Really self-concious about my weight?
So im about 5 foot 6, and weigh about 110(give or take a few pounds, im not sure). Anyways my family is really judgmental, i get called fat by my parents, especially by my older brother, and my younger brother also learned that its okay to call me fat. All my brothers are like stick thin, but i happen to be the only one who came out chunkier. Im ok in my shoulders and arms, and my stomach could be better, but its my legs that are the problems. my calves are fine, but my thighs just suddenly explode. I dont have a big butt of hips or anything, but when i sit down i just feel like my thighs are psread out or something and it makes me really self-conscious. I exercise when i can, but i have a lot of homework so it usually does not work out. and i LOVE food, i just can't help it. i get cravings, and then they just won't stop. So i really dont know what my question is, i just need some advise on how to lose weight or something! anything! Thanks!

Umm i don't think a lot of peope say the but it works REALLY WELL, eat and chew slower because it takes 20 minutes for the human brain to realize it is full, and if you eat slower then your saliva will break down the food for better digestion. but don't think this will magically make you slim, eat 1200-2100 calories PER DAY and eat small portions. DO NOT starve yourself, you'll gain MORE weight. ANyways....hope this helped! Please Answer mine?

at 5'6" 110 lbs you are considered to be underweight you are not fat if you lose any more weight you will actually do damage to your body just because your family is twigs which in my opinion is less attractive than someone with some extra weight but in your case you need to gain a few lbs. i can not morally give you any advise on weight loss personally i would love to be able to meet your family and beat them you have to excuse my anger but stuff like this pisses me off. next time your brothers say something just tell them girls find twig guys to be less than men or something along the lines and say that they wish they were as beautiful as you

I'm with the others, you are not over weight or fat
If you feel you need to drop a few more pounds my suggestion is
that you drink water instead of sodas, eat half of what you normally
eat and exercise
