Lose 10 pounds?


Quote  |  Reply
Does anyone know how I can lose 10 pounds fast?! I am sick of looking in the mirror and my rolls, it's disgusting. I'm 5'6 and I weigh 107. I would at least like to be 100. Tips, anyone???

You think you're fat at 5'6" 107lbs? What "rolls" are you talking about? 107 at 5'6" is already disgustingly skinny. You could probably GAIN a few pounds and STILL be nothing but skin and bones. Have a sandwich.
Ok, first of all - REALITY CHECK!  At 5'6" and 107lbs you don't have "rolls".  Secondly, you are not "disgusting".  You need to have a healthier body image if you intend to improve what your body looks like.

To tone up your body, you need to use weights or weight machines.  Also, have your body fat % tested.  For your height you should probably be between 18-25% body fat.  Body fat % will help you get a healthier body image because it's a more accurate portrayal of where you are than weight is.
Wow.... go to a doctor.
As a side note, try to love your body - every inch of it.  It's really the only you've got, so treat it well.
OMG

are these people real??

Why is  everyone who is posting UNDERWEIGHT and needs to PACK ON  a few lbs but is claiming of how "fat" they are.

I honeslty think they just want to be told " no , you are skinny , and beautiful! "

this is lame !
Normally I would agree with you nabilah but I am trying to be kinder these days (what with the healthier lifestyle and all).  Everybody has their own body image issues.  The more people I talk to here the more I realize how much self-loathing we allow ourselves to indulge in.  I weigh 380lbs - I've lost 26lbs recently.  I'm just trying to love my body and treat it well.  OF COURSE I want to lose weight but that goal is secondary to me accepting where I am and loving every inch of myself. 
Sweetheart... you are underweight.  What I would suggest to you is to see a doctor that specializes in nutrition and natural health (aka Naturopath) You need to be on a healthy diet and exercise routine. You cannot make your body look better just by shedding pounds.  If you work on gaining muscle tone and fitness your body will look better and you will fell better about yourself.  You will gain weight doing this because muscle weighs more than fat, but it looks better.  Naturally if you're starving yourself and mistreating your body it will hate you for it.  Your health will be jeopardized, as well as your appearance.  If you abuse yourself it will show. You will look unhealthy and it ages you!!!!  Someone who treats their body with respect will always look and feel better than someone who doesn't even if they are a few pounds over weight.  Please also look into some help for your self image and confidence.  I am a naturopathic doctor and I would love to help you if you have any questions!
eat something, hun. go see a doctor

I just have to say that the rolls you are seeing are probably your ribs.  My daughter is 5'7'', weights 127 and wears a size 4.  She is perfect.  You need help.  See a doctor

 

screw a sandwich, have a pound cake.
Sarah has awesome advice!  You are definitely not fat, but maybe just need a little toning up!  Please be healthy, as at your age, its important to eat healthy and keep your bone structure strong and sexy!
Is it improper to say that this person is most likely a "troll"?

With a screen name like that, no profile, and only this particular post, it does make me wonder.
Do you weigh 107 lb OR 107 kg???
I'm so glad someone finally asked it it was lbs or kgs.

Since some people have already given their advice (such as 'go see a doctor') without wondering why someone who is 107 lbs would be seeing rolls I realy hope it was lbs!
But... to be honest... if it were 107 kg, that would be like 235 pounds.  Losing 10 pounds wouldn't make the rolls disappear.

Heck, I started at 228, I'm down to 187, and I STILL have rolls, more than 40 pounds later!
Jacinda, I was wondering the same thing.

But in case you are not a troll, fatass, I would suggest several things:

Change your username.  Calling yourself nasty names is a sign of serious self confidence issues.

See a counselor or a therapist.  Thinking you are disgusting while being very underweight is a serious issue, and you will need help to overcome it.

Stop trying to lose more weight "fast".  Fast doesn't work, at any weight.  In fact, stop trying to lose weight at all.  You don't need to.  If you aren't pleased with how you look, get some exercise and get fit.
Since the title says "Lose 10 pounds?" I'd assume she is telling us that she weighs 107 pounds.

I just wanted to point out that when addressing this poster, we call her, according to her usernam, "fatass".

 

Does anyone else find this amusing?

(I'm also thinking troll, by the way. Do people have no lives?!)

What do yall mean by "troll"?
A troll is a person who makes multiple usernames and comes back just to harass people and stir up trouble. People who join, and that day make a really controversial post (and only that post) seem to be trolls. This is pretty much a text book example.
