Ht. 5'6", Start: 181 lb, Today: 147.6 lb (BMI %tile: 74), Goal: 130 lb - Hey guys!
I'm finally in the 140s! I just can't wait to be in the 130s now! heh ^^
I have sick for the past week with the flu so I couldn't really get back on track with my diet or exercising since its been like 9 days (a little over a week).
So me and my friend are planning to go hiking twice a week. :D I wanted you guys to know that having a weight loss buddy or just a friend to motivate you can really help! Don't give up guys!
I have a question; I'm trying to be 130 by JUNE 1ST. Thats 17 pounds. Is this doable? I know it gets tougher as you get closer to your goal weight. Thats about 5.6 pounds a month. Just hoping anyone can give me feedbacks and motivation. Thank you!

Ht. 5'10.5", Start: 175 lb, Today: 175 lb (BMI %tile: 91), Goal: 160 lb - i thought i would share this with you:
so i read a plan that you could lose 30 lbs in 3 months. (10 pounds a month is healthy, my doctor said so). it requires running (somewhat a lot)
so
week 1- in the evening, run 1 miles 6 DAYS in a row
week 2- in the evening, run 1.5 miles 6 DAYS in a row
week 3- run 2 miles in evening 6 DAYS in a row
week 4- run 1.5 miles at night AND morning 6 days in a row
week 5 til the end of the 3rd month- run 2 miles in the morning and evening EVERY DAY
and eat around 1300-1600 calories
it sounds healthy. i started it today.
neways good luck to you guys! :)

Ht. 5'5", Start: 159 lb, Today: 159 lb (BMI %tile: 93), Goal: 125 lb - Hey guys... It's been a while since I've been on here. I'd really like it if someone could maybe be my weight loss buddy? Preferably someone around the same age/weight. Just post a reply to this and give me your email. Or just post a reply and I'll post my email. Either one works for me. Hope everyone is doing fine and I wish you all good luck on your weight loss! :)

Ht. 5'8", Start: 170 lb, Today: 190 lb (BMI %tile: 94), Goal: 150 lb - Does anyone use SparkTeens or want a diet buddy? I've been trying to use Spark to keep track of my eating and exercise, and when I do update it, I eat less and work out more. Lately, however, I just haven't had the motivation to update everything daily. As a result, I've gained 20 pounds since November. Is there someone who wants to email daily or friend me on there so we can push each other to write down everything we eat?

Ht. 5'6", Start: 181 lb, Today: 149.6 lb (BMI %tile: 76), Goal: 120 lb - Hey everyone! So now I'm finally in the 140s!!! :D I never knew I was able to reach my mini goal challenge but I did with lots of hard work! I was wondering if doing cardio for 5 times a week for an hour at a 3.7 speed (slow I know! lol) and a mile of 3.60 was good? My friend told me that was basically jogging for beginners and if I wanted to lose more, especially now that I'm in the 140s and will only get tougher, I need to do more cardio as well as strength training. I was wondering what other workouts do you guys recommend? thank you!

Ht. 6'0", Start: 255 lb, Today: 255 lb (BMI: 35), Goal: 155 lb - its been a week since i started my goal to lose 100 pounds by jan 1st next year. I havnt weighed myself because i dont have a scale, although i just ordered one and will be able to see the numbers soon! hopefully im losing weight...i slipped up this weekend alot and drank a little bit which was a stupid idea becausae they were just empty calories that i def didnt need. hopefully it didnt hurt me too much! im going to work extra hard this week in the gym, lifting and eating healthy. hopefully ill have some good news when i get a scale and will be able to see those pounds shed. I know its only been a week but my stomach seems flatter, my boyfriend even said something this morning to me...he asked if i was trying to lose weight, and it was embarassing so i didnt say i was, but it made me feel great that he asked that. I dont know how he couldnt tell i was trying, i eat alot healthier and no desserts, but maybe he was just trying to be nice. I hope everyone is staying on track and good luck with everything !!!
