😞Is it true? How can I rid....

Question

Hello, I am a broke college student. I weigh about 240lbs and carry my weight well. I have a figure 8 shape. Some days I love the way I look, other days I am ashamed. Not to mention I have stretch marks. 
I eat to be satisfied, I don’t have time to eat lunch or breakfast some days. When I do, it’s healthy foods. I don’t eat sugary stuff, aaannnd I barely drink water. So, I think that right there, the food part of the diet is alright, but I need to drink more water.
When I go out, I feel like I am supposed to look like this girl or that one. I just feel like I am like WAAAAYYY too overweight. **Keep in mind** Everyone in my immediate family are big. Could this be genetics? I know that’s not an excuse. 
Any at home tricks to lose cellulite, water weight, etc??? I barely have time to exercise because of school...which I am there all day and have homework through 11pm. 
Help!

Answer

Ok no offense but you wouldn’t be overweight if you were eating “healthy” and the right portions all the time, and extra fat isn’t caused simply by not drinking enough water. If you actually want to change you’ll need to be honest with yourself look at what and how much you’re eating and exercise

Answer

You need to see a nutritionist. Walk us through everything you eat in a day. If everyone in your family is ‘large’ it’s because everyone in your family is around each other and all have the same shared unhealthy lifestyle. Medical students can get to the gym, so, you can too. 30 mins intense workout a day will chance a lot.

Answer

Unfortunately you can’t avoid making lifestyle changes if you want to make body changes. Skipping meals isn’t necessarily helping- eat balanced, healthy meals as others suggested, with healthy portion sizes. Eating regularly is important so you aren’t starving and then eating more or crap to compensate. Do up your water intake because it will also curb your hunger. Getting a little active will also help. Even just a brisk walk or a quick 20 min at home workout. Doesn’t have to be a full gym session to be constructive.

Answer

Try to eat breakfast and lunch to lower the chance of overeating at night (not sure if you do or not, but it can happen if you deprive yourself during the day) 
Fill up on fruits and veggies and protein. Limit processed foods. Drink more water!!! That will help with water retention (water weight) move your body- bike/walk etc. Be kind to yourself! I haven’t seen you obviously but I’m sure you are beautiful

Answer

Not eating breakfast is bad. Eating bfast in the morning gets your metabolism going rather than being at bay and storing the snacks that you eat. 
You have to drink water. Cellulite is genetic and even skinny people have it. Nothing will make it reslly go away- u can buy some things to make it go away (go to a dermatologist).

Answer

It’s actually really possible to not eat enough which can cause issues with weight loss.. I have a muscular build at 240, yes to most people that sounds “fat” but I have a sporty build and carry it well because not much of it is fat.. if you do want to lose weight it’s important you eat enough food or your body won’t ever get rid of any weight because it’s in starvation mode

Answer

I usually start my day out with a big glass of water before I do or have anything else.
 Ideally I like to drink a gallon of water a day but of course that won't always be a realistic goal.
I have an app called "Lose it" it's a calorie counter and you give it your actual weight and your goal weight then it tells you how many calories you should be consuming a day in order to lose weight. 
Through out the day you have to log your calories from what you eat.
Also, I use to drink so much soda but once I cut out soda I've noticed a big difference in not only my weight but my attitude and energy. 
Another thing you can try is cutting out carbs like bread, pasta etc.
Good luck on your journey and feel free to message me❣️

Answer

You need to make sure what you're eating is really healthy, and watch your portions.   Most vegetables and whole grains, some protein, less fruit, more water.  Try not to skip meals.  And then you need to add exercise and make sure your calories dont creep up in response to your increased activity level.
