Recently I've been feeling depressed, and I'm not talking about suicidal depression I'm just questioning things about myself. I've even been questioning my relationship with my friends. Like if I should still be their friends because I've been feeling that they have a bad impression on my personality. Anyway where I'm getting at is I don't like who I am. And I want to channel this by losing weight. Please don't try to persuade me to do anything else I just want to lose weight. I've tried to lose weight but I'm not devoted enough to it. I'm young so I have a lot of free time. And when I'm at school I do feel motivated to work out but when I get home I always find myself laying on my bed watching youtube videos. And during the weekends I find myself doing the same thing. So can somebody out there help me out and tell me how to become more motivated.

You need to read some books about nutrition so you know how to eat right. Calories have nothing to do with it. You should be eating about 0.4 gram of complete protein per pound of body weight every day, counting only 6 grams per egg, 12 grams per glass of milk, and 24 grams per quarter pound of meat. Eat veggies with every meal, or whole grain bread every day, to keep your bowel movements regular.
Fat is made of carbon and hydrogen. The only way it comes out of the body is if it is turned into carbon dioxide and water and then it comes out through the lungs. So that involves a lot of heavy breathing, and that means jogging or aerobic dancing. Figure on losing one pound per week when you are doing things right.
The first line of defense against depression and anxiety is B vitamins. Get nutritional yeast powder and/or B-100 pills. Vitamin B2 is a water soluble dye that turns urine bright yellow. When the color fades, it's time for another dose.
Here are a few ways people can take care of their weight without exercise:
1 Eat small frequent meals so that they are digested easily. When you eat large amounts of food in one go, it takes a long time to digest and leads to weight gain. Try to follow a schedule of eating and never miss a meal.
2 Restrict your sugar intake. This will help to keep a check on your weight and also help to prevent or manage diabetes. Added sugars contain more calories. Instead, eat sugar in naturally occurring forms. Fruits contain natural sugar.

They have no nutrients and they also hinder the absorption of calcium in the body, leading to softening of the bones and other bone degenerative diseases.
5 Do not follow any fad diet blindly. Although these diets seem to be very lucrative and may show immediate results, but sometimes they become difficult to follow after a while. Also, such diets are unable to supply all the essential nutrients to the body in the required amount. This could lead to various nutritional deficiencies.
6 Drink lots of water. Our body is composed primarily of water and it is important to drink lots of water in order to remove all the waste from the body.
