Okay, I'm one of the 'oldies' on this board (I've been on here for about 2 and a half years) and it has helped me, but I also struggle with some issues that are hidden behind everything that I can hide them behind. I've told no one, and I'm not about to tell anyone I know. I've lost about 30 pounds so far in the past 2 years, and i really need and want to lose about 20 more. Here are my problems which I have realized: I am compulsive and obsessive about my body. It's either eating or exercising, usually both, and I also have a poor body image, and I can look in the mirror one minute, see myself as pretty, look in the mirror the next second, and see myself as the ugliest thing in the world, and it doesn't help now that almost all my friends are getting boyfriends, and I just feel left out and not wanted. This is definately one of my low points, but I don't want to have them at all. Anybody have any suggestions?

Ive not done it yet but i used 2 be 12stone 1 ( 169 pounds ) i felt so sick. I become ill then i went down to 161 ( 11 stone 8 ) is what i am the now, id like to get down to about 9stone ( 124 pounds ) it will take me a bit but im not worried. Im a size 12-14 in clothes and im 5.6. I know i might not sound much but i really am. the great thing was though fitting into a tight 12 pair of pilot jeans :) when i lost weight. A thing for ppl as well, i wanna get down to a size 10 for everything so i bought a size 10 top and jeans and i hung em up in my cupboard. When i get down to 10stone ill try them on then 9stone, then if i wanna get down to 8stone ill do the same. Im doing this because it shows u how much u lost. Take a pic before and after ur deit and after ur diet try on a pair of ur old jeans! email me for to be friends : Play2win15@hotmail.com thanks! ( got msn 2 )

i have a problem and i can't exactly figure it out. u see, i use to be over weight but i lost like 10 pounds and now i am pretty good, but just a few days ago i went to a BBQ. every one brought somthing (espesially desert) and it was all on a table all together, like food heaven! so i couldnt' help but pig out. so i figured "well there goes my weight loss." but! the next day when i checked on the scale to see how bad it was, it turns out, i actually lost like 2 pounds! i figured the weight would gain up on me, but it didn't! can some one please explain this to me!

Hi all!!
I am 245lbs and 5'8. Right now I am watching my calories limiting myself to 1500 caloires a day which I think is plenty. And I am also going to a gym 2 hours a day. The gym thing can be expensive but if you stick with it, it really helps. I burn about 400 calories a day at the gym. It does work cause I saw a kid in my grade there last night and he was kind of chunky before school ended. I havn't seen him since school ended and he looked like he had lost at lease 20-30lbs! I asked him how he did it and he said that he has been on a diet for about 3 months and he went to the gym at least 3 times a week. So if you wanna lose weight and are willing enough to do at least SOME excersise I reccomend you go to a gym!

TO LUCY: You are absolutely not overweight. That is a realistic weight for your height. Being 5'7 means you probably have a large bone structure, and are a strong person. Did you know that the star soccer player Mia Hamm weighs 145 pounds? TO AARON: Study a little before you misguide people like that.

heya guys- i hope you can help me out, because i am sooo confused!! My mom is a doctor, and she says that if i want to lose weight i have to cut down on fats like cake and fries etc, and eat a lot of bread, pasta fruit and stuff like that. But my dad says i need to eat the same as what i normally eat but half as much, and my sister says i can't eat any carbs like bread or pasta because they make you fat and that i need to eat more protein. Who should i beleive? Which would work best? I have also started exercising, which is the only thing that my family agreed on for weight loss. I am 5'3 and 118. Has anyone got any ideas on what actually works: hgh carb, high protein or half the amount.
