Unique Challenges for Students/Teens
I was hoping to gain some perspective from my fellow Student/Teen LCers about the unique challenges facing us.
I know for myself that, as a 25 year old guy, the whole diet thing is looked on as being 'weird'. I keep hearing "You carry it really well" and "Dude, guys don't diet. What are you? Gay?" Even all of my past girlfriends seemed to really dig the big me. It made them fell safe, blah blah blah. So basically what I am saying is that, at least for me, I get very little positive outside support.
I want to hear your opinions. What problems do you guys have that you feel are unique to you as a Student/Teen on LC? I've come to realize that this battle isn't so much what I EAT as what I THINK. If I can understand you I can better understand myself.
