Ht. 5'2", Start: 265 lb, Today: 226 lb (BMI: 41), Goal: 135 lb - so this week was horrible, working and school have made me very stressed which has caused me to eat. I know there should be no excuses so in general it's my fault. I'm so close to losing a total of 50 pounds and i'm just going to pick up the slack this week. I know how bad it was so i wont weigh myself now, i'll work really hard this week and hope that i can get down to atleast 225. LETS DO THIS LOL =)

Ht. 5'11", Start: 226 lb, Today: 179 lb (BMI: 25), Goal: 150 lb - Wow. School is almost over and I'll be going home soon. This is scary. Does this scare anyone else? I worry because I have made pretty good progress in my weight loss and am about 5lbs away from a "healthy bmi" but I fear that when I return home, my diet is going to fall apart. I've always been fat growing up and the food my family eats is very different from what has helped me succeed up to this point. I really have fallen into a groove. Eat my cal limit, hit 110 grams of protein, only "clean" foods, and 5-6 mealls/day. My family does not do this at all and it may make them upset. How have you guys dealt with this?

Ht. 5'2", Start: 265 lb, Today: 226 lb (BMI: 41), Goal: 135 lb - So i weighed myself sunday and lost two pounds. I am very happy that i'm losing weight but I get so frustrated that i'm losing the weight so slowly. I know that we should lose 1 to 3 pounds a week and i don't expect to lose 5 or 10 pounds in a week but 3 pounds instead of 1 would be good. Well i guess i just have to work harder it's been a very long jounrey in 10 months i've lost 39 pounds. I've had alot of set backs and thats why it's taken so long but i'm glad that i've learned not to give up. I've been dealing with this my whole life and this is the first time i've made it a life long change. I will change a few things in my diet to start losing at least 2 pounds instead of 1 a week. I wish everyone luck the rest of the week =)

Ht. 5'4", Start: 248.5 lb, Today: 219.5 lb (BMI: 38), Goal: 170 lb - So this past week has not been very great for me. I fell off the wagon and hit the ground hard. But I start the gym tomorrow with my sister. I truly believe the gym will really help get my motivation on track. With falling off the wagon it reminded me of how I felt before I started my weight loss journey and it wasn't a good feeling. I got the "cheating" out of my system and I am ready to go, go , go....and lose, lose, lose!! :) Good luck everyone!

Ht. 5'1", Start: 204 lb, Today: 124.8 lb (BMI: 24), Goal: 110 lb - Haven't been eating much in the last few days. Personal issues and all that lovely jazz =). I used to turn to food for comfort when I had things going on, but lately, even thinking of food disgusts me. Does anyone else's eating patterns change depending on mood or am I just weird that way? I'd really like to get back on schedule with normal eating habits soon (I'm starving! lol)...

Ht. 5'2", Start: 265 lb, Today: 228 lb (BMI: 42), Goal: 135 lb - so today was my last day of classes and now spring break is here. Being home makes it easier to eat healthier but the workout is harder since i don't have a gym. What i'm planning to do starting today is continuing my insanity workout and joining it with some videos on excerise tv.com and some strength training. I'm going to work really really hard my next small goal is 9 pounds. This week is going to be insane =)

Ht. 5'4", Start: 239.8 lb, Today: 184.7 lb (BMI: 32), Goal: 135 lb - so its been 7 days and my weight is exactly the same....and i haven't had one carb in the past 10 days, no sweets, bread, pasta, or potatoes which happen to be my favorites lol (of course) so this atkins thing is about to get tossed out the window, i'll commit for the rest of the month but...i just expected more. it's possibly my fault though because i did little to no working out all week, two days one hour each day...so definately not progress. *jogging tomorrow for sure*

Ht. 5'4", Start: 248.5 lb, Today: 219.5 lb (BMI: 38), Goal: 170 lb - I lost 5 more pounds! 29 down, 50 to go and I am feeling great! I was really worried about this weigh in so I am oober ecstatic about 5 pounds. So what I am experiencing in my journey right now is being tired of food. It will be dinner time and I will be hungry but I just don't want anything...I am tired of chicken and turkey, I am not a fan of fish. It's kind of funny that I am bored and don't know what to do with food and yet I am a culinary student. But if anyone has simply tasty recipes or knows where to get some let me know please. Well thats all from me, hope everyone is doing well.

Ht. 5'11", Start: 276 lb, Today: 254 lb (BMI: 35), Goal: 169 lb - It's hard, I need more motivation. I've started giving myself a cheat meal once a week, so I don't end up bingeing. It's just enough to get me through this. I hope to lose another 20ish lbs by May. Good luck to everyone else.

Ht. 5'2", Start: 265 lb, Today: 228 lb (BMI: 42), Goal: 135 lb - Another pound down, this processes is becoming a very slow one but it's better than not losing any weight at all. I see alot of changes in my body but for some reason that's just not enough. I need to get out of the 200's soon because it's really bothering me but i am proud of where i stand today compared to nine months ago. This is not easy man!!

Ht. 5'4", Start: 248.5 lb, Today: 224.5 lb (BMI: 39), Goal: 170 lb - Okay, weigh in week is here and I am not at all excited. Having a menstrual cycle sucks. I have been tired and hungry. I seriously feel like an animal, I ravaged through food at night and slept all day. But I am crossing my fingers that I have at least gone down one pound. I am not happy with myself but I know it's just my period. I hope everyone else is doing well :)

Ht. 5'1", Start: 204 lb, Today: 125.8 lb (BMI: 24), Goal: 110 lb - I have a question for all you girls out there: does your mentrual cycle mess up your weight loss at all? Mine's becoming a real issue: I CAN'T stop eating to save my life. Seriously, anything I set my eyes on, I eat - it's insane! I'm just now recovering from my all-out binge and I"m worried it's going to happen again next month. If anyone has problems with weight gain during their period, do you have any useful tips or suggestions that could help?
