Hmm, that's rather demotivating, alright.
Aaah, the Gazette~! Well, they are fairly popular already, so I'm sure the price won't change TOO much. Didn't they just finish a concert tour, recently? o.O Busy lads!
Aaaah, I see. *nods* Well, I can certainly understand being self-concious, though I'm quite sure there is no need to. But if it's about liking yourself, then, I wholeheartedly agree on getting a bit more in shape. ^^
I think I know what you mean... but thinner people or just attractive people in general usually deal with both sides of the knife. They get a lot of people who will like them on instant, but they'll also get as many people who'll dislike them on instant. More the latter then the first.
I'm sure no one looks at you and thinks something negative... though you know... sometimes you're just not sure. A couple of years ago I dyed my hair a dark green, with the philosophy behind it of, "at least then I know WHY people are looking at me." It's very unsettling to notice people looking at you, especially if you've already got somewhat low self-esteem. Doubting happens so easily.
The Wii games are actually quite good for keeping in shape - like, say, to keep up your condition on days that you're not going to the gym, or if you wish to simply maintain your current body weight. To get more in shape, it's not usually all that beneficial, but it's a great addition to a work-out and is definitely sufficient if you just want to maintain your level of fitness.
The whole "oooh, purrdy" and "ugh, fat" thing... I think most women have that. I know I do... but then again I've often been 'accused' of having very low self-esteem and self-confidence, so it might just be that. XD
Running out in public can be... eeeh... tricky. it's more pleasant if you have a bit of a secluded area to run in.
A treadmill certainly helps. And walking is fun - hurray for the library, too.
You probably won't be able to feel comfortable in a bathing suit until you feel wholly comfortable naked... and until you get that, well-! I think it's less a matter of changing your appearance, though, and more a matter of changing your inner self. You need someone who can genuinely tell you, on a daily basis, how fabulous you are. Believe me, it does wonders to your self confidence.
