I am also trying to lose 15 pounds in the 3 weeks before school starts. Maybe we could be weight loss buddies. I am currently 5'4 and 165 pounds and would like to be 150 by the time school starts. Then hopefully 140 lbs. by Christmas. When I was in the 6th grade going to 7th I lost 30lbs in one summer but gained it all back within a year. Often times, I am ridiculed by my peers for being overweight which has caused me to become depressed and miss a lot of days of school. I was also extremely ill for a school year with abdominal migraines and acid reflux and became extremely thin from not being able to eat and when i began eating normally again i once again became overweight. Which made everyone talk about me. Well I must get going..Keep in touch!
