.
