Should I sacrifice food, just so I can look better?

[Anonymous]

well I'm not overweight. but I'm definitely not skinny either.

I'm 48.5kg, 156.5cm tall and Asian. (guess that explains the height) and by the way, most Asian girls are stick-thin.

it's just that, I have flab on my tummy, my waist's about 28inches and considering that I'm kinda short.. I have to choose my outfits quite carefully. my arms are pretty big (about 10inches circumference) because I have toned biceps, but flabby triceps.

i really love food, and I don't like exercise, of course.

I'm not fat, but I was just thinking, should I sacrifice my love for food just so I can look a bit better?

of course the best solution for me would be to stop being so lazy and gluttony but.. I don't know. if you were me, would you control your food intake when you absolutely love food and have an exercise routine which you are kinda reluctant to follow just to look better?

do I make any sense at all? :/

thanks in advance for any answers, anyway :)

I think it makes sense. Though on the odd chance you are asking to get rid of food or cut down on food, I would suggest against it. Mainly because if you eat too little your body starts thinking it's starving and only bad things happen from there. Still I don't think that's what you were talking about, so I'm not going to get into that. You can still eat well, and eat healthy, so long as you balance it well, and eat in smaller amounts more frequently. Consulting a dietician might be a good plan. Still don't worry too much about having a little fat on you. It's actually good for you to have at least some. Plus there's a lot of guys out there who would prefer just a little baby fat over a rock hard stomach. You don't need to be little miss six pack. Just sayin'. Anyway, just eat well, balance your meals, and maybe consult a dietician or something. Maybe look up some recipes on the internet. Don't worry.

Girl, I love the living crap out of food. I think about food all the time, but I also love being in shape and fitting into my clothes.

Eat healthy 90% of the time. Log your calories, weigh and measure your food and watch your portion sizes.

There is no fad diets or anything crazy to it. Just cut portion sizes and cut out junk food the majority of the time.

go the ''guy'' way. eat what you want (but you should at least find healthier alternatives) but work it off,exercise can be enjoyable,it will give you the looks you want,health,energy,a hobby-of course you don't feel like working out-but food is awesome and so is being healthy and good looking,so it's worth it.
