Nicole, I know what it is like to have self esteem issues...I havehad them all my life. I have learned that the more unhappy you are about yourself the more likely you won't treat your body as you should because you will quit caring. I had to learn to smile again, I would look in the morror and plaster a fake smile on my face and then wear it all day, then one day I realized my smile was there on its own. You say you are at your lightest weight, that is something to be proud of , something you should give yourself a big pat on the back for, because you have worked to reach this weight and its a big accomplishment. I hate it when I hit a plateau, seems like nothing I do works, so I add a few more reps onto my exercise routine, or I add another walk or even another mile to a walk. I will also switch up my routine which gets my body out of a rutt. Youa re 19 years old, don't rush love it will happen, but first you got to love yourself before someone else will love oyu, self confidence plays a major part in attraction between couples. Insecurrity is a turn off to a lot of people. I wish I could hug you....don't be too ahrd on yourself, givent ime all your goals will be reached if you work hard att hem. It's easy to become discouraged, but I have a feeling youa re strong enough to overcome discouragement and reach your goals. Hang in there!!
