First of all, don't feel miserable. you have to take into mind that physical beauty is just superficial. What is very important is that who you are as a person - that, alone, counts the most. Now, you know that you are overweight. That is a problem, really and so unhealthy. Because you know that such is a problem, you have to provide solutions for that. Exercise and diet are two main things that can shed off excess fats. You have to do this because this is right thing to do in order to live a healthy body. No more, no less. Focus and determination is the key. No one can help you except yourself.
