Ht. 5'8", Start: 183 lb, Today: 183 lb, Goal: 175 lb - Okay, so i joined this site back when i was 16 during my sophomore year of high school. I was 233 lbs and wanted a big change for myself just like everyone else on here. I eventually went down to 175 where i felt my healthiest and strongest. Getting lower than 170 caused me to look sickly and i was starving myself to keep the weight off. I knew i needed to stop the low calorie diet and start working on my healthy eating habits at a more normal daily calorie intake. When i went to college i gained weight and got up to 195. Now im 183 and trying to get to my goal weight once again. I workout alot. i love to run and take zumba classes at my college. right now i have to work on my eating. so far despite my intense workouts the weight isnt slipping off as easy as it used to. when i was 16 it literally flew off! its a challenge that its slow going and is very frustrating but i have to keep the motivation and remember that this is not a fast process. i feel healthy, i feel strong, im eating good things. i just want this very badly and i will achieve it.
