I am 5'2 and weighs almost 160 pounds. I am the biggest person in my family and I am tired of looking in the mirror and seeing a fat unhappy person. What can I do? I want to gain confidence so please any tips would help thanks

Is your unhappiness caused by your weight?

What diets have you tried?

I used cardio and basic stuff like special k.. I lost a little but I still feel bad. I don't use pills or anything but I use portion control too.

I think you have to give it some time - good, solid nutrition, exercise, whatever works for you.

I have friends who have achieved great success with Weight Watchers. I don't think I would do well with that. Rather than the weekly weigh in I simply wouldn't show up.

Thanks

I appreciate help from kind people like you. Its nice to know there are people like you in the world.

If we don't support each other, what's it all worth?

You need to find what works for you - I LOVE working out with weights; cardio not so much. Just be sensible.

Certainly 5'2" and 160 isn't obese and I'm sure with some concentrated effort the extra weight will come off.
