Ht. 5'8", Start: 225 lb, Today: 165.8 lb (BMI: 25), Goal: 160 lb - ahh getting so close! :) in the past like, 10 days i've lost 5 pounds. I dunno how I did it. actually i do, i was very strict with calories. i stayed under 1400 the whole time, eating what i want though, so i didnt feel like i was dieting at all. only 5.8 more pounds until my mini goal! and then after that, 10 pounds to my ultimate goal of 150! I CANT BELIEVE im this close!!! i remember being 225lbs and thinking it was impossible. its not impossible, it just takes time. hope everyone is doing amazing, good luck

Ht. 5'6", Start: 225 lb, Today: 225 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 180 lb - Hi you guys......Today i decided that i'm tired of being as big as i am, and so i have decided to go to the gym. The problem is that i don't like going to the gym because i feel that its only skinny people that go there, and i feel like they are going to stare at me and just look at me weird, or think that they are better than me because they are thin.
I have not been able to loose weight because i'm so scared of what others might think when they see me walking my dogs, or doing excersise at the gym. I am just not confident, and i need help. And it gets me so frustrated that i think this way.
can anyone give me some advice?!?!!

Ht. 5'8", Start: 225 lb, Today: 168.6 lb (BMI: 26), Goal: 160 lb - So i decided that posting my goal weight as 150 kind of makes me feel like i've got so far to go, so my mini goal is now 160. I think this way it seems more attainable. I recently started a job at McDonalds... now I know what you're thinking... temptation. But really, I havent eaten there at all and never really feel the urge to. Once you're back there in the kitchen it really doesn't seem as appetizing. I usually only have diet Coke when i'm working. It's weird, most people would gain weight working there but I've actually lost almost 2 pounds lol Hope it continues. Good luck everyone!

Ht. 5'4", Start: 175 lb, Today: 152 lb (BMI: 26), Goal: 130 lb - Hey everyone. i use to come here when I was 14, i lost a great deal of weight just from everyones inspiration and motivating tips. now it is six years later. I joined the Military because i always wanted to. but i never thought that you could be fat and be in the military. sorry to those of you that get offended i know my weight is not at an at risk level but it is when you think about how much working out i do and how much stress i put on my body being at this weight and not losing it. i do not want to end up have destroying my joints just because im a little heavier then i need to be also by the military standards i am a fat female even though i have some muscle i have a lot of extra fat. my main concern is on my diet but as i drop so pounds i will be implementing a lot more exercise if any one has any feedback or even examples of their diets and food plans they use i would really appreciate it.

Ht. 5'8", Start: 225 lb, Today: 168.8 lb (BMI: 26), Goal: 150 lb - woohoo! broke out of the 170's (yet again..) but this time i plan on STAYING out of it. lol my first mini goal is to get to 165 again, so i've got to lose another 3.8 pounds, which i believe i can do within a week to a week and a half, then my second goal is 163 (the lowest weight ive ever been) and then onto 160. I know I can do it this time. I have to. If i don't do this I'll end up maintaining for the rest of my life, which while it is good to maintain, its not so good when i'm clearly not at the weight i want to be lol hope everyones doing great, good luck and keep up the good work!

Ht. 5'8", Start: 225 lb, Today: 170 lb (BMI: 26), Goal: 150 lb - okay sooooo, let's start this again lol. 2009 was a terrible year. I mean, nothing totally horrible happened, but I wasn't happy. I wasn't at a good place in my life, hence why any weight i lost this year, came back (i gained 7 pounds back). 2010 however... will be different. I'm FINALLY going to get down to my goal weight of between 145-155 (depending on how i look at that point.. its really too soon to tell) and STAY THERE. No more ups and downs, no more "I'll start tomorrow". I'm going to do this. If i really want 2010 to be a great year, I'll need to focus on my weight loss and healthy lifestyle more. It's not even so much a vanity thing for me anymore, I mean yeah I'd love to look great in a pair of killer skinny jeans (who wouldn't?) but I'm turning 21 in a week, and therefore I am officially an adult. (they say its 18 but mentally i think it's 21) and if I want to live a healthy... (view more)okay sooooo, let's start this again lol. 2009 was a terrible year.

I hope all of you get to your goals as well. 2010 should be a year of health. good luck guys! (view less)

Ht. 5'8", Start: 209 lb, Today: 209 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 160 lb - So I've been overweight for a while, but I was never really THAT bothered by it. But I was looking at my pictures from New Years Eve and I realized that I don't look as good as I thought I did. So I want to start losing weight. I'm joining weight watchers on tuesday because that is when the first meeting starts. But I feel I should probably start working on it now. I need massive help with motivation. It's just so hard to say no to all the junk food. I am in my second year in college. All my friends are pretty skinny but all eat really bad. I have to buy and cook my own food. It's so hard not to pinch in and get some take-out with all my friends or junking out on fries after a night out. Also, we go out a lot which means I'm drinking a lot of alcohol which is also very fattening. I just don't know where to start. I would really appreciate some advice :). Also I would love a weight loss buddy, I feel that would really help. My email is gotsports101@surewest.net, drop me an email. Thanks everyone :)
