Okay everyone, I am having a major dilema...For the first time I am not happy with my looks. I recently had to undergo two major surgeries and during the recovery along with the help of the steroids I was put on I gained almost thirty pounds. I have been working my bum off...literally. It just doesn't seem to want to come off as easily as it came on!

I am afraid that I am not beautiful anymore...which is shallow, I understand. I just don't know what to do...HELP.

It is always best when taking any type of a steriod medicine to drink plenty of water and walk alot. Also cut out salt from your diet. This helped me lose 65 pounds since January.

Thanks everyone, but I am still feeling a bit down. I go to the gym three times a week now and I am on a stupid diet...I have way more appreciation for my old looks now.

It takes time and you need to love who you are not how much you weigh or what your body looks like. Once you feel great on the inside the outside just seems to follow.

happy Thanks so much. I need to work on the whole self esteem thing I suppose. I have noticed that I just don't get attention from men anymore...maybe cause I am always so down??? Oh well, something to think about!

Self esteem plays a big role in everything in our lives.

never comes off as easy as you put it on---
drink plenty of fluids, studies show it does not have to be just water
continue to eat right- do not starve your body, and exercise
3 years ago my weight was 250--
i cut out all sodas, including diet and went to the gym
have maintained my current weight for a long time-
be patient, do not deprive yourself of your favorite foods sometimes, and it will happen

Your body style has nothing to do with that. It's you personality and the way you carry yourself, confident, attractive and kindness.flowerforyou

to a certain degree--- some people are attracted to certain looks no matter how confident you are you will never meet their expectations
