skinny body and large stomach

by doe_eyes, Jul 20, 2006 12:00AM
I am 5"7". I use to way 147lbs. but I went on a diet and lost
30lbs. My waist was smaller but I lost my butt and most of my breasts ,people started warning me and saying the body of an
8yr old isn't attractive. So I started eating more and stopped being so picky about every thing I ate. I did gain some weight but it all went to my stomach. I hate it so much.
To exaggerate I would say that I look like a skelaton 6 months
pregnant ,that might give you an idea.help.   katie

The best thing you can do is to start a good exercise regimen to include weightlifting and fix your diet.  What is your daily diet like now?

well I am pretty active.I do abb crunches and walk ,not
religously though.I do slack some.
Ever since I started to try to gain weight back I just eat whatever the family is eating cereal in the morning pasta,
lunch fruit, chicken, dinner yogurt, cereal. I started eating icecream and reeses peanut butter snacks. stuff like that.
a lot of it.    katie

You just answered your own question.  Fix your diet to consist of lean meats, leafy green veggies, whole grains, and count your calories!  Start an exercise regimen to include weight lifting and some additional form of cardio such as running, swimming, a sport, etc.

I agree with this advice; if you think about it it is right. You will lose the weight again, but you won't have the body of an eight year old (whoever told you that wasn't very nice anyway) if you're exercising and strength training you will have a lot of muscle tone and a very healthy sexy body that is right for the weight that you were meant to be. Good luck.

thank you
I will stick to a work out program to try to build muscle.
I won't give up  ,I'll keep on doing it ,and I'll get back on the diet and not eat anymore junkfood.I WILL BE SEXY.!!!!!!!
THAMKS AGAIN      

and yes I do have mean friends and family members ,but I won't let them discourage me.

I have heard that if you eat a carb-heavy diet, you WILL gain the weight in your mid section.  The only way to get rid of it is cardio and, of course, cutting your carbs down.  I hope this helps.

Another bit of advice is to start an exercise regimen where you are working ALL parts of your body simultaneously.  I do kickboxing cardio, have FUN working out and I have no problem keeping myself motivated to work out 5-6 days a week.  It also helps with getting your metabolism burning calories much faster!  After five minutes into the warm-up, you're sweating and you're heart rate is up and pumping.  

Kickboxing cardio has made me feel good about working out and the toning it does to all parts of your body, including your oblique muscles is phenomenal!  If you want a good cardio workout, just add weights to kickboxing like I have and you get a GREAT cardio workout!  Plus, you'll see the results start to show in as little as 3 weeks!  Then after six weeks, you'll see even more results; and the amount of energy you have is terrific!  At 34, I actually love working out again!  (I feel like I did when I was in my late teens and early twenties going to the gym at least 5 days a week).

YOU THINK THAT CECOPEXY CECUM FIXATION CAN CURE IBS - D


"To doctor Max Wilms (1867-1918), who discovered how to cure constipation with a simple operation that has been abandoned and forgotten by surgeons for decades. To patients, particularly women, who have suffered for many years not only their physical ailments, but also an authentic discrimination due to the lack of understanding by their relatives, physicians  and society in general."

The aim of this page is mainly to publicize our research and excellent results after more then 20 years and more than 600 patients treating constipation with cecopexy (cecum fixation), which is a simple surgical operation, very similar to the operation performed in cases of appendicitis, but with a lower risk (see the section on Cecopexy).

The relationship between constipation and mobile cecum was recently demonstrated in a study performed in Cuba by Dr. Maura Bouza, under supervision of Dr. Ahmed Guzmán.

Headaches, meteorism, hypermenorrhea or dyspareunia  are some of the accompanying symptoms of chronic constipation (see the section on Constipation). Those symptoms also disappear after cecopexy if they are not caused by other etiologies.

We also try to promote the use of this same technique to treat the irritable bowel syndrome or spastic colon. We think that the use of cecopexy to treat the irritable bowel syndrome is offered for the first time in the history of medicine as a specific treatment for this frequent and annoying disease (see the section on Spastic Colon).

The surgical technique and results of cecopexy for the treatment of chronic idiopathic constipation, as well as its historical background, can be read in our book Constipation is a Disease, that can be downloaded as a compressed file by clicking on the section Free Book.

We wish that our research and endeavors are helpful, both to physicians and patients.

Should you have any question, have further interest in our techniques, or wish to make a comment, criticism or suggestion, send us a message (click on E-mail) or write to:

Hello Katie

Not to get you alarnmed because not every BODY has the same body. I have your same problem I am small. My weight is 120-125 it goes up and down. I am skinny and my belly is big, I also can pass for a 6 month pregnant woman at times.  I wake up with the  belly a small one, but it's there. By the end of the day it is big. I wanted to tell you I have IBS (so I was told). I get bloaded for the slightiest thing I eat. I just want it to let you know consult your Dr. before you start doing what ever you do.
I joined a gym. I eat better. and still the problem is there. Now like I said Every Body is different.  and This is just my opinion. See a stomache Dr. what are they called umm gastro- something. nini

I'm IBS too and I have that problem. My stomach is small in the morning and as soon as I eat a complex carb such as lettuce, cabbage, etc. my stomach will get big. I just stay away from that food.
