I lost 75 lbs so why am I depressed?!


Question: I lost 75 lbs so why am I depressed!?
I was always fat until now!. Kids teased me in school because I would sit on chairs and break them!. My stepfather would grab my arms or thighs and tell me how fat I was!. It was terrible!. My whole life I was obsessed with losing weight and now that I've reached my goal I don't know what to do!. People tell me I'm pretty all the time!. I don't believe them!. I never had a boyfriend before and I thought it was because of the way I looked!. I still don't get asked out but I find out guys do like me but I don't like most of them!. I feel more insecure than ever this isn't what I thought it would be!. I thought I would be happier and I'm not!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You could be depressed or just not familiar with how to deal with the new "you"!. I would suggest talking to a therapist and explaining your situation!. If you don't deal with this you'll end up going back to the "familiar" life you had before, the heavier you!. Sometimes when we do things a certain way for such a long time we find it difficult to adjust to the different ways in which people react to us after we've changed!. Basically you may need to unlearn your old way of thinking and adopt a new one that more accurately reflects the new, more attractive, you!. I wish you the best and be assured that you can be happy in your body!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

In the past unfortunately people judged you by the way that you looked!. Perhaps now you are still seeking that validation to help your self esteem!. Try going out with friends, joining a club, do something you have a passion for!. This will build up your self esteem and give you self worth!. Just keep being healthy and positive because it will attract the right people into your life!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You need some time to adjust to your 'new body'!. Try to do some things that you always wanted to do before but always thought you were too fat to do (sports, modeling, etc!.) This is the beginning of a new life, and you need to take baby steps until you are comfortable with yourself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You need to see a therapist/psychologist becuase you are depressed!. Its not your fault and you need to fix it, but you need help to fix it!.

Congrats on loosing all the weight! Unfortunatly now you realize the weight wasnt the onlyWww@Answer-Health@Com

I don't really know but I think its because you have been treated so badly in the past that it is staying with you and some people have body dismorphic syndrome where they don't see what other people see!. I think its horrible what your step dad did to you!.I think alot of people think if you lose weight life will be perfect but you first have to love yourself and you should be super proud you lost all that weight good job you rock and keep your head up and instead of seeing the negative state one thing u like about yourself and you'll start believing it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
