Hi Everyone. I am 18 years old and I go away to college. I'm 6 feet. Before college, I was already over-weight. I weighed about 245 pounds and was (at the time) trying to cut down to the early-200s. However, these past few months at college, I have ballooned into almost 260 (258 or 259 to be exact) pounds. I am quite upset about this because I can tell in the mirror that I have gotten bigger and I stayed at around the 240s for at least the past 3 years. I really want to try and get back to what I was (245) in a couple months and then try my hardest to work down to maybe 210 or 220 pounds. That would be awesome. I know it's still considered overweight, but since I am tall, it wouldn't show as much. How long do you all think it would take to lose about 50 pounds? Anyone have any food or exercise tips? I really appriciate all responses. Hope to hear from you soon. D L.

Im 15 and new to this site so here i go. I have always been active, and always in near perfect shape. I had cut legs from playing soccer all my life.

Last year, i tried out for the highschool team as an 8th grader and made JV.

I trained really hard all summer, even going to the gym for 3 hours every morning monday thru friday. Finally, the week before two-a-days (try outs), our school hired a coach that had experience with the U-19 usa team to put on a clinic for us. During the clinic, i fell on my left wrist, messing up tendans in it. I was pu in a sling and partial cast. Regardless, i began two-a-days the next week. Unfortunately, i ended up having to take the season off, because i hadnt given my body any rest for the past 4 years,as i had been playing year-round. Its been 7 months and im in the worst shape i have ever been in. I have lost alot of my muscular definition, and running capabilities. I am really trying to trim down the extra 30 lbs i have acquired. I have never been so self conscious and i am really having a hard time losing weight and regaining muscle. I could really use any help possible. THANKS (view less)

i am so sick of this battle... i started coming to this board over the summer i think.... like last spring... i weighed 185ish then... yea i weigh 203 now.... its so hard at school mainly.... i always end up buying lunch and buying foods that arent good for me but its just so hard.... and seriously the past 3 times ive said ok im gonna go back to the gym, ive gotten bronchituss.... its weird but its true.... i have it now and as soon as im healthy enough im goin back to the gym..... ive tried hard in the past but then i just eat badly and gain weight... all i have is a bunch of false promises to myself.... i rejoined weight watchers at like 202... lost a little, stayed the same, gained like .6 then i went away and now ive missed 3 weeks.... and ive gained... im a pound heavier then when i joined.... it just sucks because this is so hard.... i need some serious advice on like 3 things- what to bring for school lunch, some good exercises i can do at the YMCA, and just all around support.... if anyone is interested in emailing each other for support let me know....
