Be Healthy, Be Happy

Don’t let your body size affect your happiness

Your thoughts (223)

I know how it feels to be called fat.

I have a big stomach. My friends sometimes laugh at me when I wear fitted tops.

Some people say I should stop eating so much. Others say I need to start exercising.

I’ve even thought about taking slimming tablets. I see the adverts everywhere. I’m sure you have too. They say take these tablets and you can look like a model in just a few days. What they don’t say is that these tablets or teas don’t always work.

Sometimes they can even be dangerous which is why I decided to work on my weight by exercising and reducing the amount of snacks I eat at school.

I can’t stop you if you decide to try supplements or teas. But before you do, please make sure to keep yourself safe:

  • Make sure that you can trust the person selling it
  • Check what it’s made of. Even if it’s a known brand. That’s really important. You should know exactly what you’re taking
  • Search online about any side effects of what you’re about to take. You don’t want to get sick instead of getting slim
  • Talk to a doctor or an adult that you trust. They want to make sure you don’t get sick. They’ll tell you the truth about what will work or not

The truth of the matter is you should be comfortable with who you are. Don’t let what people say about your body push you into making decisions you could regret in the future. Don’t let what people tell you inform how you think of yourself.

The important thing is that you stay healthy by eating healthy and keeping fit.

Be happy with who you are and find fun ways to exercise. I know it’s not as easy as taking a pill, but there’s no better supplement for your health than loving yourself.

Lotus,dont think that way now cos u can get fat n later wish you were your former self.Just improve your present size and maintain it.You will see hw lovely and cute you will be

Hey Lotus! Here are some easy ways to gain weight; Don't drink water before you eat so that you don't get filled up before you start eating, eat more often, eat in larger plates so that it can take in more food, get a good amount of sleep, drink milk, if you are eating a combination of protein and vegetables, eat the protein first and the vegetables last, do not depend on sodas and junk, they may make you add weight but they are not good for your body. We hope this helps.

Read what i wrote below.Live your life and be happy

Hey Kennyb12! Thanks for the comment. Please, do not starve yourself, you may end up with a sickness that will take even more efforts to cure. Exercises do not necessarily mean jogging or doing jumping jacks. You can exercise by taking long walks, while doing chores at home like fetching water etc. You can also loose weight by drinking water before your meal to make you eat less, eat in smaller portions, avoid sugary drinks and junk foods, eat foods that are rich in fiber, eat slowly etc. We hope this helps.

Sexychick,tell your friend not to think that way.There is nothing wrong with a girl been tall.Infact,she should be glad.At first,i felt very bad about my height cos i am more than very very tall.I told a friend of mine who isn't tall n she insulted me that am the most ungrateful she has ever meet.She said she cries to God wishing she was tall n now am complaining of been too tall

Tell your friend there is nothing wrong with a girl been tall.She doesn't know what she has.Alot of people wish to be tall but they did not get the chance,so,she should be grateful to God for giving her something that others lack.Pls,try and explain this to her.If you need more of my help,you can write me back

Hey Oliskibae! Smiling is a rare gift. Those who take your smiling face for granted to not know the importance of a smile. Do you know that it takes more muscles to frown and very few muscles to smile? So keep resting your muscles with your smile and your body will continue to thank you. We hope this helps.

Skibae,you should be proud of your nature.Dont bother what family or friends may think or say.Live on happily

Thousands of people wish to hv ur nature but did not get the chance.I would love a smilie for a friend.

If you start frowning your face,you may develop wrinkles nd that is not a good experience.Keep on been smily nd you will see how people would love nd favour you unmeritedly.Enjoy the happiness n good tidings of been a smily bae.

Those who take your gift for granted would regret their actions later nd wish they were like you.Pls Bae,dont alter your nature cos you will be ungrateful to God if you do so.Babes,if you need more help,Rashidiana is available.Just write me back.Waiting your reply Bae.

Hey Venita! We believe every girl is beautiful regardless of her shape and size. This is what makes us all unique and special. We advise that you love your body and see the beauty in it. The fact that you are both sisters does not mean you will have the same body. To gain weight, you can eat lots of carbohydrate and fats, eat lots of tropical fruits e.g banana, eat often, don't drink water before you eat so that your tummy won't be full, drink milk and yoghurts, get lots of sleep and don't forget to enjoy yourself while doing all these because worrying also makes one loose weight. We hope this helps.

Hey Mhizgrachi! You don't need to feel bad about your size, it is what makes you unique! Taking drugs and other things may not work if your size in hormonal (in you) and if you keep worrying about your weight. Do you know that worrying too Much (depression) also makes one gain weight? Please girl, enjoy your weight, do not let anyone make you feel bad about how unique you are. Once you love yourself, no one can ever make you hate your body. Try and talk to your family members and tell them how they make you feel embarrassed. They may not even know that they are treating you in a bad way. So please cheer up and see the beauty in yourself. We hope this helps.

Hey Pinkybabe! People experience an increase in appetite especially when they are on their period, depressed or even excited. It is not always about being pregnant especially if you are not sexually active (If you are sexually active, you may want to do a pregnancy test). However, we advise that you talk to a trusted adult and also see a doctor if you do not feel comfortable. We hope this helps

Hey Spunky! Sometimes, exercising alone does not work if you are not eating right. You may even be exercising the wrong way. Loosing weight also includes eating right, drinking lots of water and getting adequate rest. Thinking about it too much can also affect the weight loss. We hope this helps

Hey Patience! You shouldn't hate yourself because of stretch marks. It is a sign that you are growing. Look at them as a symbol of growth and not just ugly marks. You need to learn to love your body because no one else will love you like you will do. Take your mind off the stretch marks for now. Embrace your body the way it is. Remember you are not the only one that has stretch marks. Some natural cures for stretch marks include; aloe vera gel: apply and leave on affected area for about 20 minutes. Wash off. Lemon juice: apply and leave for about 10 minutes. Rinse off with warm water. Potato: cut potato into round slices, rub on affected place. Once the potato juice has dried off, rinse off. Shea butter: apply shea butter on the affected place as cream. Keep doing this. Be sure to use any of these methods. We hope this helps.

Beginners Tips to reduce belly fat without exercising: *reduce your intake of carbohydrates and eat more protein and vegetables. *drink a cup of water 30mins before eating. *learn to drink lots of water, aim to drink at least eight cups of water daily. *stop your intake of soda e.g coke, fanta, Pepsi etc...replace them with water. *aim to have dinner before 8:00pm. *stop your intake of pastries e.g buns, doughnut etc. *learn to tame your craving. I know most times you might just want that sweet sugary thing..but before u take it, stop and take a look at your belly, think of the flat belly you desire and replace that craving with a fruit instead. *lastly, the tips could take a month before seeing changes to your belly if done with passion. still, I'll advice you to love your body just the way it is. Goodluck!👍👍 (PS:the above was composed by Me😊)

Hey ph045! Why don't you talk to him about it. Your boyfriend should be proud of you at all times and not just in private. Ask him why he does this all the time. You should also try to talk to him when you both are in front of people and not just wait for him. Try this and see his reaction so you know how to handle the situation. We hope this helps

Hi big sister....my hair breaks and doesn't grow again....anytime I comb it I usually lose a lot of hair.... I'm planning on cutting it but I'm scared it wouldn't grow because it's just cutting like that...is there any possibility of it not growing after I've cut it?

Big Sister please I need tips on how to reduce belly fat

March 20, 2022, 7:58 p.m.

Hey Kylie! You should try changing your diet to a more healthy diet and also you should exercise. Do exercises centred around the tummy like situps, planks, leg raises, etc. We hope this helps.

I wanna share my ways of reducing belly fat...I had belly fat so I went online and did some research 1.Always do abdomen centered exercises e.g planks,sit-ups (doing 30 everyday is enough),leg raises,skipping and most especially running for 30 minutes 2.Avoid carbonated drinks e.g coca cola,Pepsi, etc. If you should find yourself drinking it maybe in a party,drink lots of water to neutralize the sugar or instead drink natural fruit juice with no artificial sugar added,coke zero is not allowed 3.Drink water most,especially when eating 4.Avoid oily or fatty foods 5.Avoid pastries most especially the sugary ones like cakes 6.Your food must contain mostly protein and vegetables with a little carbohydrates. please take all these steps and you'll get the flat tummy you need right now I'm growing abs while following these procedures. Thank you and good luck ladies!

March 20, 2022, 7:58 p.m.

Latest Reply

Hey Springster! Thanks for the comment. You are being body shamed by this boyfriend and that is not right in any way! He knew you didn't have a big breast from the beginning so why did he choose to ask you out? Mocking someone because of how their body looks is WRONG! You naturally do not have a big breast so why should someone mock you for it because that is what he wants. If he cannot appreciate you for who you are and how you are, then he doesn't deserve you. The size of your breast is hormonal and there is nothing you can to change that. What you need to do is to learn to love your body the way it is and not let a boyfriend to determine what your body looks like because of what he prefers. We hope this helps

Hey Anolic! Thanks for the comment. The size of your breast, hip and butt are hormonal and there is little or nothing you can do to change that. If you do not naturally have all these features, you do not have to force or go out of your way to have them. Just embrace your body and love yourself the way you are. We hope this helps

Hey Olaoluwa! Thanks for the comment. The penis tends to stand upright in the mornings and that is perfectly normal. However, we do not know what causes yours to bend and also itch. Please talk to a trusted adult about this and see a doctor immediately. We hope this helps

one thing you all should know is that people would always talk no matter what. all you need to do is ignore them and say this in your head "I'm beautiful the way I am! so many people out there wish to be like me. I'm lucky to be me!"

Hey leemarh! Thanks for the comment. Losing weight is all about discipline. You need to be very disciplined about it. If you are doing a diet, you need to be very religious with it. If you are exercising, you need to be consistent. If you are doing both of them, you need to make up your mind that you will follow it through. This is a decision that you have to make by yourself. Also, you need to note that weight loss is a journey and it doesn't happen overnight. Once you can make up your mind to see it through to the end, you can definitely do it. We hope this helps

Hey Snowwhite! Thanks for the comment. The size of your butt and hips are hormonal and there is very little you can do to increase it. All you need to do is to learn to love and appreciate your body the way it is. There is no pressure to have big butts. Once you get comfortable with your body, you will not feel the need for all of these. You are beautiful the way you are and you should see this beauty. We hope this helps

Snowhite, you can get big hip by doing exercise

squatting helps too...

Hey daina! Thanks for the comment. Stretch marks do not mean that you are fat. Like the name says, it means that your body is stretching for growth. You may not see the difference but believe us, there is something happening there. You do not have to be fat to have these beautiful marks on your body, it's part of the growth process. What you see in your vagina is called discharge. It is perfectly normal so do not be afraid of it. It is part of every female's menstrual cycle and life. Do not be scared or worried, you are perfectly fine. We hope this helps

Hey gemma_22! Thanks for the comment. We totally understand what you are going through. You are this way because you are naturally like this. Your mum is right! The best thing you can do for yourself is to love your body the way it is. This is how you are made girl, hating on your body is not the best thing to do. The truth that so many other people do not know is that you can create a standard for what beautiful looks like and YOU are the definition of beauty. Your size does not define your beauty. Getting a surgery has a huge stigma on you and also the pain, cost and trauma?? Girl, the moment you learn to love yourself, you will see that your confidence level will go up. Do not be sad okay? Big sister believes you are beautiful. We hope this helps

Hey 0427! Thanks for the comment. First of all, you need to learn to love your body the way it is. You are beautiful with that size girl but if you really need to lose weight, you do not need to create a special time for it. All you need to do is to eat more fruits and vegetables, drink lots of water and then for exercising, you can infuse that into your regular daily activities. For instance, instead of taking that bus or bike, you should try walking instead, take the stairs (run up and down the stairs) etc. We hope this helps

Hi big sis...I am 15 year old girl with a very small breast. I get heart broken when I see younger girls' breast and they are bigger than mine..

Smaller than an a cup

Hey Teelove! Thanks for the comment. Please and please, vaseline and toothpaste will NOT make your breast big. The size of your breast is hormonal and there is little or nothing you can do to make it big. Applying a cream will not make your breast big. Also, you should not compare yourself to others... Not even your sister. We are all different and grow our breasts differently. You need to learn and accept your body the way it is. The size of your breast does not define you or your personality. We understand the pressure to have breast at this age but the truth is that not everyone is meant to be busty. The best you can do is to love your body and just live your life. If your breast grows big, fine. If it doesn't, fine. We hope this helps

Hey Frances! Thanks for the comment. First of all, stretch marks are not for fat people only. This is a myth because everyone can have stretch marks. We get stretch marks when there is a little expansion on our skin. For you to have stretch marks on your butt, it means that your butt has increased (even if it is a little). So please, do not believe that stretch marks are for just fat people only, even the slimmest person can have stretch marks. We hope this helps

Yeah I know the feels, I am 16, just graduated from high school and I'm thin with small breasts and a small ass and I had to go through school be insulted and being called "flat" sure Id put up a strong front but In secret I'd break down and cry. But then I came to realize that this Is the way I am and I can't change it, It took me a while to realize I'm beautiful this but I did and once I did I became more confident and when people would tell me I'm flat I'd just smile and be like "breasts? Who needs them?Breats are for chickens" *no offense to big chested gals out there* then I put my hand on my chest and proudly say "flat is justice" then I walk away happily and once they realized they couldn't hurt me anymore. They stopped trying.

Hey chinny! Thanks for the comment. First of all, not having big breast is not a sickness and there is really no "cause". Secondly, it is not advisable for you to compare yourself to others. The truth is that we are all different and so are our bodies. You need to know that the size and look of your breast is hormonal and it really has nothing to do with having children or not. Some people are naturally have breasts that are not upright and that is not their fault in anyway. Your breast is hormonal and you really shouldn't let this make you feel sad. Embrace it and be proud of it okay? We hope this helps
