Answer 1

If you are so concerned with your looks why don't you save up some money and do something about it? Get your hair done or your nails. Do something that will make YOU feel better about yourself. Don't be concerned with what others think. I know it hurts for ppl to say mean things about it, but don't just sit back and take it, especially from your bf. Take a test, too. That way you will know one way or the other if you are going to have a baby.

Answer 2

You may want to loose a few pounds for health reasons, but your not extremely overweight. Also, if your bf is telling you you look fat he must not be a very considerate. He should be telling you that you are beautiful even with some excess weight. You may be going to the bathroom a lot for many reason. Are you drinking more often? Have you been tested for diabetes? One sign of diabetes is frequent urination. I doubt that you are pregnant, and I hope you are not because your bf does not sound very supportive.

Also, why did you include such a negative description of your looks? I think that you may have some body issues. My teeth aren't perfect either, but that's not the first thing I'm going to focus on when describing my looks. Focus on things you like about yourself, no one is perfect and that's perfectly okay!

Answer 3

I don't think you are fat at all. If you take a pregnancy test now, it might give you a false negative. I say this because the pregnancy hormone will not usually show up until after you've missed your monthly. Wait a couple of weeks to see if you start and if you don't--go ahead and buy a test.
Also I think you should tell your boyfriend how you feel about the comments he makes about your weight and I bet he won't do it again. The important thing is that you feel good about yourself. Don't worry too much about what other people say. Good luck with everything!

Answer 4

You're 53 and 160 lbs? Yes you are overweight, I don't think you need to ask us to know that! Your bf did you a favor telling you that the clothes you wear are to small! Why get pissed hearing the truth? If you don't like how you look, then do something about it. You can fix the acne and frizzy hair, it will help your teeth not look so bad! You might want to learn how to spell pregnant just in case you are! You know, it would be preg, not prag!

Answer 5

If you're not even due for your period for "another week or two" then you would have JUST conceived if you are indeed pregnant. There's no way you'd be showing. If you are happy at the weight and size that you are, then ignore other peoples comments. Learn to handle it. People will ALWAYS be teased and picked on about something. Weight being the #1 thing people are rude and mean about. If you aren't happy being the weight that you are, talk to your doctor about a healthy way to get rid of the extra pounds. Your doctor will know exactly what the right weight for you is.

Answer 6

So are you asking if we think you are fat or if we think you are pregnant? As for the fat thing, that is your call. If you are comfortable with yourself then forget about what other people say. If you don't like the way you look, do something about it. Diet and exercise will improve your health and your looks and possibly your self esteem. Are you pregnant or not? All you can do it take a test either at home, at a doctor's office, or at a clinic. Wait to see if you skip a period or not, though.

Answer 7

Well, you shouldn't let someone else make you feel bad about yourself if you are happy. I would 1st get a home test & find out if you are preggo.

Your bmi is 28.3. This is what is said about the bmi: Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
You are in the overweight area, for health reasons you may want to try to lose weight if you aren't preggo. If you do decide to try & drop a few lbs, do it for you, not for them. If you don't like the way you look w/ your weight, change it, don't cry about it-be strong. Love you for you-the good & the bad.

Answer 8

Honey, first of all, you are probably not pregnant, just overweight. However, it seems obvious to us that you have serious issues with your body image. I am 5'7 and was 250 when I met my husband. I got down to 200, but I've gained a lot back and then I got pregnant.

I don't like that your boyfriend is complaining about your size. (or was he just making an honest comment - that the shirt WAS too small and would roll up at the bottom and show your belly?). But if he seems to have a problem with your weight, get rid of him! You do not need a guy to make you happy. I always had really low self-esteem and wouldn't even give men the chance to be with me because of my weight. I always was afraid that they would not want to have anything to do with me. When i was 27, I started a new job, and the guy that was going to train me was SOOOOO attractive and I thought - wow, I'd never be able to get him. I soon found out he'd had lots of girlfriends, and they were pretty much thin and attractive.

He says that when he first met me, he thought "I have to be with her!' It took a couples of months for me to give him a chance, but now we're married and expecting our first baby and he is wonderful. I still have issues with my weight, but he tells me that I am perfect for him - even though I know some of the other girls he used to date and they weren't bigger at all.

My husband actually wants me to wear clothes that are smaller - he likes tight jeans an tight shirts and being with him has made me realize that there are guys out there for everybody. I was lucky when I met him that I had just started to improve myself confidence.

You need confidence, and we can't give it to you - and a man can't give it to you. You are still so young, and you still have time to blossom into something even more beautiful - trust me - from experience. Stop selling yourself short and work on changing the things about you that you don't like.

You are much much smaller than me and you don't need to go around feeling bad about yourself. Stop focusing on what is on the outside, get some goals, and work on them.

Answer 9

You probably just have a big belly. When I gain weight that is where I gain it then I look pregnant when I am not. I am actually pregnant now and I look double pregnant. That darn belly is hard to get rid of if that is where you naturally gain weight. You have to do some exercise and watch what your eating... eat smaller portions.

Answer 10

Sounds like there is a thinking problem regardless of your weight. Plus judging by your avatar name, I wonder if you fixate on this too much. Take a pg test to ease your mind, then work on your self esteem either way. Dont take that as cruel, everyone should work on their self esteem - thats a good thing.
