Struggling with Weight, WHY?

Question

I'm 6'0", I got into modeling at the age of 17, I weighed 133 pounds, lets just say i wasnt eating right. After my modelling aspirations grew tiresome, now at the age of 21, I assumed REGULAR eating habits. My weight sky rocketed to 189lbs. The heaviest I've been in my life. My weight soared and my self confidence plummeted. I didn't eat unhealthily either. Did my meabolism change as I got older? Can it really slow down THAT much? I started a food journal that really helps me, I do cardio about 3 times a week, and barn work and riding my horse about 5 times a week. I'm active, always on the go, I never sit around doing nothing! I STILL didn't lose weight. So, I went to the doctor and advised I do this food journal. I did. She found nothing wrong with how I eat and said I'm not losing weight because I don't need to. What an answer. So now, I'm starving myself, abusing laxatives and the weights coming off. WHY cant I lose weight like normal people with diet & exercise? =(

Answer 1

Because you abused your metabolism when you we're modeling. Eating is essential to having a fast metabolism, if you weren't eating it slowed waaaay down. So now when you eat "regularly" it is all stored as fat.

Answer 2

When you were modeling your body mass index (BMI) was 18, which is underweight. Now your BMI is 25.6, slightly above healthy. Starving yourself is the worst possible thing to do to lose weight, it slows your metabolism down. Your body knows it is starving so is know holding on to everthing you eat. Your doctor was right, there is nothing wrong with how you eat and nothing is wrong with you.

Losing weight take time. If done correctly, you should lost 1-2 pounds a week. If you lose more you risk harming your body.

At this point in time you are at risk of developing or already have an eating disorder. Perhaps you should see a therapist instead--you need help.

Answer 3

Try super aboba...'Super ABOBA' is a slimming product that takes advantage of a method of slimming which targets each individual blood group. The name ABOBA is derived from the 4 major blood types “AB”, “O”, “B” & “A”.The idea to slim down through targeting individual blood groups is not new. It has proven to be extremely popular in Japan and Korea for some time.

There have been numerous researches in the last few years on how each type of food react differently to people of the 4 blood types. Capitalising on this research, Super ABOBA has been developed and formulated with food ingredients to help each blood type achieve a slimming effect.
Food and supplements contain protein called lectins. When we eat, these lectins will cause a chemical reaction between our blood and they will either be rejected or accepted by the body, depending on the pre-programmed blood types. If the lectins are incompatible with our blood type, a process known as agglutination occurs. Agglutination is the clumping of cells by incompatible lectins in the body. This may lead to an imbalance in digestion, metabolism and immune 'Super aboba' is made up of natural food product.
