Weight loss in a heartbeat or long term pain?
i'm almost 16 and I plan on taking these pills called Hoodia X57 to get down to a size 7 quick before i go back to school. I've recently lost weight through just excercise only with still eating the same foods when I was 20 pounds overweight. I am a tall individual so luckily my weight wasn't as evident as it wouldn've been on a very short person. But now school is about to begin and I've seen these what I calle skinny girls showing off their stomachs on myspace and it makes me insecure because even though my stomach is not large parts of me like many females I really don't like whic his basically my whole body. Has anyone taken this product with good results? should I take it?
last year when I was a freshman I was 5'7" and 173, now I am 5'8" and 155 according to my health teacher of last year I'm supposed to be 145 which is almosta size 7 or is it 8? anyways thats why I posted it.
At your age, you should not be taking Hoodia at all. I encourage you to talk to your parents about your weight concerns. If you are tall, and just looking to get down to a size 7, you are likely not very overweight. You don't really say what your current weight is, so we can't really properly tell you what you should or shouldn't be focusing on right now.
You had a key statement above. "it makes me insecure because even though my stomach is not large parts of me like many females I really don't like whic his basically my whole body". Many women suffer from poor body image like this for their entire lives. Even if they are not overweight, they still look in the mirror and find fault. This can be the basis for developing an eating disorder, and should be talked about with your parents or other adult now.
Don't be envious of those girls. Its what's on the inside that counts, not what you can show off to the world on myspace.
Good luck, and please talk to your mom or dad about the fact you are considering taking diet pills and are concerned about your weight.
Best,
